Abstract
The environment of Iran is constantly changing in recent years and this issue cannot be ignored. Of the critical environmental crisis should refer to global warming, overcrowding, decreasing natural resources, garbage disposal, ozon layer destruction, deforestation, rainfalls, water pollution, public health issues, and genetic engineering. Men around the Iran are experiencing new and challenging environmental problems daily. Some of these problems are likely to affect the health of the ecosystem, but somehow they change the recent landscapes. The planet is on the verge of a massive environmental crisis. Environmental problems in Iran also make human beings vulnerable to natural disasters occurs currently and in the future, as well.
