We describe the effects of environment on low-mass star formation, from the perspective that most stars in the galaxy form in dense clusters and aggregates in GMCs, often in the presence of massive OB stars. First, we discuss the observational evidence for circumstellar disks around stars of the Trapezium Cluster, and how they are affected by their environment. Second, we examine the more distant M 16, where photo-evaporation by OB stars may disrupt the star formation process, and may inhibit the development of circumstellar disks.
