ESSAY 1
I think that my country has problems with pollution to the environment like all other
countries. This problem is normal for Russia. We have big problems with transport
because there are too much cars in our country. And because of that we have problems
with atmospeer, air in my city and in all Russia is really dirty and sometimes I can’t
make a sigh because it smells around me and of course around that cars on the road.
I’ve heard about tradition of one country. They don’t go anywhere by car one day a
month or a year, they just use bycicle or their feet. I think it could be very good if we
had a tradition like that.
So, what about the rivers and the seas? Yeah, there are some really good and clean
rivers and seas where you can go, but there are not many of them. Once I saw the
river OB in my city, it was about two years ago but I stil remember that in some places
it was not blue, it was green or purple I didn’t really understand because it had
different colours.
I don’t know what should we do. Maybe we should just open our eyes and look what
we did. But Russian people don’t care about the world around them many people care
only about themselves an that’s all.
ESSAY 2
DEVELOPMENT VS ENVIRONMENT
If we surf the web looking for pollution and environmental catastrophes, we
will find out that every country in the world suffers them. This is a natural
consequence of the struggle between development and environment.
If a country decided to live isolated from the rest of the world, living on what
it can naturally grow and produce, it surely wouldn’t be highly polluted. But
we all want exotic food and technological items from all over the world, so we
have to pay the price.
Investing on electrical transport would benefit the environment a lot. Even
more if this electricity came from a natural source of energy like wind, rivers
and solar boards. It’s difficult to achieve this because petrol companies will
fight against these actions.
We also have to take care of our rivers and seas. We all have heard about
factories throwing highly toxic substances to rivers, without minimizing their
poisoning effects. A really strict law should be applied to fine these factories
and make them change their policy.
But what about ourselves? We also can do a lot! If, when possible, we bought
larger packs of food, we would be producing less rubbish. And this is only an
example!
