How I Made A Difference

Do you want to study or work in a clean environment? As long as everyone does their part by not littering, the environment will be free of litters as well as a conducive place for everyone to play and work in. When we litter, you are harming the environment. Currently, the ozone layer is getting thinner and thinner. As a result, many harmful sunrays are entering through it. They have caused global warming.

These sunrays are harmful to the skin and can cause skin cancer. At the moment, the cases of skin cancer patients have gone up. At the same time, there is a shortage of landfills for the rubbish. In the past, people would use their things for a very long time. Things that were bought were usually functional, not trendy. In today’s throwaway society, we have the tendency to buy and throw away things when they are no longer in trend. This bad habit increases the amount of rubbish in landfills. At the same time, rubbish in landfills will decompose and produce harmful gases. We should try to recycle and reuse the product when possible. Our schools are promoting the recycle programme. Thus, we should participate and do our part for the environment by spreading the message to our family, relatives and friends.

We should also educate our loved ones about the importance of conserving our environment. We can help by expressing awareness of our own environment. In addition, we can give a hand by educating or brainstorming ideas on how to conserve and save the environment.

Everyone should play their part in contributing his or her own ways to protect the environment. Otherwise, the consequences can be dire if no action is being taken. When these gases are released, they make the ozone layer thinner; allowing harmful sunrays to come through, causing a rise in the Earth’s temperature. This in turn causes the polar icecaps to melt, changing the world’s water levels; damaging homes and endangering the lives of both people and animals. The least that we can do to reduce the harm to save the environment is by using less plastic bag and if possible, use recycled bags, using public transport and carpool. Therefore, it is a shared responsibility when it comes to protecting our environment. We should be responsible for our own actions and ensuring that the environment is a conducive place for everyone as this is where we belong and we should help to keep this place a safe one for everyone to live in.
