While one person

60、cannot defeat things like pollution and radiation by themselves, a lot can be done to protect ones self and the environment they survive in. The first step that needs to be taken in creating a healthy environment for ones self is to be aware of the environmental dangers one is facing. While some are

61、 out of ones control, it is still important to know about them and cause awareness among others.Each year the population of the world grows by about 90 million people. The rapid population growth is dangerous to the environment and all humans because it means that water will become more scarce(不足的)

62、, waste will grow, resources will not be enough for everyone, and governmental instability(不稳定) will be possible.Air pollution is also a major problem that keeps growing all over the world. There are several contributors to air pollution. Some of the popular causes are cars, fires, and heating of ho

63、mes and buildings. Air pollution greatly affects ones health because whatever goes into the air goes into ones lungs and blood. Since most people do not know what fresh air smells or tastes like, many are ignorant of what the air pollution is doing to them. Air pollution also affects the environment

64、. It can damage trees, crops, other plants, lakes and animals. In addition to damaging the natural environment, air pollution also damages buildings, monuments and statues.It is not a surprise that water pollution is also a high danger. We have no choice but to pay more attention to the way we are u

65、sing water, and how we may be wasting it. We must bridge the gap between our understanding of the importance of water is to our survival and what we can do to ensure that we have an adequate supply of clean water for years to come.Another kind of pollution that often gets ignored is noise pollution.

66、 Most people are used to the noise that surrounds them every day. However, noise pollution can damage ones hearing and even ones mental health .The source of noise pollution is caused by loud music, machine noises and automobile and plane noises.Even though the world population is increasing just as

67、 fast as air, water, and noise pollution, it does not mean that protecting the earth or ones own health is a lost cause. The first step in preventing more pollution is knowledge. The more one knows about pollution and preventing pollution, the more one can do. The other step in preventing pollution

68、is to make healthier changes every day.TitleHow to be healthy with everyday pollutionPhenomenonEnvironmental pollution has become more dangerous than ever.The first thing one can doBe (71) _ of the environmental dangers one is facing.AimTo(72)_ ones self and the environment they survive inThe rapid
