Save the Planet

Last English lesson we had the subject "Let's go green". We talked about why there is the climate change and what we can do to save life on earth. Some of us made a presentation about these subjects. I really liked the presentation. It made clear that we have to do something for our planet, if we want to live on it for a longer time. They also mentioned two organizations which protect the planet: WWF and Greenpeace.

WWF stands for World Wildlife Fund and its mission is to save the environment and make a future where humans live in harmony with nature. I have already had a look at the website of WWF. It has a very clear structure and I think it explains very well what WWF is doing. So people, who want to join this organization, are able to find out what they are going to support.

Greenpeace, the other organization, stands for peace and protecting the environment as well. On the website they say, that they exist because our earth deserves a voice. The Greenpeace people often demonstrate and so show the public what is going wrong. If you join this organization, you really have to be satisfied on what you are doing, because the demonstrators often get arrested.

I think it's good that there are organizations which want to protect the world. But I don't think that they can change people. The can just show us what is going wrong and what we can do.
After this lesson I'm thinking about using my bicycle more often. This would be good for the environment and good for me too.
