We are all destroying the earth. The seas and rivers are too dirty to swim in. There is so
much smoke in the air that it is unhealthy to live in many of world’s cities. We have cut
down so many trees that there are now vast areas of wasteland all over the world. As a
result, farmers in parts of Africa can not grow enough to eat. In certain countries in Asia
there is too little rice. Wild animals are quickly disappearing. For instance, tigers are rare
in Idia now because we have killed too many. However, it isn’t enough simply to talk
about the problem. We must act now before it is too late to do anything about it. Join us
now. Save the Earth. This is too important to ignore.
