Save Our Mother Earth

Our Earth is the most beautiful planet in our solar system. As far as we know, Earth is the
only planet that has life.
Before 500 A.D., man had a good relationship with Mother Earth. But since humans
developed cities and industries, the modern lifestyle has changed. Man has been using and
misusing natural resources up to the limit. Now we are tearing up remote corners of the planet
looking for crude oil and coal, and our forests and wild animals are disappearing. Our environment
is totally polluted: we drink polluted water, inhale air full of dust, and eat food with traces of
pesticides and other toxic chemicals. Hence, we are suffering from diseases. As a result of human
activities, the ozone layer has a hole, the sea is rising, and the ice caps of Antarctica and Greenland
are melting. Now global warming is warning us that climate change is coming. Mother Earth is in
danger; life on Earth is in danger. Let us come together to save our life-giving and life-saving Mother
Earth.
