My Dear Children
                       This month let us see in what ways we have polluted our environment.
We had bound our river dirty by dumping the industrial waste into the river and polythene bags on the river bank. Our river and sea turned black by the sewage water. Many species in the sea are getting doomed because of the dumping of chemical substances into it. Our land has been polluted because of the usage of insecticides and fertilizers. Our entire land is polluted because of mining activities. Agricultural land has been turned into factories and industries. Our land has been hidden with many chemicals and explosives. The automobiles used by us lets out smoke which is poisonous and injurious to health. The garbage which is dumped by us on land attracts flies and various air-borne diseases. So, pure oxygen has become rare. By doing such activities we have destroyed the beauty of our mother earth. So we should take necessary actions to clean our environment by identifying in what ways we have polluted our environment. It includes:

• Reducing the usage of electric appliances
• Reducing the usage of insecticide and fertilizers to our plants
• Reducing the usage of refrigerators and air conditioners
• Recycling the waste products
• Reduce throwing cigarettes on the ground
• Growing our food locally
• Maintain a healthy ecosystem in your locality
• Reduce the dumping of garbage on the land
• Reduce the usage of wooden stove which generate excess smoke into air

All these factors reduce the environment pollution to some extent.
This beautiful mother earth is a gift for us and our children. If we don’t set things right we and our future desendents are nearer to death. With a little change in our life style we can protect our entire planet and bring back its beauty again.
