HELP THE PLANET

 1  ________________

      There are over 7 billion people on planet Earth and this number is growing all the time. Air pollution is increasing, global temperatures are rising and rainforests are disappearing. It’s a big world with big problems, so what can we do to help? 

2 ________________

  There are a few simple steps that ordinary people can take to help the planet. Try saving water and electricity in the home, recycling paper and glass and changing your light bulbs to energy-saving ones.

  3  ________________

      In addition, buying food produced on farms close to your home helps the environment. It uses a lot of fuel to move food around by road, sea and air, so if you can cut down on the distance your food travels, you’ll reduce pollution. You’ll also be helping the economy in your area and you’ll have the added bonus of knowing exactly where your food came from.
