Some people say that we should invest money in ecology projects, while others believe that nature is doing well by itself.
The earth is the only planet that people can live on, but nowadays they seem to be doing everything to make their home unfit for living. Industrialization has brought us into conflict with the natural environment. Our planet is in danger; air, water and land pollution have disastrous consequences which threaten human life on Earth.
I strongly feel that the more money is invested in ecology projects, the better our lives are going to be. People have technologies to make our planet cleaner: we can control pollution, recycle waste materials, protect rare animals and plants and install antipollution equipment. We need more disaster-prevention programs in order to control environmental pollution, fight the destruction of wildlife and preserve woodlands. There should be more newspaper articles, TV-programs and science-popular films about ecological problems. They help people become environment-educated.
However, many people still believe that nature is doing well by itself.
To conclude, ecological problems concern everybody and there are ways to solve them. People must always remember that the earth is our home and it depends on us what it will be like.

 Many people think that they can’t solve the world’s environmental problems on their own and that the government and big companies must care about these problems. However, others say that individuals can do much to help the environment.

Our planet is in danger: air, water and land pollution have disastrous consequences which threaten human life on Earth. Most people are convinced that something must be done to stop pollution, but they don’t know if they can help.
In my opinion, much can be done by an average citizen. People have to be smart about such things as driving a car or using electricity. Whenever we drive a car, we are adding greenhouse gases to the atmosphere. To make our planet cleaner and to use less energy we can try carpooling. That is when three people ride together in one car instead of driving three cars to work. We can also use public transport, ride a bike, or walk. People can save electricity by turning off lights, our TV-set and computer. We can use less washing up liquids to keep the water clean. We can also plant trees, collect litter and recycle cans, bottles, plastic bags and newspapers. Besides, we can buy products that don’t use much energy.

 There is a lot of discussion about the destruction of rain forests. Some people don’t care about this problem, while others feel that the rain forest must be preserved.

Nowadays rainforests occupy a relatively small area. One can find them in South America and Indonesia, in Thailand and Sri Lanka. Worryingly, rainforests are disappearing at an alarming rate owing to deforestation, river pollution and soil erosion. Quite a lot of people still don’t know what effect the destruction of the rainforest may have on the world climate.
 Tropical rainforests are called the "world’s largest pharmacy" because a lot of natural medicines have been discovered there. More than half of the world’s species of plants and animals are found in rainforests. They also offer a way of life to many people living in and around the forest. What is more, rainforests are the lungs of our planet because they produce a significant amount of the world’s oxygen.
To conclude, if people want to be healthy and to live happily on Earth, they must preserve rainforests. I think that governments must work together with environmentalists to fight deforestation and to prevent the disappearance of "the lungs of our planet".

 Everybody understands that we should recycle our waste. However, most people continue disposing of it in the usual way.

Recycling is an important issue nowadays. Unfortunately, people have always polluted their surroundings. The development of big industrial cities has led to the concentration of huge amounts of waste into small areas. So the obvious solution of this problem is recycling.

I strongly feel that everybody can help recycle waste by collecting litter and by sorting rubbish into different categories. Paper, glass and plastic can be sold to recycling companies. Recycled waste can be made into new products and it can help save natural resources.  
But in spite of all the advantages of recycling, there is still a lot of waste everywhere. Many people don’t want to sort their rubbish. Some areas still have plenty of landfill space and no recycling centres. They find it rather expensive to transport materials for recycling to big cities. To my mind, there must be more recycling centres not only in big cities, but in small towns as well. 
In general, recycling is good for the environment. What is more, it is an interesting and profitable business.

