pollution

It's a wonderful world we live in. For thousands of years the Earth has given support to all forms of life - human beings, animals, birds, fishes, insects and plants. But now human beings are killing our planet. All over the world the forests are disappearing.

Many contries bury and forget about millions of tons of rubbish every year.These days, people usually do shopping in supermarkets Nearly 'everything is packed in paper or plastic containers Some of this "packaging" is necessary. It keeps food clean and fresh. But some packaging is not necessary. Its just to make the food look better.

Because if you try to live in a way that will save the world rather than destroy it, you won't be alone.
