Now more and more people are focusing on the nature. It is no doubt that the nature is important to every human being. No nature, no life. Because of the supplies of the nature, we have lived happily for a long time. And we started to gain every thing available from the nature. And this lasted so long a time. Today, people have discovered that the nature around is getting worse and worse.
What is threatening the nature? Air and water pollution, overharvesting of plant and animal species, overpopulation and so on. Overpopulation is the biggest source of pollution. Let's take overpopulation as an example. What does overpopulation feel like? When we move slowly through the city in a tazi. When we enter a crowded slum district. When the temperature is high and when the air is thick with dust and smoke.
The streets are crowded with people. The streets seem alive with people. People eating. People washing. Improving Beijing's environment for the Olympics Ladies and gentlemen: Good morning! Today, the title of my speech is Improving Beijing's environment for the Olympics. Have you ever seen animals cry? Do you know what makes them cry? It's the polluted world, a dirty world, caused by our irresponsible behaviors, that makes those lovely animals cry. Many of us are smart enough to know how terrible it is to have a world without animals and plants. But some people still persist in making the same errors and harming the environment. What's worse is that people are eating wild animals. Those people don't know, and more importantly, they don't want to know. This kind of behavior has caused some specific problems.
For example, medical experts have suggested that eating wild animals helped spread the terrible disease SARS. Now, our world is no longer clean and beautiful. Why? Because air, water, and noise pollution has become more and more serious. Noise pollution makes us talk more loudly and become angry more easily. Water pollution makes our rivers and lakes very dirty. Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution. Both air pollution and water pollution are not only dangerous to our health, but also dangerous to animals and plants. We're destroying our only world. A large number of trees have been cut down, so a lot of lands have been turned into deserts. Pollution can be seen everywhere! Unquestionably it is essential that we clean up our environment. Sadly, we've not always appreciated the importance of protecting the environment.
On the streets, you can see cars producing smog. In the bathrooms, you can see students leaving the water tap on after using them. Not only the young people, but also the elderly ones throw things everywhere without thinking it's wrong, even in a beautiful park. these things are taking place every day, even in modern cities like Beijing. We can't do that any more. We must learn how to protect the environment. If everyone is aware of protecting it instead of destroying it, the world can become cleaner, more beautiful, and more peaceful. The theme of Beijing 20xx Olympic Games is "New Peking, New Olympic". It's the target owned by every Chinese. We should try our best to improve Beijing's environment for Olympics. , let's begin to act! First, start with the things around you. Don't throw rubbish onto the road. Don't talk loudly when you are outdoors. Turn off the water tap after using it. Go to school by bike or by bus instead of by private car.
Save your pocket money and contribute to environmental protection organizations. Take me as an example, I take action in order to make our only world full of happiness. I pick up rubbish and throw it into a trashcan. I collect waste paper or bottles for recycling. I plant more trees and flowers, and so on. If you do all these things just like me, it means you have done something useful to improve the environment. We're grateful, because the emblem of the Beijing 20xx Olympic Games is a precious treasure dedicated to the Olympic Movement by the people of China. Under the guidance of the Olympic spirit, let us do a better job in all fields of our preparation and venue construction work in an efficient way.
We will combine the Olympic Movement with the latest technology and advanced culture to make the Beijing Games the best Olympic Games ever! Welcome to Beijing! Thank you.

In all, we have only one earth, we should doour best to protect it, or we will regret.

Nowadays,most of us know that these threats exist and that humans havecaused them.Many of us are very worried about the future of our planet andunless we can find a way of solving the problems we have made then theenvironment will suffer even more.
It all sounds so depressing - but we certainly mustn't despair!Every one ofus,whatever age we are,can do something to help slow down and reverse some ofthe damage.We cannot leave the problem-solving entirely to the experts - we allhave a responsibility for our environment.We must learn to live in a sustainableway i.e.learn to use our natural resources which includeair,freshwater,forests,wildlife,farmland and seas without damaging them.Aspopulations expand and lifestyles change,we must keep the World in goodcondition so that future generations will have the same natural resources thatwe have.

some people may proudly say: we are the masters of nature. it is true thatthe idea of "man can conquer nature" has dominated people‘s mind for years, andit is true, man has kept acting like a master and doing whatever things he wantsfor thousands of years. however, as the consequence of this kind of "leadership", now the "master" seems to be confronted with problems that are far beyond hiscontrol. facts are really very ample. thegreen house effect leaves islands andcities along the coast, such as this oriental pearl-shanghai, in danger of thedisaster of being drowned; the holes of the ozone layer make the earth lesssuitable to live for some creatures including human beings; the phenomena of elnino and la nina leave the land with serious flood and drought, and thediseases, caused by pollution, are increasing at an incredible speed... seeingall these facts, can we still ignore the counterattack of nature? we are not themasters of nature. facing all the disasters made by ourselves, we, mankind as awhole should realize that we are just a normal member of the big family ofnature. any mistreatment towards nature will meet only with the revenge fromher.

