The environmental problem in the world cannot be solved by ordinary people because they can do little to change the situation. It is the responsibility of politicians. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

It is believed that only the State should be responsible to combat issues caused to the

environment

. In

this

essay,I will explain why I believe that the

environment

is a responsibility from everyone and

then

how individuals are able to help the system by giving some examples.

Firstly

, the main reason why individuals

also

could help the

environment

is due to household waste. It is known that more than half of the garbage produced around the world comes from families' houses.

Therefore

, it must be considered that if most families had treated their garbage by recycling it would have less littered streets in the world. To illustrate, some countries have proved that when the community is aware of the importance of recycling there is a considerable rising in quality of

water

and air which

also

pave the way for environmental improvement.

Secondly

, people are responsible for saving

water

. It is highly important to raise consciousness about how

water

is the most important source of life.

Thus

, people

also

can help the

environment

by using only a reasonable quantity of

water

which means that they should not waste it by washing cars, pavements and suchlike.

For example

, in the north pole, icebergs have been defrosting at an alarming rate in the

last

years due to global warming, that means that in the future society could face a shortage of

water

. In conclusion, environmental problems are considered as a responsibility from all human beings and not only governments'.

As a result

, each person could help the

environment

by taking single actions

such

as recycling or avoiding wasting

water

which would definitely help the

environment

for the

next

generations.
