Keep Our Environment Clean

About two hundred years ago man lived in greater harmony with his environment because industry was not much developed. Today the situation is quite different. People all over the world are worried about what is happening to the environment because of modern industry and the needs for more and more energy. Newspapers and magazines write more about water pollution, air pollution and land pollution.

Now many parts of the world are very crowded. The places we live in are becoming dirtier every year. People live in big cities and much of our waste, especially waste from factories, electric power stations, the chemical industry and heavy industry are very dangerous. Pollution from our cars and factories is also slowly destroying historic cities.

The Earth is our home. We must take care of it, for ourselves and for next generations. This means keeping our environment clean. The importance of this task is pointed out by ecologists and scientists who study the relation between living things and their environment. Common causes of damage are smoke from factories, car exhaust fumes, throwing away the industrial waste into the seas and rivers, cutting down tropical rain forests. This increases carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

The most problems that all countries of the world face are:

The ozone hole: recent research shows that there is now a hole in parts of the ozone layer. (The ozone layer is a layer of gases which stop harmful radiation from the sun reaching the earth).

Global warming: an increase in world temperature caused by an increase in carbon dioxide.

Acid rain: rain that contains dangerous chemicals. This is caused by smoke from factories.

How can we help keeping our environment clean?

• 
  Plant more trees. Don’t waste. Don’t throw away bottles, newspapers, etc. Take them into a bottle bank or newspaper bank. They can be recycled.
