April 22 is Earth Day. Everyone on earth should care about and protect the earth!

First, greenhouse effect(温室效应) is a very important reason for the change of the earth. People give out too much energy into the air every year. It makes the earth warmer.

On a Pacific island, 100 people have to move to higher ground because the sea is rising. These people can no longer live on the coast. Before that, two islands without people went underwater in 1999.Scientists say that the seas can rise by nearly one meter by 2100.
