 Pollution is the preamble of all harmful things that are happening in our society, in short, pollution
is the main problem in our environment. It is the major problem in America and as well in the world, based
on my research. We know that pollution has three types; land, water and air. Pollution does not only damage
our environment but also us. Pollution affects us and it becomes very severe when it comes to our health,
wildlife, and it is also affecting our climate.

According to our different searches pollution has several effects on human health. As pollution rise
in this world, many are affected, mostly our health. Air Pollution is the main reason why we have many
diseases. Human body has many reactions when our health is affected; breathing polluted air puts us at a
higher risk for asthma and other respiratory diseases. Pollution are really dangerous mostly in our health
that some effects of pollution are hard to ignore. Like in air pollution it can cause several diseases like
watery eyes coughing and difficulty breathing and this are the common reactions. It is hard that we drink a
contaminated water in every day. It is painful whenever we see kids suffering from those diseases. It can
cause death of many people. It is because we are irresponsible in taking care of our nature and now, this is
happening in our environment. Air pollution, water pollution, soil pollution, and land pollution have effects
on our health, negative effects that will bring us down. Every day many people are in vain because they are
suffering in different diseases. It is very heartbreaking to see millions of people mourn, suffer and the worst
is they are dying.
Pollution also affects the animals living in the nature, such as animals. We know that according to
world animal protection, in the year 2014, 15 to 51 trillion of plastic were floating in the world’s ocean
weighing between 93,000 and 236,000 tones. We also know that our nature is one of the resources we have
that gave us many helpful things and conducive to our life, it gave us the things what we need. If we destroy
this resources, we might end up in to a chaos world that causing the wildlife to end. Burning plastics and
other stuff may cause air pollution that can contaminate plants and animals eat contaminated plants. Due to
this act, we should stop and preserve the wildlife for our living. Being responsible is what we need to have
a natural living with no contribution in pollution. Live with a contended life. Don’t abuse the resources that
we have because not all the time we have a resource that we can get right away. Appreciating things in this
world may help us to have the so-called ‘unity’. And if we attain that kind of state in our living, we can
achieve a good life, helping each other and loving this lovely creation of God has a huge impact on changing
this world. There’s a point in our life that we forgot that the Earth, our common home is not ours, it is just
a gift from our Heavenly Father.

We want to go everything beyond its limitations that merely results to destruction of it. We want everything
to go beyond its capacity that resulted to more damages than we expected to be. Though there are no signs
that we need to take an action for it, we still keep ourselves from hearing things. We supposed to take care
of our home but are doing it? Is it enough to restore its original beauty that we’ve destroyed? Are we happy
that our home is slowly dying? Are we ready to embrace the consequences of what we did to our Mother
Nature?

In conclusion, saving our Nature or our home is a must, since we are just the receiver of this lovely
gift from the Supreme being. Yes, we are thankful and at the same time grateful to have such a kind of
invention that makes our life easier but it ruins our nature and many has been polluted. Climate change
occurs when long term weather patterns are altered and whilst climate change is a natural process, human
activity is speeding up the natural process of climate change by disturbing rate. The human activity that
contributes to this unnatural speed of climate change is due to the unsustainable exploitation of the natural
world. Human activity is rapidly destroying our Earths capacity to nature life, provide clean food and clean
water.
