Nowadays, people polluate so much nature that it is already "suffocating", trying to still survive. Creating new things, mankind forgets about trees, seas, oceans, plants, animals and so on. Unfortunately, myself, I am only one person, so I cannot change the whole world. On the other hand, I can change my befaviour towards nature so that I won't worsen it anymore.
For example, many people throw the garbage everywhere instead of doing it into the right places - something I do regularly (I mean, I only throw the garbage into the right places). I am not into killing animals, so if I go to the forest, I only do it in order to breath in fresh air. Also, Saturdays have become the days when my neighbours and I are cleaning our yard to make it more beautiful.
I could do a bigger list of what I am trying to do in order to fight against polluation, but now, I would like to see yours!
Have a nice day!
Sincerely yours,

Some people say that damage to the environment is the biggest problem facing the world. However, other people say that there are other problems that are more important.
Some people think that environmental problems are the most dangerous whereas others don’t agree.
I think that nowadays environmental catastrophe is the biggest threat. First of all, global worming can bring us a lot of troubles. If the ice melts, a lot of countries will be flooded. Second, Ozone holes can cause the death of a lot of lands. Also bad food, air and water can be the reason of various diseases.
At the same time there are people who say that overpopulation, lack of food and nuclear war can be even more dangerous.
In my opinion these people have a point. These threats can kill our planet too. Nevertheless, they are easier to control than environmental problems. Nuclear moratorium, new technologies allow us to solve these problems.
In conclusion I'd like to say that if we weigh all the facts that say that danger to the environment is the biggest problem against the ones that support other threats, we'll see that the facts that support the statement outweigh those against.
