There are over seven billion people on the Earth so it’s not surprising that as the
Earth’s population started to grow faster and faster it caused some problems,
after some time not only the overpopulation become a huge problem but people
are the reason behind a lot of environmental problems too. There are many types
of pollution we caused just with our daily [Link], the air pollution. For
example we pollute the air everyday when we choose our car instead of public
transport, but we can help to reduce the air pollution if we buy an electric or a
hybrid car, of course it has their own disadvantages but it can help with the smog
in the cities. The smog is a serious problem in bigger cities, it can lead to asthma,
allergies or even [Link], the soil pollution. A lot of chemicals can get in
the soil from pesticides or rubbish that’s been left somewhere. Then these
chemicals can get into our or different animals’ food and in the end it can get into
our body and resulting serious health [Link] finally, the water pollution. It
can be the result of an oil spill, a factory disaster or if a ship sinks. If oil get into
the water it can kill many animals, it blocks the oxygen from getting into the
water, killing thousands of fishes. Not only the oil is a huge danger for every sea
animals, when our threw out plastic get into the water some animals get stuck in
them and die because ofthis. Water pollution is the reason behind a lot of animals
becoming endangered or even [Link] not only damage the environment
and many animals but our own kind too. In a lot of countries a big problem is the
famine and poorness. Whilewe waste food or water in some countries such as
India or many countries in Africa there are people who don’t even have proper
houses. The world’s other threatening problem is the global warming. The
seasons started to merge into two seasons, a freezing cold and a unbearable hot
season. Beside that the weather become more and more unpredictable. The
environmental problems can be worrying but there is a solution how we can help
to our planet, it’s called the 3 “R”s: reuse, recycle and reduce. Of course
companies could do the most effective changes but we, at home can do too same
changes which can reduce the [Link] example there are renewable source
of energies like solar or wind [Link] we have enough money, it’s worth to apply
solar panels on our roof. But wecan help with cheaper things too like using paper
bags instead of plastic ones or using public transport or bike instead of our car
can help a lot too or we can use locally made products, it may be a little more
expensive but in long term it’s worth it.
