Nowadays, recycling, ecology, environmental protection ... are a part of everyday citizens, businesses, politicians; an awareness that has allowed the development of an economic sector and the creation of new jobs. The global warming has increased our awareness towards the planet and its future. In more and more countries, new regulations have been introduced by the government to reduce the amount of pollution. (Ross Gittins 2012) The industrial revolution of our century has put in danger our living resources, nature, and thus potentially putting at risk our own future lifestyle.…

How may of you believe that waste management and reduction is very important? Would you feel the same way if you were informed that other than being an eyesore, waste directly impact on your life?

Why are some people just thinking with their money and not with theirs heart? How could you throw your batteries, glass bottles, chemicals in the nature and think that they will disappear without consequences. I see it every day, do not you? We have to save the earth before it's too late.…
Deforestation is clearing Earth's forests on a massive scale, often resulting in damage to the quality of the land. Forests still cover about 30 percent of the world’s land area, but large areas the size of Panama are lost each year. The world’s rain forests could completely vanish in a hundred years at the current rate of deforestation.…
Technology has changed the world is so many positive ways. We can pick up the phone and call anywhere, anytime. We can travel on land, in the air, and even into space. We can identify someone using a simple drop of blood using DNA. How can something with such positive effects also have such profound negative ones? According to the textbook, Society and Technological Change, the most obvious and longest lasting consequence of technological advance is the alteration and destruction of the natural environment (Volti, 88). If each generation continues to destroy our environment, what happens when we get to the point of not having one? How are future generations supposed to breathe without air and trees? A Native American proverb says, "Man did not inherit the earth. He merely borrowed it from his grandchildren". This says to me that we need to save our earth so that our grandchildren have a chance to swim, climb trees, and enjoy the wonderful gift that we have "borrowed".…
The way we think about nature affects both our individual and social decisions. Various things may be affected, from the kind of food that we eat, to the products we buy, and locations we may attend. Different people have different feelings and ideas towards things. Some are concerned in preserving and protecting the earth; others don't care about the subject and believe it doesn't make a difference. The fact is, as everyday goes by the earth is being destroyed more and more; and we need more people to care. The point being not only to care for the earth, but care for yourself. Earth is the place you now call "home."…
With all the talk about going green, it seems much easier to let the cards fall where they may. What’s easier? Just throwing all the trash into one can, or sorting it into separate cans? As hard as it could be to clear the mess that this and past generations have left, it would be severely healthier than the alternative.…
Around the world, forests are being logged for timber and paper pulp and cleared to grow mono-crops like palm oil and soy while they are deteriorating from the impacts of global warming. Deforestation is a major driver of global warming, responsible for up to 20 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions–more than all the cars, trucks, planes, boats and trains in the world combined.…
capacities of our planet.” The Earth is being damaged badly daily. Humans are destroying their unique shelter. A rapid increase in the human population and an increase in the standard of living have resulted in widespread damage of the environment. People are destroying habitats and reducing the amount of land available for other organisms by building, quarrying, farming and dumping waste. The more society develops, the more modern technology develops, the more innocent animals will suffer. Therefore, people have to change their ways immediately or they are all going to die. To make it work, they should be aware of the environmental damage and take action to prevent further consequences in nature. Some of those serious problems, for example, natural disasters through deforestation, all the species of plants and animals disappear, and humans will eventually vanish. The human exploitation of natural resources also brings about the damages in nature, such as global warming and greenhouse effect. Then, they lead to animal extinction, plant loss, and the disappearance of the habitat of many species. As a result, the rapid exhaustion of the Earth’s natural resources becomes the most important issue nowadays that will cause many consequences in nature.…
Our planet is in great danger. For the last one hundred or so years, the people of earth have wasted and misused the natural recourses of earth. Several plans have been developed to stop the abuse of earth. Some of these plans I will discuss in this essay, many of which can be executed by any one. Environmental problems have become so complex that many individuals feel they can have no effect on them. Problems like oil spills, hazardous waste, loss of rain forests, endangered species, acid rain, the ozone layer, the municipal waste crisis can feel out of our control. At the very least, these problems require group and corporate action or government intervention. However, there are some things the individual can control. Our waste reduction and recycling activities can make a difference. That's why so many communities began voluntary recycling programs.…
The problem of saving the planet is nowadays very urgent. Global warming, pollution of the great oceans – these things are undoubtedly influencing or lives and might erase us, human beings, from the surface of the earth. Totally. And very soon. Mother Nature cannot stand or our behavior anymore and now it is time for us to think about our future. All the processes which have been launched already of course cannot be reversed or even stooped, but we can and we must slow them down in order to spend a few more decades here, on the planet Earth.…
