Environmental Pollution

With the continuous development of world economy and the growing world population, environmental pollution attracts our attentions. Environmental pollution is one of the most serious problems that mankind faces today. Air, water and soil are necessary to the survival of all living things, but they all harmed by pollution. Polluted air can cause illness, and even death. Polluted water kills fish and other marine life. Pollution of soil reduces the amount of land on which we can grow food. Environmental pollution also brings ugliness to man’s naturally beautiful world.

There are a lot of reasons causing the problem. For example, exhaust from automobiles causes air pollution. Factories discharge much of the material that pollutes air and water. Too much fertilizer or pesticide can ruin soil. So we should be responsible for the environment around us. We can take effective measures to protect our environment. Firstly, it’s best for us to ride a bike to school, don’t take a bus or a taxi. Secondly, scientists and engineers should work to find ways to lessen the amount of pollution that such things as automobiles and factories cause. Thirdly, government should pass and enforce laws that require businesses and individuals to stop or cut down on certain polluting activities. And lastly, we had better not cut down the trees.

I think solving the problem depends largely on our responsibility to society and environment. If the sense of responsibility is greatly aroused ,harmony between man and the environment will not be far away.
