IN school we are all taught about pollution and how it is bad but no one, except for a few individuals, actually makes an effort to fight it.

If we want to enjoy a peaceful, comfortable and ‘fresh’ environment we need to take care of our surroundings.

We keep growing in numbers and taking more land and space, using more water and driving more cars. This ends up having a negative impact on the delicate balance of nature.

We can restore this balance by working together. We can make energy-efficient houses or find an alternative source to fuels that produce less pollution. We can also stop using cars or generators which use diesel and opt for solar options. People can also start planting more trees. If we take these small steps, I think we can save our environment.