There are many problems in our world, different countries and organizations. But there is a problem that’s disturbing all the world. Our planet is full of industrial factories and plants. Millions of cars are emitting some harmful substances into the air. Such substances make people and animal suffer from polluted air. Our industry is a cause of global warming and we can’t stop it right now due to lack of technology development.
However, all is not so bad. We have thousands of organizations and even corporations that are trying to popularize alternative energy sources. And their work is noticeable. Electric automobiles are becoming more and more popular. Plants and factories are using modern technologies to reduce emissions. Somebody could say "Hey, you’re too optimistic and we all are going to the abyss." But I’m not an optimist, I just see all the improvements last years that are believed to change the situation all over the world.
You and I have only to help in this by promoting new harmless technologies. Maybe they aren’t too profitable right now, but someday they will replace old and harmful one.
I believe that our future world will not be a big trash. It will be a pretty place with beautiful nature and complementary synthesis of nature and technology.

НЕБОЛЬШОЕ СОЧИНЕНИЕ ПО АНГЛИЙСКОМУ ЯЗЫКУ, 8 КЛАСС "ПРОБЛЕМЫ ОКРУЖАЮЩЕЙ СРЕДЫ РОССИИ"

Nowadays there is a growing contradiction between the limited resources of a nature and demands of the modern world treated with the growth of production.

Environmental situation in Russia is quite unfavorable, only solid waste is more than 100 billion tons, which is extremely dangerous for human life. This is not a disaster, but we can say that we have faced with a certain crisis. The following cities are included in the rating of the most dangerous ecological cities of Russia: Moscow, St. Petersburg, Magnitogorsk, Lipetsk, Cherepovets, etc. It is believed, that the most polluted city here is Dzerzhinsk, where harmful toxic industrial waste is contaminated not only the air, soil, but water too. At the same time, Norilsk covers approximately 2% of emissions around the world.

There are certain environmental problems of the Russian Federation: harmful emissions and wastewater industry, contamination with radioactive waste, landfill, waste and wild tourism, uncontrolled deforestation, poaching, psychotropic substances etc. There is a systemic impact on the biosphere, and as a result, our nature suffers, and it concerns the humanity as a whole. Pollution is increasingly global in nature.

There is also a new development strategy in dealing with Russian environmental problems, and 2017 has been declared as the Year of Ecology.

ПЕРЕВОД НА РУССКИЙ ЯЗЫК:

С ростом производства растет противоречие между ограниченными ресурсами природы и запросами современного мира.

Экологическая ситуация России довольно неблагоприятная, только твердых отходов более 100 млрд тонн, что чрезвычайно опасно для жизни человека. Это еще не катастрофа, но можно сказать, что кризис налицо. В рейтинг наиболее опасных экологических городов входят такие, как: Москва, Санкт-Петербург, Магнитогорск, Липецк, Череповец и др. Считается, что наиболее загрязнённый город России – Дзержинск, где вредными токсическими отходами производства загрязнен не только воздух, почва, но и вода, а город Норильск охватывает 2% вредных выбросов всего мира.

Настоящие экологические проблемы Российской Федерации: вредные выбросы и стоки промышленных предприятий, загрязнение радиоактивными отходами, свалки, бытовые отходы и дикий туризм, бесконтрольная вырубка лесов, браконьерство, психотропные вещества и т. Д. Происходит системное воздействие на биосферу, а в результате страдает не только природа, но и человечество в целом. Проблемы загрязнения окружающей среды все больше приобретают глобальный характер.

Сейчас заложена новая стратегия развития в решении экологических проблем России, а 2017 год объявили годом экологии.

