Abstract
The term "environment" in the Environment Act, (No 8 of 1998), is defined as "all natural and social systems and their constituent parts, and the interaction of their constituent parts, including people, communities and economic, aesthetic, culture and social factors". Human activities impact its natural and social environment in many ways. Where the activity involves the use or exploitation of its natural resources the impact could have negative effect on its natural environment. The use of its natural resources grows with its human population and hence the impact on the environment.
