Environment Essay
The world would be a better place if we took care of the environment. The environment is basically what is letting us live. Nature provides us food, a place to live, water, and shelter. The environment provides us rain for drinking water and for plants, and crops to grow. We should give back to the environment. Some people do but then there are others who couldn't care less. Some people do things that help the environment like using solar power or recycling. But other people litter and just treat the environment like they don’t need it, but the truth is we do need the environment.
One of the ways we could take care of the environment are to stop littering. We need to start to make bigger threats and punishments to the people who do litter. Littering is just as bad as attempted murder, except we are murdering the environment. All the environment does for us is protect us. We basically depend on nature for resources, food, water, shelter. We should start putting more recycle bins in more places. Like if you’re in the park there should be a recycle bin and a trash bin right next to each other spread over the whole entire park. That way the people who litter can’t say that they couldn't find a trash can nearby.
We could start using more solar power. Solar power equipment produces none of the carbon, methane or particulate emissions that fossil fuels produce. We have been struggling since the beginning of the fossil fuel age for oil, gas, and other energy sources. But with solar power equipment we don’t really need those resources. Fossil fuels cause oil spills (which kill many animals), global warming, air quality deterioration, and acid rain.
We need to start recycling. If no one recycled then we would probably all die from toxic gases and HORRIBLE trash stink. If you think your trash can smells bad imagine the whole world smelling like that. The Earth’s water would be contaminated with filth and we would have no water. The biggest problem: all of our resources would soon disappear. If we recycle then we reduce pollution, reduce landfills, conserve materials, save energy, save lives and money.
Some easy and quick ways to help the environment are change your light bulb to fluorescent. Turn off your computer at night. Recycle glass. Hang dry your clothes. Recycle your newspaper. Plant a tree. Turn off lights. Use rechargeable batteries. These are just a few of the hundreds of things you could do to help the environment.
The environment is everything. We need to take care of it. When you’re done with a bottle throw it in a recycling bin. Throw away your trash, don’t litter. Use solar power equipment so we don’t cause oil spills, which kills animals. And finally, plant a tree. It’s a quick easy way to help the environment.
