Write your own article about environmental problems in the place where you live. Environment is our home, that needs to be treat well or we risk loosing it. What do we mean when we talk about environment? First of all we pay attention to its problems. Main environmental problems are air pollution, global warming, energy crisis, deforestation, endangered species etc. Any of them concerns each of us because we live on the one planet. Air pollution is a problem of big cities. It causes by increasing number of cars and waste of industrial plants and factories. As result it turns into destroying ozone layer and global warming, having a bad effect on the climate of Earth. Another big environmental problem is growth of earth’s population. It causes energy crisis and lack of food and mineral recourses. In future the problem will grow worse if people do not find ways to use the alternative power like solar, for example, or learn how to stop Third World hunger. One more of the actual problems are deforestation and illegal hunting. Both mean to leave our planet without its main recourses – flora and fauna. These problems are global but we can help to save the planet taking care of our local environment.
