The planet Earth is only a tiny part of the universe, but it's the only place where human beings can live
Today, our planet is in serious danger Acid rains, global warming, air and water pollution, over population are
the problems that threaten human life on Earth. Who is to blame for the disaster? The answer is simple: all of us.
Our forests are disappearing because they are cut down or burnt. If this trend continues, one day we won't have
enough oxygen to breath.
The seas are in danger. They are filled with poison: industrial and nuclear waste, chemical feruilizers and
pesticides. The Mediterranean is already nearly dead: the North Sea is following. The Aral Sea is on the brink of
extinction. If nothing is done about it, one day nothing will be able to live in the seas. Every ten minutes one kind
of animal, plant or insect dies out for ever. If nothing is done about it, one million species that are alive today
may soon become extinct.
Air pollution is another serious problem. In Cairo just breathing the air is dangerous --equivalent to
smoking two packs of cigarettes a day. The same holds true for many Russian cities. Factories emit tons of
harmful chemicals. These emissions have disastrous consequences for our planet. They are the main reason for
the greenhouse effect and acid rains. An even greater threat are nuclear power stations. We all know how tragic
the consequences of the Chernobyl disaster are.
Fortunately, it's not too late to solve these problems. We have the time, the money and even the technology
to make our planet a better, cleaner and safer place. We can plant trees and create parks for endangered species
We can recycle litter. We can support green parties and put pressure on those in power. Together we can save the
planet and all of us with it.
