The '''[[natural environment]]''', commonly referred to simply as the '''environment''', is all living and non-living things that occur [[nature|naturally]] on Earth or some part of it (e.g. the natural environment in a country). This includes complete [[ecological]] units that function as natural systems without massive human intervention, including all [[vegetation]], animals, microorganisms, rocks, atmosphere and [[natural phenomenon|natural phenomena]] that occur within their boundaries. And it includes universal natural [[natural resource|resources]] and [[physical phenomena]] that lack clear-cut boundaries, such as air, water, and climate, as well as [[energy]], [[radiation]], [[electric charge]], and [[magnetism]], not originating from human activity.
