environmental pollution is a serious social problem. it poses a terrible threat to men’s health.
the atmosphere is filthy. the air is thick with dust and burnt oil. dark smokes are being emitted from chimneys, and choking fumes are being released from numerous vehicles. stay a little while in a big city, then wipe your forehead with your handkerchief, it is black. hang out your washing on the line to dry, you will have to wash again. garbage is left to accumulate in unsanitary heaps that attract flies and give off bad smell. nor is the pollution confined to air and land. large quantity of sewage and chemical waste are dumped daily into rivers, lakes and the sea, which kills millions of fish. noises coming from honking cars, rumbling machines and broadcasting loudspeakers may make a person nervous and irritable, even drive him crazy.
environmental pollution is responsible for many diseases that are disabling, or bringing death to human beings.
in short, let’s take good care of our mother globe, not only for the well-being of ourselves, but also for that of our future generations.
