Why and how should we

protect the environment

A short presentation of one of the world’s biggest problems to date.
Why should we protect the environment?
• We should protect our environment to create a better lifestyle for ourselves.
Otherwise we would be consciously participating in the calamities of destroyi
our planet, and humans, as well as all other living things on Earth would face
great loss.
How can we protect the environment?
• We can protect it by simply following these steps:
• 1) Reduce, reuse and recycle. Cut down on what you throw away.

• 2) Volunteer. Volunteer for cleanups in your community.

• 3) Conserve water. The less water you use, the less runoff and wastewater that eventually end up in the ocean.

• 4) Shop wisely. Buy less plastic and bring a reusable shopping bag.
Also, some things you can further do:
• 5) Use long-lasting light bulbs. Energy efficient light bulbs reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Also, flip the switch off when you leave the room!

• 6) Plant a tree. Trees provide food and oxygen. They help save energy, clean the air and help
combat climate change

• 7) Don’t send chemicals into our waterways. Choose non-toxic chemicals in the home and office!

• 8) Bike more. Drive less.

Thank you for your attention!
• Last, but not least, it’s our duty as people living on the Earth to take
care of it, because it gave us a place to live, to exist.
