The environment is the surrounding set of conditions in which an agent operates.

The environment plays a major role in our decisions and actions. We often interact with each other indirectly through the environment, for example in editing this WOW, or in shopping at a store. Also, we interact with the environment itself, which provides many of the challenges and opportunities in our lives.

A good environment suggests and enables helpful actions. Conversely, a bad environment interferes with the accomplishment of goals.
