The twentieth century has become a century of scientific and technological progress, the XXI century continues to develop more and more technical means. Of course, such a rapid development of technology cannot but rejoice. But there is also a downside to the coin. Many of these inventions pollute the environment. Rockets make holes in the ozone layer, factories emit toxic substances, cars poison the air with exhaust gases ...
At some point, it became clear to humanity that this could not continue. The science of ecology has appeared, which develops ways to preserve our biosphere. But I believe that the laws of ecology will work only when we realize that the globe does not belong to us, but we belong to it. Each person should be personally responsible for the cleanliness of our planet. First of all, you need to start with yourself and thus set an example for others. Throwing garbage in a trash can, cleaning up after a picnic, participating in a clean-up - everyone can do such things. And if each person begins to follow these simple rules, then the planet will feel better.
Nowadays, many conferences, festivals are being held, various funds are being created to preserve the environment. I hope that in the near future the ecological situation will change, otherwise the irreparable may happen. We need to pass on to our descendants a clean and beautiful Earth, because we have only one. If you take care of nature, then she will definitely take care of her children. Therefore, we must remember that we are responsible for our planet!
