opinion text on pollution

Pollution is one of the most serious problems we suffer, and it gets worse every day. It is the cause of seven million deaths a year, the disappearance of various species, the deterioration of the health of many people, the global dimming and the recharge of aquifers, among many other things. And all this seems not to be enough to make the rulers take effective measures to stop this reality. Unfortunately, they only act when alerts are triggered because weather conditions or polluting emissions have caused a pollution spike; and, once those alerts disappear, all the provisions are undone.

At present one of the greatest concerns of society is the care and preservation of the environment, in order to remedy the damage that man has caused and prevent it from continuing to deteriorate, since this directly and indirectly affects health and the welfare of men and other organisms. Environmental pollution is a cyclical process that involves all environments: air, water and soil, and from any perspective, living beings both emitters and receivers of pollutants.

Let us continue to use private transport unnecessarily, let us continue to misuse the heating and ignore the advice to help the planet because, totally, by the time the scenario is irremediable, we will already be dead.
