Planet Earth is our house and we all have to protect it! There are many different ways to do that! One way, is to recycle whatever we can, like paper, plastic bottles, bags, toys... But, it's not just us or the society that can protect the environment,but the whole world can! Some special filters should be put at the chimnies of the factories, in order they won't let too much carbon dioxide to the air. We should also stop using sprays, because they have a substance inside, freon, that is very harmful for the environment and destroys little by little the atmosphere! We can all prevent the distruction of our planet! Let's try it!!!
