Save Our Earth From Global Warming

By MENGTEK LY

The weather is getting hotter and hotter and it is because of the global warming usually caused by pollution, so we must find ways to reduce it.

We should start planting more trees in order to reduce pollution and also global warming. Trees can absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen. They are the integral part of the natural atmospheric exchange cycle on the earth. A single tree can absorb one ton of carbon dioxide during its lifetime.

We also can save it by reducing, reusing, and recycling. Whenever we go shopping, we should buy the materials which can be reused and recycled such as paper, plastic, newspaper, glass and aluminum cans. We should have a recycling program in our home or school. If there isn’t a recycling program at home or school, we should make a request to our parents or head teachers. It is also a good way to reduce the carbon dioxide.

We should drive less and drive smart. Less driving can reduce the emissions which get out from our vehicles. Besides saving gasoline, walking and biking are good forms of exercise, too. We can take public transportation to school if we are lazy to walk or bike. If we want to drive our own vehicle, we must make sure that our car is running efficiently. For example, keeping our tires properly inflated can improve our gas mileage by more than 2-3 percents. The gas which we save not only helps our budget, but also keeps some of carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere.

To make our environment cleaner and more beautiful, take your stand.
