Enviromental Problem

There are plenty of environmental health issues that affect our nation today. Possibly one the most urgent ones is the way we mistreat our planet. Pollution is an environmental concern that I think needs immediate attention. It is our job and responsibility to keep our earth clean and not destroy it with toxins that we create and waste that we let pile up. We our destroying ourselves when we turn our back on our environment and choose not take care of it by chocking it with chemicals like airplane fuel burning away our ozone layer , or allowing hundreds of gallons of oils to spill into our oceans. These among other things like not recycling or big trash refineries form a cycle and create bigger problems for us as humans. People have publicly expressed their concern on the issue but still it has received too little notice and recognition of the seriousness of the matter. If we continue to pollute our earth, we will put our health and safety at danger. By not taking immediate action we allow the problem to persist and create bigger issues. Our nation already suffers with war and economy issues at large, pollution not something added that we need to our plate. Pollution does not have to get bad if we take an early action plan, rather than sitting around continuing life as we know it, until it is too late to fix a problem that could have been solved years earlier. We as a nation can stop pollution if we work together, and reach out publicly to make sure we don’t allow it to destroy us.
