IV. Reading

Environmental issues are becoming a major concern around the world. Pollution, deforestation, and climate change

are harmful to nature and human health. Factories and cars release toxic gases, which cause air pollution. This leads

to serious health problems and damages the environment.

Another major issue is deforestation. Many trees are cut down for wood and farmland, which destroys animal habitats.

Without enough trees, the air becomes more polluted because trees help absorb carbon dioxide. Protecting forests is

essential for environmental conservation.

Water pollution is also a serious problem. Factories and farms release chemicals into rivers and lakes, making the

water unsafe to drink. To conserve clean water, people should avoid wasting it. Simple actions, like turning off taps

and fixing leaks, can make a big difference.

To reduce environmental damage, people should recycle, use less plastic, and save energy. Governments should create

laws to protect nature and encourage conservation. Using renewable energy, such as solar and wind power, can

replace harmful fossil fuels.

Everyone has a responsibility to protect the planet. If people work together, they can reduce pollution and conserve

natural resources. A clean and healthy environment benefits all living things.
