THINK OF THE FUTURE!

The population of the world is growing very fast. In the last 40 years it has doubled. By the year 2200 it will be about 10,000 million. Our cities will be much bigger. There will be more factories and more roads. We will need more water and more natural resources. Experts say that we must change the way we use energy and natural resources now.

Every day we throw away millions of tones of rubbish. Half of this is paper that we can use again. A typical family in Europe or America throws away more than I tone

of rubbish each year but we can recycle most of this. If we recycle things, we can save money, energy and natural resources. Recycling the New York Times newspaper, for example, will save 75,000trees every week.

A lot of the rubbish that we throw away is biodegradable. Plastic, metals and chemicals will not disappear for hundreds of years. We also produce a lot of unnecessary things such as packaging. All of this pollutes the air, the land and the water. Pollution will be a very big problem in the future. We must avoid using no biodegradable materials. We must also reduce the amount of unnecessary things that we produce and use. In shops, for, example we can say “No, thanks” to the packaging that comes with the things we buy. Many natural resources are not renewable. Coal, gas, oil, metal and mineral will finish one day. Other resources take a long time to grow, such as trees or they are not always available, such as water. We have to reduce the amount of resources and energy we use. We also have to find alternative ways to make energy. We can use the sun, the wind, the sea and the heat of the Earth.
