Save Environment
Good Morning to my English Language Teacher and my fellow friends. I stand here today to give a speech entitled “Things That You Can Do to Save the Environment “.

Our environment is facing a serious level of pollution. We are also experiencing the phenomenon known as Global Warming. I am sure all of you have seen effects and heard the facts about it. So what can you, as individuals do about it ? Can you play a role in saving our already polluted environment? Yes, you can.

Start by doing these simple things. Firstly, recycle as much of your rubbish as you can. You can do this by following these steps. Sort the rubbish at home. Pack recyclable things like plastics bottles, old newspaper, tin cans, and cardboard boxes separately. Then, take them to a recycling centre. You can do this at least once a month.

Next, do not practice the open burning of rubbish. Dispose rubbish in rubbish bins. This rubbish collector wil dispose the rubbish that they collect at landfills. Organic waste can be made into compost. You can learn how to make your own compost through internet.

Another easy thing that you can do is to save electricity. Turn off lights, fans, and other appliances when not in use. Practice this both at home and in the school too. When you save electricity, you save the fuel burned to produce the power at power stations. This cuts down on harmful gases like carbon dioxide that are released into the atmosphere.

Lastly, plant more trees and other plants in order to stabilise the ecosystem. This is because plants release oxygen into the atmosphere that is needed for human beings and animals. Besides that, plants also do absorb harmfum gases that is released into in atmosphere.

These are just a few simple things that you can do. Find out more about saving the environment from the internet. Remember that when everybody pitches in, even a small contribution will make a big difference to our mother earth.

    Living on this earth is a privilege and unfortunately we sometimes take advantage of it. Stories of deforestation, air and water pollution really make a person think of just how much our planet is being harmed. A major concern is water pollution. Water covers at least 70 percent of the planet which makes our rivers, lakes, and oceans essential. Many of these bodies of water are being polluted and although they may be out of sight, they eventually help pollution increase. Actions should be made to stop the pollution of our waters before things get worse. If we want to decrease the amount of pollution it starts out by increasing the amount of recycling we do. It shouldn’t stop there. Not only should efforts to improve laws against water pollution be made but public awareness¬¬ has to be raised about this issue.…

    Tips to go Green Plant a tree. If every Indian family planted just one tree, more than a billion pounds of "greenhouse gasses" would be removed from the atmosphere every year. Drive less. This is a challenge in a society that loves its cars, but consider taking mass transit or riding a bicycle whenever possible -- even if its just once or twice a week. Carpool to work. If every commuter car carried one more passenger, we'd save more than half a million gallons of gasoline.

    So what can we do as individuals to help stop global warming? As individuals we can try to get global warming under control by slowing down the release of carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping “greenhouse” gases that we let into the atmosphere. We can contribute to this global cause with our own personal actions. Our individual efforts are very beneficial to the United States and Canada, where individuals release over 10,000 pounds of carbon dioxide per person every year. One of the first things we can do is improving our fuel efficiency; did you know that every gallon of gasoline burned puts 26 pounds of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere?(Seaman) You can boost the overall fuel-efficiency of your car as much as 30% by simple vehicle maintenance and attention to your style of driving.
