Save our Earth



This picture shows a girl holding a picket sign with ‘save or earth’ written on it. The background of this picture is a forest with trees and plants. Did anyone tried to think why the background was a forest and not any other places? Could anyone imagine what this place will look like if deforestation happens at this place? If deforestation did happen in this place, this piece of forest will be gone. After what happens, all the animals living in this forest will lose their own habitat and their home will de gone. If the habitat of a certain species were changed for example North Pole, the polar bears will decrease in number or they have to leave their own habitat and look for another place that they could leave. If this really happens the animals depending on the polar bears may decrease in number and those animals that used to be their prey will increase in number and their food they depend on will decrease in number. If a specific animal decrease or increase in number, the whole eco system will be affected. If deforestation happens, there will be an increase in the amount of carbon dioxide and this will causes global warming to happen. The increase in global gases that were caused by vehicles or factories will also causes global warming. Global warming will causes the ice berg in the poles to melt and this will causes the increase in the sea level. The increase in sea level will causes flooding and low lying area to be flood by water. Although before the situation become very serious, we may think that it will not affect humans too much, the change of the eco system will eventually affect us and the impact on us will be very huge. Humans could not predict what will happen in the future but if deforestation, global warming and pollution continue to happen, what we can see and know is that one day our mother Earth will get destroyed by us. When human beings get injured, we could heal quickly but if the Earth gets injured, it could not heal easily, it could not heal after bandage. Now we are destroying and hurting the Earth, but what really happen in the future is we are also hurting our next few generation. They had to suffer from what we did now so I hope that we could save the Earth by lessening the harmful activities we do to our mother Earth. I hope that we could really save our mother by changing some of our daily activities like saving plastic bags and use the fan instead of the air conditioner.
