Abstract

Events have direct and indirect connections with the environment. Events can have
economic, social, cultural and physical impacts on the environment. It can be argued that most
events often have common environmental impacts. Firstly, they contribute to the depletion of
natural resources as well as to air, water, and soil pollution. Secondly, they decrease the
numbers and varieties of plants and animals and ruin their habitats.
