There are many environmental factors in nature that can lead to problems when they interact with animal and plant life. These environmental factors include water, sky, land, and wind.

Environmental factors in the water can include water currents and how and where plankton drift. It can include wave strength and how much it causes the sand to recede in areas. The tide is also a factor which determines where an organism (including shellfish) lives on shore.

Environmental factors in the sky include the ozone layer and cloud formations. As the ozone develops soft spots or holes, it causes higher heat, including the melting of ice caps. Cloud formations can cause changes in the weather which will prevent or cause plants to grow or animals to migrate.

Another area where environmental factors exist is the land. There are all sorts of natural events including earthquakes and hurricanes, which can upset the natural balance of things. There is also acidity in the soil which can create problems in the way an animal feeds, as well as creating illnesses within the plants and animals.

Ultimately, an environmental factor is anything that happens in the environment that can play a role that affects the planet or the life on the planet, regardless of whether it is positive or negative. The actions that people take may or may not help with environmental factors. An oil leak is an environmental factor that we have control of, whereas earthquakes are not.

The more we know about environmental factors and what each one does, the better we can take control of the ones that we can do something about.
