| žala | damage (An injury or harm impairing the function or condition of a person or thing) | |
| žala | harm | |
| žala | injury | |
| žala aplinkai | environmental damage (Harm done to the environment, e.g. loss of wetlands, pollution of rivers, etc.) | |
| žala aplinkai | environmental damage | |
| žala dirvožemiui | soil damage (Soil impaired as a consequence of human activity. A study financed by UNEP, reporting in 1992, found that about 10,5% of the world's vegetative surface had been seriously damaged by human activity since 1945. The study found that much of the damage had been masked by a general rise in global agricultural productivity resulting from expanded irrigation, better plant varieties, and greater use of production inputs, such as fertilizers and pesticides. More than 1/3 of the damaged land was in Asia, almost 1/3 in Africa, and 1/4 in Central America. Some land had been damaged beyond restoration. The greatest sources of soil degradation were overgrazing, unsuitable agricultural practices, and deforestation) | |
| žala miškui | forest damage (Reduction of tree population in forests caused by acidic precipitation, forest fires, air pollution, deforestation, pests and diseases of trees, wildlife, etc.) | |
| žala vandeniui | water damage (Water damage can be caused by flooding, severe storms, tidal waves, seismic seawaves, storm surges, etc.) | |
| žala vandeniui | damage to water | |
| žala vandeniui | water damage | |
| žala žemei | land damage | |
| žalai dirvai | field damage (A decline in the productivity of an area of land or in its ability to support natural ecosystems or types of agriculture. Degradation may be caused by a variety of factors, including inappropriate land management techniques, soil erosion, salinity, flooding, clearing, pests, pollution, climatic factors, or progressive urbanization) | |
| žalia daržovė | green vegetable (A vegetable having the edible parts rich in chlorophyll and forming an important source of vitamins and micronutrients) | |
| žaliadumbliai | blue-green alga (Microorganisms, formerly classified as algae but now regarded as bacteria, including nostoc, which contain a blue pigment in addition to chlorophyll) | |
| žaliasis koridorius | green corridor (Avenues along which wide-ranging animals can travel, plants can propagate, genetic interchange can occur, populations can move in response to environmental changes and natural disasters, and threatened species can be replenished from other areas) | |
| žaliasis pastatas | green building (The self-contained dwelling where man simulates the ways of ecosystems, i.e. his wastes are converted to fuel by anaerobic digestion for methane production and the residues from the digestion are used for growing food. The food residues are composted and/or used for methane production. Solar energy is trapped by the greenhouse effect and used for house, crop and water heating. A windmill would be used for electricity. Thus, given sufficient space, sunshine, rainfall and wind, the ecohouse is in theory a self-contained system recycling its own wastes and using the sun as its energy input) | |
| žaliasis viešasis pirkimas | green public procurement | |
| žaliava | raw material (A crude, unprocessed or partially processed material used as feedstock for a processing operation) | |
| žaliavinė nafta | crude oil (A comparatively volatile liquid bitumen composed principally of hydrocarbon, with traces of sulphur, nitrogen or oxygen compounds; can be removed from the earth in a liquid state) |
