Writing - The environment and me
As everybody knows it the climate is changing.
People try to change their life habits but do they really do everything they can? What are the consequences and the solutions for this problem? Is it too late or can we still change something to preserve the earth in order to have enough ressources in the future. This is the challenge of the third millenium.
I am going to talk about one typical day of my life. You are going to discover what a fourteen-years-old teenager thinks, sees and finally does concerning this phenomenon.
Yesterday I got up at six o'clock a.m. and I had a bath. After that I had my breakfast and I ate food from abroad. Then I washed my teeth but I let the water run. I went to school by car and when I was there I threw all my papers on the classroom floor. At noon I ate some meat from Brazil and some fruit from Mexico.
These are actions that some people in the world do and I hope mentalities will change soon. Today when I get up I try to eat and drink local products like Swiss cereals. Then I go to school on foot but before I leave I do not forget to turn off the lights at home and I close the windows. During the break I drink a coke and then I put the bottle in a special recycling dustbin. I eat an apple because there is no plastic around it.
When I have a day-off to go to town, I often see people in their cars who pollute the air. I prefer taking the bus because I think that it pollutes less than cars do.
In the evening after the shower I usually watch TV and I hear that the ozone layer is reducing and I'm scared that temperatures will rise too high. Before I go to bed I do not use the "stand-by" button for the television but I switch it off. I go to bed and I dream that I go on holiday by train, not by plane!
In order to preserve our environment I think there are a few things everyone can do: We can preserve some species that are disappearing like tigers, giant pandas, polar bears and so on. People can protect the trees and plant some new ones. One important action could be to recycle plastic bags and use cotton and paper bags. We also need to collect and recycle the rubbish. Human beings have to avoid burning rubbish and recycle as much as possible. We can all do something to change the world. We have to keep on protecting the environment.
Best regards