Только недавно планета была большим миром, в котором человеческая деятельность и природное состояние были в балансе. Люди жили в гармонии с природой и не загрязняли ее.
Но в наше время, экологические проблемы стали наиболее острыми для современного общества. Воздух, которым мы дышим, воду, которую мы пьем, земля, где мы выращиваем нашу пищу, и даже возрастающий шум, который мы слышем каждый день, все это способствует проблемам со здоровьем и снижению качества жизни. Люди вырубают деревья, разрушают места обитания тысяч животных и загрязняют воду в реках и морях. Возрастающее количество автомобилей в городах способствует увеличения уровня углекислого газа в атмосфере. Также, вы знаете, что много редких животных и растений исчезло, поэтому я думаю, что это наша обязанность заботиться и беречь животных. Проблемы так серьезны в наши дни, что они должны быть решены безотлагательно.
Я думаю, что я большой фанат природы и большой любитель быть на открытом воздухе. И я вступила в нашу городскую группу окружающей среды, которая помогает быть нашему городу больше чище и красивее. Мы должны заботиться о месте, где мы живем, потому что мы можем изменить мир и сделать его лучше! Если Земля-зеленая, то это - здоровая планета, и я хочу сделать ее зеленой. Что касается меня, зеленая Земля означает, что вода, воздух и земля - чистые. Люди дышат свежим воздухом, и я надеюсь наши будущее поколения будут делать это тоже.
Итак, давайте жить в мире с нашей окружающей средой!

Many scientists, politicians, etc. are concerned about people’s health. It is undoubtedly true that, nowadays people have unhealthy way of life, which can lead to serious diseases.
First of all, many people have a sedentary jobs, which can results badly on their health. To reduse the negative effect, people can do exercises or other phisical activity.
Secondly, there are so many junk food in our life, it is really difficult to find something without GMO.
Last, but not the least, people, who live in polluted areas, usually have worse health level. Factories now pollute everything they can: air, water etc.
To sum up, i can say that to be or not to be healthy depends on ourselves, only we can make our life happier and longer.

Ну могу помочь но он не большой
Environmental Protection
Some hundreds of years ago people lived in harmony with nature, because industry was not much developed. Today, however, the contradictions between man and nature are dramatic.
The twenty first century is a century of the scientific and technological progress. The achievements of the mankind in mechanization and automation of industrial processes, in chemical industry and conquering outer space, in the creation of atomic power stations and ships are amazing. But at the same time, this progress gave birth to a very serious problem – the problem of environment.
Ecology and the contamination of environment, is concerned with climate, over-population in certain areas, deaths of plant and animals, chemical contamination of seas, lakes and rivers as well as atomic experiments and dumping of atomic waste from power stations. Floods, unexpected draughts, and the greenhouse effect are the next reasons.
There are many consequences of damaging the environment. One of them is acid rain. Another one is water shortage resulting from abuse of arable lands in agriculture. The third one is destroying the ozone layer of the Earth through pollution from factories and plants. The fourth problem is damage o water and soils.
The fifth one is damage to wildlife: numerous species of animals and plants can disappear. At last, the most serious danger arising from damaging the environment is the result of the abovementioned consequences. This is the danger for the life and health of the man.
The protection of natural resources and wildlife is becoming a political programme in every country. Numerous anti-pollution acts passed in different countries led to considerable improvements in environment. In many countries purifying systems for treatment of industrial waters have been installed, measures have been taken to protect rivers and seas from oil waters.
But the environmental problems have grown beyond the concern of a single country. Their solution requires the co-operation of all nations. If we are unable to learn to use the environment carefully and protect it from damage caused by man’s activities, very soon we’ll have no world to live in.
Environmental protection is a practice of protecting the environment, on individual, organizational or governmental level, for the benefit of the natural environment and (or) humans. Due to the pressures of population and our technology the biophysical environment is being degraded, sometimes permanently.
This has been recognized and governments began placing restraints on activities that caused environmental degradation. Since the 1960s activism by the environmental movement has created awareness of the various environmental issues. There is not a full agreement on the extent of the environmental impact of human activity and protection measures are occasionally criticized.
Academic institutions now offer courses such as environmental studies, environmental management and environmental engineering that study the history and methods of environmental protection. Protection of the environment is needed from various human activities. Waste, pollution, loss of biodiversity, and the introduction of invasive species are some of the issues relating to environmental protection.

