The Earth faces many environmental problems. The first one is pollution. Factories and cars release poisonous chemicals into the air. These chemicals not only kill living creatures in the oceans, rivers and lakes but also mix with the water in the clouds. Then the polluted water falls and damages everything in the world. Food waste and too much packaging cause land pollution. What’s more, the hole in the ozone layer is getting bigger and bigger because of aerosols. The second problem is the extinction of some species. The main causes of extinction are overhunting, pollution and habitat loss. Many animals find it more difficult to survive in their nature. The last but not least is deforestation. We cause the loss of forests by cutting trees down. Erosion and fires also cause forests to disappear. To sum up, we can say that we live in a world which has serious problems.
