The rate at which the Earth is being harmed by human activities is concerning. As
people
 become more aware of the troubling situation, more steps are being taken to address it.
Although
 international governments play an important role in environmental health, it is widely accepted that their efforts do not nullify those of
people
. To demonstrate
this
 point, I will draw on personal experience
as well as
 non-governmental activities performed in my nation. On the one hand, several non-governmental organizations have been making headway in the fight for a cleaner world. Many Canadian institutions,
for example
, have student organizations that strive to promote awareness of the lifestyle changes that
people
 can make to protect the environment. These autonomous organizations assist in putting a face to a message and actually urge individuals to change for the sake of the natural environment. As
this
 demonstrates, environmental programs do not have to be administered by the government to be effective. Citizens' contributions to global cleanup efforts should not be overlooked. Every person may assist in delaying and stopping the damage by reducing energy
use
 and fossil fuel
use
.
People
 should switch to energy-efficient lighting; improve the efficiency of home appliances; bring their own shopping bags
instead
 of using plastic, and
use
 recycled or recyclable products to reduce waste, which can contaminate water resources. They should
also
use
 public transportation
instead
 of their private vehicles to reduce greenhouse gas emissions or fossil fuel consumption. These small actions assist the environment. To summarize, governments should undertake worldwide environmental preservation, but
this
 issue cannot be effectively handled without the efforts of citizens, who play a vital role in minimizing environmental pollution.
