Abstract
The protection of environment and natural resources is an important part of development. Environmental protection contributes to improving human health conditions, sustaining agriculture and other primary production. Without adequate initiatives to protect environment development activities are affected. Information and communication technologies (ICT) present new way in which information and knowledge can effectively be shared to enhance developmental activities including environmental protection. Information and communication technologies (ICT) are a set of technological tools and resources that are used to transmit, store, create, share or exchange information. The use of ICT is reducing the dependence on environmental resources to reduce environmental pollution caused by inappropriate use of natural resources. ICT has both positive and negative effects on the environment. Whereas ICT tools are used to improve energy efficiency, resulting in reduced CO2 emissions and environmental pollution. The creation and use of ICT tools is rapidly changing human lives. The impact of pollution on the environment and the improvement in the quality level of safety systems and the applications of ICT systems in environmental protection have been presented in this paper
