DISCUSION ESSEY

We have learned to respect the Earth or World?

We haven’t learned to respect the Earth, human begins cannot respect the poor or starving, for the same reason they don’t respect the land. New technologies offer us alternative routes to renewable energies that don’t pollute the atmosphere, but we still rely on fuel.

We drive cars and other vehicles powered by gasoline or diesel engines, we use electricity from central plants that burn coal, natural gas or oil, and we burn wood, charcoal, natural gas and coal for cooking and heating. All these activities increase the atmospheric concentration of CO2, a gas that traps heat from the Sun and that also destroys the ozone layer in the atmosphere.

We are destroying the planet slowly thanks to the deforestation, air pollution, urban sprawl, global warming, landfills, pesticides and overpopulation.

The solutions are many, but we should all agree. But this is impossible, because many people don’t care about what happens to the planet. Few people are as concerned and try to find solutions.

The solutions are very expensive. These solutions are: reforestation, clean air, clean water, community plantings, organic farming, solar energy, and more.

Personally, I believe that if we all started small steps to help the earth, we would get it to recover and in this way we would be respected
