Now, we are lacking of resources, and some of it cannot be replenish. Hence, we only can save it and not wasting it. Besides that, the earth is getting warmer and warmer, the weather is getting hotter. This shows us that it is Global warming. The South and North poles’ ice is melting, the sea level rises and it is going to flood the low-lying area, and our land will be smaller.

What can we do to participate?
