Caring for nature--overpopulation
杭垓中学 潘虹
What is nature? Its everything that exists in the world independently of people, such as plants and animals, earth and rocks, and the weather.
Now more and more people are focusing on the nature. It is no doubt that the nature is important to every human being. No nature, no life. Because of the supplies of the nature, we have lived happily for a long time. And we started to gain everything available from the nature. And this lasted so long a time.
Today, people have discovered that the nature around is getting worse and worse.What is threatening the nature? Air and water pollution, overharvesting of plants and animal species, overpopulation and so on. Overpopulation is the biggest source of pollution. Let`s take overpopulation as an example.What does verpopulation feel like? When we move slowly through the city in a taxi, when we enter a rowded slum district, when the temperature is high and when the air is thick with dust and smoke, the streets are crowded with people. The streets seem alive with people. People eating, people washing, people talking, people sleeping, people visiting each other, arguing and screaming. People relieving themselves. People pushing their hands through the taxi windows, begging. people, people, people, people. As we drive slowly through the crowd sounding, the taxi`s horn, the dust, heat, noise and cooking fires made it like a scene from hell! I admit, frightening.
To the nature, overpopulation is a big problem. More people, more pollution. And the big population is threatening the nature every second.
For most of the developing countries, it is a good idea to control the population growth. For example, china has carried out birth control for years, and this plan has a great effect on the world population.
If the population continues to increase, if the air and water continue to be polluted, if we do nothing to protect the nature, wild-plant and wildlife species will be declining. By protecting nature, we protect ourselves.
Let`s unite together, hand in hand ,we stand all across the land. We can make this world in which to live. Hand in hand. take good care of our nature. |
