Environmental Problems

Hello everyone!

Welcome to my blog entry about environmental problems. Today I am going to tell you something about an interesting public survey and about my own habits and recommendations how to protect the environment.

Last week I was listening to a poll from teens and it talks about the environment, global warming and nature.

I thought you might be interested because this problems concern all of us. I am going to give you some information about now.

Three out of four people stated, that global warming is somewhat serious to them. What surprised me most was the fact that almost half people think that it is extremely or very serious.

To the question, what the best reason to preserve nature is, answered almost 60% for its own sake. More than every fourth said to preserve the benefits people can get from.

The interviewers asked those questioned teens how they feel when they are outdoors. Seven out of ten people of the interview mentioned peaceful and free. Approximately two third said that they feel calm and happy. More than half people said that they feel alive and curious.

Of course, I involve myself to have a healthy environment.

Now I am going to tell you about extremely easy habits, which are also great for the nature.

First of all, I avoid plastic bags with nearly every purchase. I always put an own bag in my purse. I do not need an extra bag at every store, because I put all the things together. It is an easy way to save the environment. Furthermore, it is great for the fish in the oceans, because nearly all the plastic lands in the oceans.

Another really easy and effective habit is to use reusable water bottles. I save money, because I need not to buy my water at the store. I think this is a big advantage. In addition to that I always know where my water comes from. Further, in my mind water from a tube tastes a lot of better than water which was stored in a shop for such a long time.

Another thing which I like to do is, to walk instead of driving by car. My best friend’s house is 15 minutes away. I always try to walk and it is great, especially when the sun is shining and the birds are singing.

I am sure it is possible for you to change some habits, in order to have a great environment.

I hope you enjoyed my entry! See you soon!
