Save our planet, before it’s too late! Humans
have been living on this planet for two million year,
and in the last two hundred years humans have
made a mast of the planet chopped trees killed
animals, polluted air, land, water, e.t.c.
Because of that, we now have a lot of problems.
Ill name jast a few of them: the greenhouse effect,
killing forest and animals, water air and land
polluted, rubbish problems, nudear power, e.t.c.
It’s easy for us to see what we are doing to the
air we breathe water we drink garbage we throw
out! What about the habitat we don’t see?
We don’t see them they are for away from us.
What does it have it do with us?
It is difficult to understand, but everything on
the planet is interconnected and when something
goes wrong in some part of the world, everybody
loses.
Our Planet is in Danger!
Polluting gasses fall as acid rains. Large forests and a
lot of Lakes have been rained already. Smoking
chimneys and car exhaust pipes are pumping tons of
rubbish into the air all the time, and we breathe it in.
The air in Belgorod is very much polluted. People feel
it without any test. Doctors say that only 2 – 3 per
cent of healthy babies are born in Belgorod. The
water is very much polluted too. People can not bathe
in the Vezelka River.

A giant iceberg, the size of Hong Kong, is slowly
melting. It is the world’s largest iceberg. It broke
away from Antarctic. It was 152 km long
and 35 km wide. Now
it is 10 km shorter
because it is melting.
Many years ago people lived in
harmony with the environment because
industry was not much developed. Now the
situation is quite different. People all over the
world cannot ignore the problem of the
protection of the environment because of
modern industry and
the need for energy.
Newspapers and magazines
write a lot of about water
pollution, air pollution and
land pollution. There are some
laws and decisions on this
important question.
There are state
organizations and
international
conventions which
pay much attention
to this problem.
Many parts of the world
are crowded now,
much of our waste,
especially waste from
factories, electric power
stations, the chemical industry and heavy
industry are very dangerous. Fish dies in
the lakes, rivers and seas, forest trees die
too.
The problem of radiation has also become a very
important problem because it is very dangerous for
health of people. There is a science, named
ecology, which study the relation between people
and their environment. But each of us also do
everything possible to keep our environment clean
for ourselves and for the next generations.
We all love our native land, remarkably beautiful Russian
nature with its blue lakes and ribbons of rivers, edged with
thick forests with its endless expanses of fields meadows and
swamps with its varied animal and plant kingdom.
Nature is a source of
man’s prosperity, we are the
children of the nature and we
are eternally indebted to it. As
everyone admires the beauty
of nature each of us must at
the same time be filled with
the sense of responsibility
and concern for its
protectional and thrifty of its
riches.
Nature is an involved complex where all the components are
closely intermixed and interdependent. That means that
humankind must be very careful in usage of natural resources
in order to avert damaging consequences.
But let me down to the topic of
my report – the protection
of the environment. A great
helper in this noble task is
the science of ecology,
which reveals the links and
makes forecasts if the
people start imporer
business somewhere.
Besides the ecology faces
different programmers
connected with ecological
disasters and
environmental holocausts
like Chernobyl, for example.
Let’s have a glimpse of Russian nature. The lands and forests are
wonderful; we can find broad – leaved groves pine and fir forests.
The republic has over 10, 000 lakes. More than 58 types of fish in
our rives and lakes.
Every autumn 160 types
of birds migrate
southwards and
return to their native,
parts in spring. And
there are 286 types of
birds overall in
Russia.