The resources of the earth are limited. We should cherish and cherish theseresources. So we're going to do garbage sorting, and reuse the availableresources again.
At home, remind everybody garbage classification, water bottles, cans, suchas waste paper packed together to sell, resources recycling, and made money, thewaste batteries, cartridges, etc in the recycling bins. In school, you can reuseand reuse garbage, put in two different trash cans, one is recyclable and one isunrecyclable. Learn from your classmates and discuss ways to classify rubbish.In the suburbs, we will use two bags to classify garbage, pick up the garbagethat we see and classify it, so that it is the best young pioneers. This allowsyou to easily categorize.
Everyone is sorting garbage, and the earth is beautiful. We will see thethick wood, the clear water, the blue sky and the blue sea, everyone has a sweetsmile.
地球的资源是有限的，我们要好好地爱护和珍惜这些资源。所以我们要进行垃圾分类，再次利用这些可用的资源。
在家里，提醒大家进行垃圾分类，把矿泉水瓶，易拉罐，废纸等装在一起拿去卖，资源再利用了，又赚了钱，把废电池，墨盒等放到不可回收的垃圾桶里。在学校，就把可以再次利用和不能再次利用的垃圾，放在不同的两个垃圾桶，一个是可回收，一个是不可回收。
和同学学习，讨论垃圾分类的的方法。在郊外，我们要用两个袋子进行垃圾分类，把看到的垃圾捡起来，进行分类，这样才是优秀的少先队员。这样就可以轻轻松松的进行分类了。
人人都进行垃圾分类，地球就变得美丽了。我们就会看到茂密的树林，清澈见底的湖水，蔚蓝的天空和蓝蓝的大海，人人都露出甜甜的笑脸。

人与环境是和谐相处的，我们生存在地球上，人是自然之子，而不能仅把人看作自然的征服者，大家都知道，人类只有一个地球，地球上的山山水水、动物。植物是人类的细胞，如果我们把它损坏了，破坏了大自然的组织，等于消灭人类。因此，环境要与社会公德联系起来，与实践行为作为人格教育的一项重要内容来抓。每个人都要履行保护环境的责任和义务。
Harmony with the environment is that we live in on Earth, who is a naturalson, and not only to natural persons as the conqueror, as we all know, there isonly one earth and the mountains on Earth, the animals. Plant human cells, if itdamaged, destroyed nature organizations, to the eradication of mankind.Therefore, the environment must be linked with social ethics, charactereducation and practice acts as an important element of it. Everyone must fulfilits responsibilities and obligations to protect the environment.

Hello:
everyone!Now I want to talk about a beatiful world!
When I was young,I always dreamed that I lived in a beautiful country. There were many flowers and trees around our city.We counld hear the birds singing and see the children dancing. The streets were clear and the the air was very fresh! How nice it was!But that only was a dream of mine!How I wish that it would be come true! So I think we should do something to protect our environment. Everyone should make a contribution to protect the environment.
Taking care of our environment is very important.Wherever you live,you can do something around your neighbourhood.
Have you ever thrown any litter onto the ground?Have you ever drawn pictures on public walls?Have you ever spat in a public place?Have you ever cut down trees?If your answers are "No",it means that you have already helped protect our environment.
It is our duty to keep our envionment clean and tidy. You might ask yourself,"Have I ever picked up some rubbish and thrown it into a dustbin?Have I ever collected waste paper or bottles for recycling?Have I ever planted any trees or flowers in or near my neighbourhood?"If your answers are"Yes",it means that you have already done something useful to improve the environment.
Now I want to say :Let's do our best to make our world more beautiful!

Throughout history man has changed his physical environment in order toimprove his way of life. With the tools of technology he has altered manyphysical features of the earth. He has transformed woodlands and prairies intofarms and made lakes and reserviors out of rivers for irrigation purposes orhydroelectric power. Man has also modified the face of the earth by drainingmarshes and cutting through mountains to build roads and railways.
However, man's changes to the physical environment have not always hadbeneficial results. Today, pollution of the air and water is an increasingdanger to the health of the planet. Each day thousands of tons of gases come outof the exhausts of motor vehicles. Smoke from factories pollutes the air ofindustrialized areas and the surrounding areas of the countryside. The pollutionof water is equally harmful. The whole ecological balance of the sea is beingchanged and industrial wastes have already made many rivers lifeless.
Now environmental protection is more pressing than ever before. As we know,massive destruction of environment has brought about negative effects and evenposes a great threat to man's existence. Indifference to these problems willmean committing suicide. Therefore, effective measures should be taken and lawspassed to conserve environment. Otherwise,man is certain to suffer from theserious consequences caused by this lack of care for his livingsurroundings.

