What doesn't pollute the earth? Look around: most of what you see or use in daily life pollutes. Factories, cars and trains do; so do cars and buses, which are important for travel but still pollute too much. Also people are tearing down rain forest to build more buildings, stores, etc. The question is what is going to happen to the animals that once lived there? If we tear down trees we won’t have enough oxygen. Trees give us carbon dioxide, if we have fewer trees the less we have of oxygen.
In the United States, many factories are polluting the air and water systems. So are labs, and in some cities they are being investigated to see if they have contaminated the water. If they haven't, what would cause people around the city to all get the same type of cancer? Rivers are polluted, which causes the destruction of fresh water and habitats. Laws should be put into place to limit this, but probably pollutants would end up going somewhere else. This seems to be a no-win situation. Although labs and factories create things we need, they also create thing we don't. Planes, trains and automobiles take us places we need to go. They can be fast and comfortable, but we are paying the price. San Bernardino, California, for example, is one of the worst cities as far as air pollution. The smog and grime travels into the valley from Los Angeles and turns the sky brown. The pollution from one city has to go somewhere, and in the case of Los Angeles, a lot goes to San Bernardino travels into the valley from Los Angeles and turns the sky brown. The pollution from one city has to go somewhere, and in the case of Los Angeles, a lot goes to San Bernardino .The ground, the air and the water have all been polluted. Different strategies have played out to make the health risks less. The more cars and buildings that are produced might help people, but they do not help the Earth.
The rainforest what is the rainforest? The rainforest is the earth's oldest living ecosystems, they are very beautiful. They contain over half the worlds animals and plants. I describe the rainforest as a jungle, with lots of trees and animals and plants and they need the rainforest to survive. While doing some research I found out some very shocking facts. I found out that the rainforest covered 14% of the earths land surface and now it only covers 6% and experts claim that if the rainforest continues to be cut down that the last remnants of the rainforest could be gone in less than 40 years. The rainforest is disappearing rapidly due to many reasons and one obvious one is the wood on the trees is being used for fuel and charcoal, another thing they use the wood for is to make furniture. There are many Tropical rain forests out there in the earth and people just want to tear them down! We the people of the earth are letting them do that. Ask yourselves this. Why?
Over the years, many people have forgotten about the animals of this planet. And most people wouldn't care less if another animal came to extinction. As long as the people have their new homes, and highways that will take off ten minutes to get to work, they don’t care what wildlife suffers when a new store goes up. A lot think one or two houses won’t hurt, but one house leads to two houses, and so on and so forth. The extinction of almost every animal could easily be avoided. If only humans would think about their "wants" after taking in the problems that already exist in that area. And chances are, humans don’t really "need" what they "want", and it would probably help the environment as well .Every animal has a reason, and place on this earth. We could help save these animals, without really trying. If we could think about the effects before bulldozing, we could save some much of our planet. Ever heard the call of the wild? What about the wolf howling in the distant mountains? For most people the answer is no. This is because the wolf was eradicated from most areas of our country when the white man decided that he wanted to settle the west. Most of the extermination was because ranchers and farmers lost a good deal of livestock to wolves. Wolves were selected for extermination by the US government until 1976 when the government declared the Mexican gray wolf endangered in the lower 48 states. The trapping and killing of wolves was done by private trappers, hunters, or ranchers. After wolves were declared endangered, several private enterprises sought to give the wolf a chance to come back from almost extinction.
Think about these problems; use your brain to think of ideas to help this wonderful world that protected us from earthquakes, comets, tsunami’s. The world is a place that gave us shelter and we are destroying it is that how we are saying thanks. Without the world I don’t know how we would ever survive!
