The environment has been destroyed almost everywhere, therefore, it is necessary for human beings to act immediately to protect our Earth. As a high school student, I think there are quite a lot of things I can do to make our environment greener and cleaner.
First of all, trash definitely harms the environment; hence, I would never throw it away. Instead, I would put my garbage into categorized bins. Specifically, recyclable rubbish will be put into a bin, and the unrecyclable will be placed in another one. This would make it easy for those in charge to handle the trash, as a result, the environment would benefit.
Next, I would plant more trees in my house and my garden. In my opinion, if everyone did like me, there would be a lot of trees and plants; as a result, our environment would be much greener and cleaner. Also, I would protect the trees and plants in the parks, on streets, and so on by never cutting them down or taking their leaves or plucking flowers if not allowed.
Last but not least, raising public awareness of protecting their surroundings is another thing I would do. Many people do not know clearly about the effects of what they are doing to the environment every day. If they do, they may stop what they are doing. Therefore, I would show them the possible results from their bad activities to the Earth, and tell them what they should do to protect their own lives and their future generations. These can be done by letting them watch the relevant TV or radio programs, sticking posters on public walls, and especially acting as a model to encourage them to follow, and so forth.
In summary, environmental conservation should be every single individual’s concern, with no exception of me. The things listed above are what I promise to do to make our planet increasingly greener and cleaner.