My name is Angel; I am from class 1, grade 5. Today I’m going to talk about low carbon lifestyle. What is low carbon life?
Low carbon life is to reduce carbon in the air. We know that when we burn something to make electricity, we make the air dirty and increase the carbon dioxide; when we drive cars, the carbon dioxide is also increased.
Because of the high-consumption and high-pollution economy, the population increases quickly and the global climate changes repeatedly. The resources that people rely on to survive become less and less. Those are having a bad effect on our health, making us unhealthy. Therefore, low carbon life is important to us.
As a student, we should develop good habits in our daily lives. We can select products with longer shift life when we shop. This can reduce waste and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Paper cups are made from cutting forests. We should try not to use them, or select the smaller ones when we do because trees can absorb carbon dioxide and reduce greenhouse gas. We should use efficient light bulbs and the lights should be turned off when not needed.We should not waste food, so that the machines do not need to produce more. In this way, energy and electricity can be saved.
In the future, we will study harder to find new and better ways to have a low carbon lifestyle, so everybody will live a wonderful low carbon life.
Thank you everybody!

Although the world develops much faster and better, the resources on theearth get fewer and fewer. In order to protect them,something must be done.
尽管世界发展得更快，更好，地球上的资源越来越少。为了保护它们，必须做些什么。
Save water. Water is the source of life. No water, no life. So it's veryimportant for us to do so.Not only should we protect drinking water and stoppolluting it, but also make full use of it.
节约用水。水是生命之源。没有水，就没有生命。所以，我们这样做是非常重要的。我们不仅要保护饮用水和停止污染，而且充分利用它。
Save electricity. It is crucial. We can't imagine what the life will belike without it. Everyone should do his best to save electricity. Don't forgetto turn off lights or other electric machines when we finish working.
节约用电。这是至关重要的。我们无法想象的生活就会像没有它。每个人都应该尽自己的最大努力节约用电。不要忘记关灯或其他当我们完成工作的电机。
Save forests. They are useful .Please stop cutting them down and userecycled paper instead. Make our world a green one to live in.
拯救森林。他们是有用的。请停止切割下来，用再生纸代替。使我们的世界成为一个绿色的生活。
Recycle useful rubbish. Plenty of rubbish can be recycled like cans,paper,bottles, and so on. We can save resources in this way.
回收有用的垃圾。大量的垃圾可以回收罐一样，纸，瓶，等。我们以这种方式可以节省资源。

Nature--Overpopulation
What is nature? It's everything that exists in the world independently of people, such as pants and animals, earth and rocks, and the weather.
Now more and more people are focusing on the nature. It is no doubt that the nature is important to every human being. No nature, no life. Because of the supplies of the nature, we have lived happily for a long time. And we started to gain every thing available from the nature. And this lasted so long a time. Today, people have discovered that the nature around is getting worse and worse.
What is threatening the nature? Air and water pollution, overharvesting of plant and animal species, overpopulation and so on. Overpopulation is the biggest source of pollution. Let's take overpopulation as an example.
What does overpopulation feel like? When we move slowly through the city in a tazi. When we enter a crowded slum district. When the temperature is high and when the air is thick with dust and smoke. The streets are crowded with people. The streets seem alive with people. People eating. People washing. People talking. People sleeping. People visiting each other, arguing and screaming. People relieving themselves. People pushing their hands through the taxi windows, begging. People leading animals. People, people, people, people. As we drive slowly through the crowd, sounding the taxi's horn, the dust, heat, noise and cooking fires made it like a scene from hell! I admit, frightening.
To the nature, overpopulation is a big problem. More people, more pollution. And the big population is threatening the nature every second.
The rapid rise in world population is not creating problems only for the developing countries. The whole world faces the problem that raw materials are being used up at an increasing rate and food production can not keep up with the population increase. People in rich countries make the heaviest demands on the world's resources, its food, fuel and land, and cause the most pollution. A baby born in the United States will use in his lifetime 30 times more of the world's resources than a baby born in India. Unless all the countries of the world take united action to deal with the population explosion there will be more and more people fighting for a share of less and less land, food and fuel, and the future will bring poverty, misery and war to us all.
For most of the developing countries, it is a good idea to control the population growth. For example, China has carried out birth control for years. And this plan has a great effect on the world population.
If the population continues to increase, if the air and water continue to be polluted, if we don't do something to protect wild-plant and wildlife species will be declining. Species and biological communities have difficulty adapting to change. Economic opportunities and the quality of life of future generations are also put at risk. By protecting nature, we protect ourselves.
Let's unite together, hand in hand we stand all across the land.
We can make this world in which to live. Hand in hand. Control the population growth. Take good care of our nature.

