▶ Your Answer :
I think if many people care about environmental problems (such as pollution or global warming), these environmental situations are likely to improve in the future. Overpopulation in this Earth has been a serious problem to our environment. Overpopulation caused people to destroy the nature to build places for human life. Because of this, more gases and energy are used, and this led to air pollution, which is a major factor of global warming. However, I believe it is possible to improve these environmental problems if people care more about it.
First of all, in order to improve the environmental problems, people should save energies and reduce the amount of destroying nature. To do these, we should put these three actions into a practice. Reduce, recycle, reuse. First, reduce consuming natural resources. For example, save water, electricity, or papers by turning off the faucet while not using it, plug-off any non-using electronic device, or using only as much toilet paper as you need. Second, recycling all wasted or spent natural resources, aluminum, glass, steel, or papers, to reduce the consumption. Finally, reusing materials made of natural resources.
Secondly, reduce the amount of carbon dioxide will help improve environmental problems. Using less air conditioning and planting a tree will save much carbon dioxide. Adjusting temperatures of the air-conditioner just 2 degrees lower in winter and higher in summer could actually save about 2,000 pounds of carbon dioxide each year. In addition, plants absorb carbon dioxide and give off oxygen, so if we plant many plants, it will reduce the amount of carbon dioxide and increase oxygen. A single tree will absorb about one ton of carbon dioxide during its lifetime.
To conclude, as I mentioned above, doing this small activities seems like would not do anything. However, if many people care about environmental problems and do these things will really improve our environment. Carbon dioxide will be reduced, less energies will be consumed and eventually, less destroying of nature. Therefore, I believe if many people care about environmental problems and put efforts in it, these environmental situations are likely to improve in the future. |
