Is our environment suffering? Yes, a resounding yes. we see in the recent years, that there has been reports of the ice-caps melting and the air quality worsening. All these reports shows that our environment is indeed suffering at the moment.
from the above statistics, we are able to see that that over the years, the overall emission of gas is increasing and this proves to be harmful for the environment. we see from the second picture, that the emission of gases like nitrogen dioxide and carbon dioxide have negative effects
on the environment for these are greenhouse gases. and we see that these green house gases will cause environmental problems like the 'greenhouse effect'. And we see that from the first figure, we can tell that the the overall temperature has been constantly rising over the recent years, this is part of the global warming effect that has resulted from the greenhouse effect.
We see that the cause behind environmental is mainly the result of modernization yet we can't reduce environmental pollution without modernizing. thus we must try and do all we can to save the environment. Saving the environment starts with you and me! so start now =)