Each and every one of us is responsible for the greenhouse gases we emit in our daily actions and choices. Therefore, combating climate change is going to take the combined efforts of everyone on the planet.
The average household carbon footprint in China is 2.41 tons of carbon dioxide annually. That's enough to fill half an Olympic swimming pool.
Surprised? Well, here's how you can work to reduce it:
1.Get started by calculating your own carbon footprint. This will give you a starting point from which to begin monitoring your progress. You enter details such as what sort of apartment you live in, your personal energy use and travel habits.
2. Each week, choose one day when you don't eat meat. Meat uses up lots of energy because it takes a long time to produce. Animals produce methane, which is another dangerous greenhouse gas, when they burp and fart.
3. Only buy the amount of food you need and if there are leftovers, get creative. For instance, make them into a soup. Ask to take food home from restaurants if there's some left, but remember to take your own container to avoid using a disposable carton.

in modern society, we tend to become more and more aware of our livingenvironment or physical environment, because we are not clean as before. So manypeople now choose their house as to its environment but not its location andexpenses to afford it. As we all know, the environment pollution is more andmore serious during these years, what we could do is to make great efforts inprotecting environment gradually. As to government pollution, as to commonpeople. We also try to protect it and make it remain clean. Although we havemanaged to protect the environment to a certain extent. It is still a very longway to go.

DEMAND for graduates in the UK with skills related to sustainability is booming. Academia is waking up to the need to train specialists in green architecture, chemistry and engineering.
Dean Millar founded the world’s first ever BSc course in Renewable Energy at Exeter University after working as an industry consultant.
He said: “A lot of companies were complaining that there was a lack of bright young people suitably trained to work in the renewables business.”
Now his course has around 90 students learning the ins and outs of biomass, tidal, solar and offshore wind power.
Their career prospects are incredibly bright. Employment opportunities are not just limited to the energy sector, but segue into the regulatory and, increasingly, investment sectors as well.
“The big boys are moving in. The returns to be had are significant, especially in terms of wind development,” said Millar. “Financial firms need expertise across the board so they can make sensible investment decisions.”
Students on York University’s Master’s course in Green Chemistry are ideally placed to take advantage of the growing demand in industry for graduates with waste minimization skills.
Professor James Clark is founder of York’s Green Chemistry Centre for Excellence and the world’s leading green chemistry journal, Green Chemistry. He said: “We are now talking to producers of automobiles, electronics, furniture and pharmaceuticals, people who need to use chemistry but don’t think of themselves as chemists.”
As waste production legislation becomes increasingly strict, the traditional emphasis on making as much of a chemical as possible is shifting towards minimizing the waste that process creates. “A lot of chemicals are made from petroleum, but we are developing sustainable ways to make carbon, typically from biomass such as dead plants and trees,” said professor Clark.
All of last year’s graduates quickly found employment, some receiving multiple job offers in a variety of different fields.
Li Li, a 26-year-old Chinese postgraduate student, graduated from York in 20xx. She said:
“I hadn’t heard about green chemistry in China. It was a new area and I was curious. Now the government back home needs people who know about these principles.”
Deep in the heart of Wales, 400 students at the Centre for Alternative Technology’s (CAT) Graduate School of the Environment are busy designing and building everything from high insulation wood housing to wind power turbines. With energy costs rising, building firms are increasingly looking to minimize the energy wasted heating and lighting homes, a service CAT students are well-equipped to provide.
A new institute is being built to meet the burgeoning demand for places and a distance learning facility will be launched next September so foreign students can complete CAT courses from home.
The expertise being taught on these courses is essential to a continually expanding range of companies and government authorities. Yet there is a larger goal at stake; the students are at the forefront of the battle against climate change. In the words of Dean Millar, “If we’re going to save the planet, we need to start turning these people out in big numbers.”

The world we live in is becoming more and more intolerable because ofenvironmental destruction. Bird flu and Sars are two typical examples thatenvironmental destruction may threaten our life. Besides， forest destruction ，water and air pollution result in decrease of planting land and unpleasantweather.
Serious as the problem seems， we can come up with some measures to dealwith it. First of all， the authorities should adopt the policy of "sustainabledevelopment"， and laws concerning environmental protection should be put intoeffect and enforced strictly just as our government has been doing.
What' s more， every citizen should realize the seriousness of the problemand make concerted efforts to protect our environment. In addition， plantingtrees helps improve and beautify the environment.
Harmony with the environment is that we live in on Earth, who is a naturalson, and not only to natural persons as the conqueror, as we all know, there isonly one earth and the mountains on Earth, the animals. Plant human cells, if itdamaged, destroyed nature organizations, to the eradication of mankind.Therefore, the environment must be linked with social ethics, charactereducation and practice acts as an important element of it.
