Environment

People are more worried about the environmental problems. Nowadays there are lots of problems such as
global warming, deforestation, acid rain, traffic fumes.

Firstly, I would like to talk about global warming. The ozone layer around the earth is very thin so the ice
caps are melting and the temperature is getting higher which causes global warming. It’s very dangerous to
lie in the sun at midday, because the harmful rays of the sun can cause skin-cancer.

Secondly, rain forests are cut down. Lots of animals and plants are becoming extinct or losing their natural
habitats because of deforestation.

As for acid rain trees and animals all over the world are dying because of acid rain. Cars and factories
produce a lot of dangerous gases which enter the atmosphere. There, they mix with water and this mixture
falls back to the ground.

Moreover, factories not only pollute the atmosphere, but they also affect the water when they discharge toxic
waste into the world’s lakes, rivers and seas. Oil gets into the seas and oceans from oil rigs and tankers, too.
Polluted water can kill animals and cause diseases. Bathing in our natural waters isn’t safe, either.

To protect the environment, we have to recycle as much as we can. We should use renewable types of
energy like wind and solar energy.
