INTERESTING. AS AN ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENTIST. THE ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYST HAS DESCRIBED THE ADVANCED NATIONS OF THE WORLD TO BE THE MAJOR CONTRIBUTORS TO ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION AND HAZARDS. SHE CLEARLY STATED HOW THE WEALTHY AND HIGHLY PLACED INDIVIDUALS OF THE ADVANCED NATIONS MISUSE ITEMS WITHOUT THINKING OF ITS IMPACT ON THE IMMEDIATE ENVIRONMENT AND THE WORLD AS A WHOLE. IN HER RESEARCH, UNDER DEVELOPED COUNTRIES OF THE WORLD CONTRIBUTE LITTLE TO ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION, BUT SUFFER THE HIGHEST IMPACT OF THE POLLUTED ENVIRONMENT. SHE ALSO ADVISED THE WORLD TO LOOK INTO THE ISSUE AND NOT TO BE SELFISH BECAUSE OF HUMANITY.
