Tạm dịch: Trái đất là nhà duy nhất của chúng ta và chúng ta phải bảo vệ nó và chăm sóc nó nhiều nhất có thể
Ô nhiễm là một vấn đề thực sự lớn trên hành tinh của chúng ta và nó phải dừng lại ngay lập tức. Nó phải được dừng lại trước khi hành tinh của chúng ta bị tuyệt chủng. Có ba lý do chính, theo ý kiến của tôi, tại sao ô nhiễm nên được dừng lại.
Lý do đầu tiên tại sao chúng ta nên ngăn chặn ô nhiễm là ô nhiễm đang phá hủy môi trường chúng ta đang sống. Carbon dioxide là một đóng góp lớn cho ô nhiễm. Carbon dioxide ảnh hưởng đến khí hậu của chúng ta theo nhiều cách khác nhau. Cách nó hoạt động là một số "khí nhà kính" nhất định không thể thoát khỏi bầu khí quyển của chúng ta bởi vì chúng bị mắc kẹt. Lý do thứ hai tại sao chúng ta nên ngăn chặn ô nhiễm là nó cũng có ảnh hưởng đến chúng ta - con người. Ô nhiễm cũng ảnh hưởng đến cuộc sống con người và đó là một vấn đề lớn. Theo Tổ chức Y tế Thế giới, ô nhiễm không khí trong nhà từ việc đốt than hoặc nhiên liệu sinh khối như nguy cơ gỗ sống của hàng triệu người. Ô nhiễm không khí gây ra hai triệu người chết mỗi năm, chủ yếu là do bệnh tim và rối loạn hô hấp như nhiễm trùng và ung thư phổi.
Lý do thứ ba tại sao chúng ta nên ngăn chặn ô nhiễm là nếu chúng ta làm, chúng ta có thể sống lâu hơn trên hành tinh này. Nếu chúng ta không ngăn chặn ô nhiễm và sự nóng lên toàn cầu, điều gì đó thực sự tồi tệ sẽ xảy ra với chúng ta. Con người đã phá hủy hành tinh một cách nhanh chóng. Chúng ta có thể sống lâu hơn và mở rộng sự tồn tại của chúng ta trên hành tinh này để con cái chúng ta có thể sống trong một hành tinh mà không phải lo lắng. Trong ngắn hạn, ô nhiễm phải được dừng lại ngay lập tức. Trái đất là nhà duy nhất của chúng ta và chúng ta phải bảo vệ nó và chăm sóc nó nhiều nhất có thể. Ô nhiễm phải được dừng lại trước khi chúng ta hủy hoại hành tinh của chúng ta.
