People generally know that the environment is important. However, most individuals still don't take responsibilities to protect the environment. Why is this? What should be done to encourage people to protect the environment? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own experience or knowledge.

Nowadays, the topic of environmental security is one of the crucial in the world. Unfortunately, it's more often that only developed countries provide the measures for the protection of our nature. I hope that every human will become eco-friendly in the near future. In

this

essay I'll provide the reasons why everybody should start thinking about the environment.

First

of all, we live in the century of a technological progress and it includes using of a lot of energy. In my opinion, we have to reconsider the ways of obtaining

this

power.

For example

, as the American astrophysics Neil DeGrasse Tyson said: "We must refuse to use of the engine of internal combustion in the

next

50 years.

Otherwise our

Otherwise, our

civilisation will be destroyed in the three centuries of even earlier.". There are a lot of alternatives to the petroleum,

such

as solar power, windmills and the mechanisms creating energy from the water waves. These inventions prevent from the massive pollutions that we have today.

Secondly

, our society should live with the motto "Reuse, reduce, recycle" and try to follow a zero-waste lifestyle. The most important in

this

motto is reducing. Of course,

firstly

the government should create the conditions for the recycling. Not only to settle the special bins for plastic, paper, metal, glass and bio-waste, but

also

educate people how to recycle correctly and

also

explain all the technological process from the bin to the new product.

For example

, when people see that all the solid waste is

then

put to the same track without any sorting, they think that they were cheated and stop to recycle.

However

, it's wrong because sorting happens directly on the plants. I adore the example of Sweden, where they recycle all the waste to produce energy and new products from it, it's the

first

country who even buy the "garbage" from other countries for its

further

recycling. In conclusion, I believe that to be a human means to have the responsibility for our planet. People have to change their direction from consumption and start to take care about our nature. We forgot about the essential things with

this

running to the high economic rates and our own satisfaction while it's not too late to become the responsible individuals.
