Pollution is also caused by individuals. For example, automobiles release
chemicals into the air that make it difficult for humans, animals, and plants to
breathe.

world is probably one of the most important things we can do to maintain life
on Earth.
We lose resources when we use them carelessly. We need to reduce the amount
of things we use and the amount of things we throw away. We need to fix
things and reuse them, rather than throwing them out. We need to recycle
materials that are recyclable, by separating out plastic, bottles, and recyclable
paper from other garbage. These are things that everyone can do.

steps to prevent those problems is even more important. As individuals, we can
follow the rules of 3 Rs. They are reduce, reuse and recycle. As families, we can
try to use materials that are environmentally friendly and to limit our
dependence on materials that cause pollution and resource loss. As students, we
can work in teams to reduce ourselves and others. As citizens, we can write to
government representatives to let them know our priorities.
