Answer 1

Answer: It is necessary to protect the environment to have survival of living beings. Already there is increase in the global warming due to increase in the carbon dioxide gas in the atmosphere. This is causing increased temperature and hence the glaciers are melting at a speedy rate.

There are water crisis over all the world and people are drinking dirty water as there is no availability of water. The one of the step we can do is to eliminate the use of plastics. When these plastics are burnt produces harmful gases. So, minimizing the use of plastics bags can prevent the environment.

Afforestation is one of the useful source to maintain the temperature level as due to increased population trees are being cut down and hence causes increase in the temperature.

Water can be reserved as well as using water wisely can prevent the water. We should focus on all these process through which we can directly or indirectly can save our environment.
