Abstract

There is a reciprocal relationship between man and environment as man influences and has influenced the environment. The environment also influences men's overall well-being. There are various studies which have reported about the impact of environmental change on the physical health as well as mental health and social behaviour of the person. As far as psychological well-being is concerned there is a paucity of research in the area of relationship between overall psychological well-being and environmental change. This theoretical paper is an attempt to; First: compile research in this area. Second: investigate research in this particular area. Online databases such as Google Scholar, Pubmed, Science direct, Shodhganga have been searched to collect the data. Based on the reviewed literature it could be concluded that environmental change has not only affected the physical climate but the psychological climate too. It has a vivid effect on the health and well-being of mankind. Findings of this paper will help in further designing some empirical study for both investigating and proposing some measures to intervene in this relationship so that the psychological well-being of the man could be enhanced and the equilibrium in the environment could be maintained.
