Our World

Vincent Meng/student/Mission San Jose

Our world is slowly becoming more and more polluted. The amount of pollutants in the world’s atmosphere has increased dramatically in the past decade alone. All this pollution has caused many effects ranging from hazardous acid rain to many health problems for humans and animals alike. However, this is a problem that CAN be solved. Many of the things we use daily contribute to air pollution such as the burning of fossil fuels and wrong disposal of toxic substances. We CAN change our ways to make our planet, our home, clean again.

You may think that just doing something won’t make much of a change but that is not correct; by doing a very simple contribution such as walking to school and not driving a car, you are helping reduce your own carbon footprint. This one change can be extremely effective if you have more people contributing to it. If we all come together and work as one, we will be able save our planet.

 

Now it’s your turn
CAN you help change the world?
