- Could you check my homework? My hometask was write an essay about green living. I don't think that exists only one definition for "green living". This concept includes a lot of points of view and actions which can lead us to go green. In my opinion the green living is related to save our planet and think about what we'll leave to the next generations. I love the quote from the novel "The little prince" by Antoine de Saint Exupery: "When you've finished getting yourself ready in the morning, you must go get the planet ready", it means that we need to take care not only of ourselves, but of what surrounds us too. Everybody knows the earth is in trouble: every day we see new stories about global warming, acid rain, oil spills, deforestation, or nuclear waste. I think that's why people decide to live ethically. They understand that the choices we make affect not just us, but everybody everywhere; not just today, but the future; when we talk about "saving the planet" we are actually talking about saving ourselves! That's because we all need: clean air to breathe, clean water to drink, safe, healthy food to eat and safe places to live. "Going green" starts with small, simple actions that then will lead us to healthier, happier lives. I think that being an ethical man helps to reduce our impact on environment. As for me I think, that being an ethical man includes don't throw the trash in public places, take care of water (we can use showers, not baths; don't run water unnecessarily for washing, shaving, or brushing our teeth); eat less meat and instead fill our diet with organically-grown fruits, vegetables, and nuts; try to give up the car and use bikes, skateboards or public transport and change the light bulbs to energy-saving bulbs, for example. I think that people who live ethically have their own mantra - "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle" - shortly we should Reduce our needs, Reuse the resources and Recycle with buying things that can be recycled. We have only one planet to live on. If we do these simple actions, we'll be able to help oup planet and continue to live on it.
November 18, 201620 - Hello. Can you help me? The forests are the lungs of planet, they absorb carbon dioxide. It’s important to conserve the forests, especially because of global climate change. Also because there are many rare species of animals and birds, like in tropical forests, where we can find monkeys, parrots, toucans, a lot of different butterflies, etc. One of the most beautiful places like this is the Tahuamanu rainforest of Peru. This place is one of the most large reserves of mahogany or redwood. The furniture produced of this tree is very expensive, so illegal deforestation is one of the biggest problems there. In the past the rainforests formed fifteen per cent of Earth surface, but now they form just six per cent. If the deforestation continues, in 2020 we’ll lose ninety per cent of all rainforests. I think one of the solution for this problem is include this rainforest on the World Heritage List, like the rainforest of Madagascar or Indonesia.
