Environment is a combination of the various physical and biological elements that affect the life of an organism.
Although it is common to refer to ‘the" environment, there are in fact many environments eg, aquatic or terrestrial, microscopic to global, all capable of change in time and place, but all intimately linked and in combination constituting the whole earth/atmosphere system.
