情况？ circumstance; think also of 'situation'; I think you can have environmental circumstances. 'What circumstances gave rise to this situation?'. 'What are the circumstantial causes of the environmental problems?'
The two words refer to different concepts - circumstance is about cause; environment is perhaps a result.

In English, circumstance usually refers to an event/set be recents relevant to another action. For example, one could say:
"due to unforeseen circumstances, I cannot go to work today"
Environment, on the other hand, usually refers to the state of a place. For example, a tranquil environment might be a spring meadow. On the other hand, the environment can refer to Mother Nature as a whole.
I hope this helps to clarify things a little.

That is a very good question !
Both words refer to what is around you. "Environ" (French) and "Circum" (Latin) are the same word : around.
Maybe you could say that environment is the things around you that are passive, and circumstances are the things around you that control you in some way.
Sometimes environment means the natural world ("Don't pollute the environment.") But not always. And it isn't always physical ("Try to create a loving environment for your children.")
Sometimes circumstances refers to things that either decrease or increase your ability to act (money, weather, health).
But again, it is a very good question. The words are not the same, but they are very similar.

I only answer your question in English
The difference between circumstance and environment is :
+) Environment : everything surrounds you , the conditions that affects your behaviors and developments . All things such as people , activities , situations , etc can affect you , so you need change , adapt to them
+) Circumstance : the conditions and facts that are connected with and affect a situation, an event or an action.
