1.) ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Environmental protection is a universal concern. Today the danger to our planet
is increasing every day and in order to improve the situation both individuals and
government should work together.
Government should take measures that will help to improve the environment. It
should pass the laws that would make enterprises take measures for reducing of
pollution. Very strict regulations should be implemented regarding industrial
discharge. And the penalties for breaking rules must be painful.
There must be strict laws that protect endangered species. It would be a good idea
to educate people about the dangers of extinction. As a result, more people might do
voluntary work protecting endangered species.
Government should finance and support programs aimed at developing new
technologies. So scientists and engineers will be able to find the ways to reduce
pollution from enterprises and automobiles.
People must change their attitude towards the environment. There are a lot of
simple things we all should do to stop the destruction of the environment.
First of all people must keep their cities and villages clean. That means they
mustn't drop litter in public places and on the street. They should put it in a bin. And
the town council should provide more rubbish bins in all public places.
People should change their habits and behaviour. They should think before
pouring something down the drain, dispose trash into the garbage bins and collect
their garbage after picnics.
We must stop, or at least reduce, using aerosol sprays and other chemicals
because they destroy the ozone layer.
People should help to plant trees and create parks, they should take care of birds
and animals.
If people want to survive they must do their best to solve the environmental
problems. If we do nothing we are heading for disaster. If we take the action now
there might be a hope for the future. Our planet is our home and we need to protect
it. In other words, think green - live better.
