От! Але это не точно:
1. The word "environment" means what is around us. People who live in large industrial centers, cities and towns live in urban environments. For others, the environment is rural. Everyone who lives in
cities or small villages breathe air, drink water, use soil that needs to be clean. But are they really clean?
2. Water in oceans, seas and rivers is polluted in many places. If people drink this water, they may get sick or even die. People use the oceans and seas as large landfills and pour in them industrial and household waste. And so the fish becomes toxic. It’s very dangerous for people to eat such fish. Water birds leave places with toxic water. Many trees on the coast also die.
3. What we eat is not always healthy food, since fruits and vegetables can grow on contaminated soil and become dangerous. The meat that we get from sheep and cows can be bad for our health if these sheep and cows eat grass that grows on polluted lands.
4. People cut down trees, and many birds and animals cannot have houses in their usual places, and they begin to die. If the situation does not change, soon we will live in a completely different world - a world without a number of species that we know now.
5. At present, people feel that it is harder to breathe: in large cities, the air is very polluted. Most of the pollution comes from cars and buses. Old people and young children feel bad and are sick due to polluted air.
