Our Environment

Protecting our environment is important. Since the development of science and technology has improved for the past few decades, our environment had been harmed by our doings. Every day the amount of electricity wasted is unbelievable. Now people are more aware of the harming of our environment. That is why Earthlings are willing to participate in activities like Earth Hour, Earth Day and so on and so forth. Though, there are still who still don't care about what is happening around them. They don't change their usual routine to a more energy saving one. Seeing everything we are doing to Mother Earth, I am seriously afraid that my life wouldn't last long. Why can't people think for themselves? If they don't, why can't they spare a thought for others? There are still people who want to live on to persuade their dreams. There are still young people out there, wanting to live on and find their own lifes. We should not think that the Earth could not be saved. If that's what you think then you are wrong. There are still ways we can save the Earth. For example, we can turn on the fans instead of switching on the air-conditioning at night. Even if we on to the maximum for the fan, it still can save ten times less of electricity then turning on the air-con. I am not encouraging people to stop using the air-con. What I meant was to just switch it on once in a while. Because of our growing population, we had to get rid of trees to build houses. This is what we call deforestations and it will lead to soil erosion causing landslide to take lives away. Look what man had done to the Earth. There had been more cases of acid rain and, unlike the past, Singapore used to be a fresh aired country. We would not have to switch on the air-con and harm Mother Earth. So let's save the Earth together.
