II. In five sentences, enumerate some environmental issues and challenges and what could
we do about it.

Global warming is the main issue that we are facing and it is directly connected to all
catastrophic events that we are experiencing. We must start using natural methods especially in terms
of transportation to lessen greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, production of man-made materials
is still ongoing and our resources are always on the frontline. It is obvious that this primarily leads to loss
of biodiversity, deforestation and soil erosion. We must restore our forests by planting more trees and
reminding everyone that everything we use today comes from nature which requires moderation and
conservation.
