Earth

We inhabit planet Earth. Earth is thus our home. Earth is also home

to thousands of other life forms. The Earth and its environment
have been adversely affected due to many of man’s wanton

activities. There has been large scale disturbance and

disequilibrium on Planet Earth. Life for man and all other life forms
has thus been disturbed. Some life forms have become extinct and

many life forms are endangered. All life on Earth is affected due to
the ecological damage that has occurred due to man’s misdirected

actions. We, therefore, need to urgently make efforts to save planet

Earth.
The Earth is our home, just as it is for millions of other life forms. If

we do not protect our home, we may lose it. Then we would be
homeless and along with all life forms we would perish.

If we wish to protect the human race and all the other life forms, we

must ensure that the planet we live on is protected.
The Earth sustains life because of the natural resources like

sunshine, air water and vegetation available on the planet. We can
protect the Earth by not polluting and destroying it. Due to many of

man’s activities there has been a continuous degradation of the
Earth and its resources like air, land and water. Air pollution,

deforestation, soil erosion and water pollution are some of the

environmental problems confronting us.
By pollution and environmental degradation, life

on Earth is threatened. We must, therefore,
save the Earth.
