The following is a student's essay about "What can we do to improve the environment?"
Global warming is now gaining attentionas one of the global issues. I think it is good for each family to take part in activities. For example, we should keep the air conditioner at a low degree. We should not leave water running. While my father is brushing his teeth, he always leave water running. When I see him doing so, I stop the running water, saying, "Don't leave the water running! Don't waste it." Then, he came not to do so. It is important for each of us to be careful about everything in our life.
Also, the forests destroyed for the benifit and livelihood of people are increasing. I was sad to hear the news that a koala got a serious burn because of slash-and-burn farming in Australia. I think it is threatening not only the environment but also animal life. Tree planting is effective. Animals and insects can get homes again and decreasethe amount of CO2.
Therefore, we should continue to think about living with nature.
