THINK OF THE FUTURE!
The population of the world is growing very fast. In the last 40 years it
has doubled. By the year 2200 it will be about 10,000 million. Our cities will
be much bigger. There will be more factories and more roads. We will need
more water and more natural resources. Experts say that we must change the
way we use energy and natural resources now.
Every day we throw away millions of tones of rubbish. Half of this is paper
that we can use again. A typical family in Europe or America throws away
more than I tone
of rubbish each year but we can recycle most of this. If we recycle things, we
can save money, energy and natural resources. Recycling the New York
Times newspaper, for example, will save 75,000trees every week.
A lot of the rubbish that we throw away is biodegradable. Plastic,
metals and chemicals will not disappear for hundreds of years. We also
produce a lot of unnecessary things such as packaging. All of this pollutes the
air, the land and the water. Pollution will be a very big problem in the future.
We must avoid using no biodegradable materials. We must also reduce the
amount of unnecessary things that we produce and use. In shops, for,
example we can say “No, thanks” to the packaging that comes with the things
we buy. Many natural resources are not renewable. Coal, gas, oil, metal and
mineral will finish one day. Other resources take a long time to grow, such as
trees or they are not always available, such as water. We have to reduce the
amount of resources and energy we use. We also have to find alternative
ways to make energy. We can use the sun, the wind, the sea and the heat of
the Earth.