All of us know about problems with our nature.
A lot of our modern technologies made our world very dirty and ugly. I want to tell you about it.
So, all people now want to do everything faster and to do it well. That’s why people made different technologies. They didn’t know what a big problem it can do. Different cars plants and factories make our planet ugly.
I think it is not very good, because it help only people
I don’t know why we do this
For example I like to help nature, as greenpeace, a one little person can help nature.
Now I know that we can do it, that we can protect the world, to make it beautiful. And since this time I wil say all of you -Protect our planet-

Our planet is a tiny part of a great unknown universe and, perhaps, it is the only place for human beingsto live. It goes without saying that we should take care of it and protect it. The Earth is sure to be in danger now. There are a lot of ecological problems such as different kinds ofpollution (air, water and soil), global warming, overpopulation and some others. It is said that every 10 minutes on our planet some animal or plant dies out. It may look as a terrible threat and who is to blame for it? The answer is simple as ABC. People living on the planet pay little attention to the way they treat their home. The forests are cut down or burnt. The trees disappearing, the quantity of oxygen is being reduced. Moreover the quality of air is becoming worse. It is caused by numerous chemical emissions. Industrial and nuclear waste is the other reason for the Earth pollution. Big cities produce tons of harmful substancesand it seems to have disastrous consequences for the planet. Our rivers and lakes are poisoned withpesticides and fertilizers used by farmers. So to say, we have a great number of problems to solve as quickly as possible. It may seem surprising but we have enough time, money and even working methods to succeed inenvironmental rescue. People should pay much attention to litter recycling, using energy-saving technologies and other things to improve the environment. It is not so difficult to plant a tree or to put thegarbage into the bin. So, everything is in our hands. Let’s make our planet cleaner and safer, and our issue will thank us.

WordSection1 {page: WordSection1;} -> The environment is getting more and more polluted nowadays, it is not a secret to anyone. Countries all over the world pay much attention to this problem and solve it. And England is not an exception. Citizens of this country and the government itself are very aware of the necessity in protecting the environment. They try to do a lot to make the outside world better. For example, the British petrol stations sell unleaded petrol, which contains less dangerous elements for the air, and it is controlled officially. Also thousands of buildings and conservation areas are protected by government. It helps to prevent them from destruction, vandalism, cutting the woods down and extinction of species. Famous national parks, that cover a huge part of Great Britain’s territory, are saved from real estate development, and it improves the condition of air. What is more, in Great Britain there are the River purification authorities that control water pollution and their duty is to solve the problems concerning water. But not only organizations do this work, ordinary people take care a lot in their everyday life as well. For instance, they use water and electricity very economically not to save money only, but to spare the natural resources. Also in Europe and in England in particular cars with electric motors are popular. It does not spoil the air purity, but, unfortunately, such cars are not so widely produced. We are responsible for our planet, and we should follow the example of Great Britain in the question of saving the environment.

How to help
When you’re using electricity think about where it comes from and how you can use less to take the strain off of the environment - here are some simple ways to make a big difference: On or Off?  Leaving televisions, stereos and computers on standby with the little red light showing still uses up electricity, even though they might look like they’re turned off.  To stop this you can turn them off at the wall. Simple! Lights out!  Turning lights off when you’re not in the room (make sure no-one else is too!) can save a lot of energy. Putting the kettle on  Britons drink an amazing 60.2 billion cups of tea a day according to The Tea Council.  That’s a lot of tea, and a lot of electricity too!  That’s why it’s important to only boil as much water as you need in your kettle.  It’s best to boil enough water for one cup, not three or five - plus you won’t have to wait as long, which is a bonus! Brrrr  The fridge is an important part of the kitchen, it keeps food fresh, cool and healthy!  But it takes a lot of energy to keep cool, so help it by not leaving the fridge door open or putting hot things inside. Shopping  Many products are now helping you to reduce your energy use and your parents’ energy bills!  Check new products for their efficiency grade and rating and keep an eye out for the Energy Efficiency Recommended logo. Harness the sun’s energy - An increasing number of people are fitting solar panels to their houses.  Photovoltaic (PV) solar panels create electricity from sunlight, which can then be used to power their homes.  Solar heating panels make hot water, reducing the need for electricity or gas to heat water or run the central heating system.
