Oil is polluting our land. It’s making it so that it’s hard to grow crops in some places, and also because it’s polluting our rivers, and it’s causing global warming.
Mosquitoes, fruit flies, lovebugs, and cockroaches all have something in common. They are all bugs. Or I could say, all humans kill them. I think that killing bugs is wrong because, first of all, some bugs are pollinators and pollinate our plants, and second of all, the spiders eat these bugs and it keeps them alive. So, in my opinion, you should never, ever kill bugs.
I think we should protect our oceans because the sea animals are eating the trash, and some are dying. One thing I think would help is using cardboard containers instead of plastic ones.

I know you probably don’t want to listen, but listen to this. Stop using cars, they created climate change, which means oceans can rise. I mean they are rising. Why do cars make pollution? They use gas, which pollutes the air. My opinion: I think if we start using electric cars and walk or bike when it’s nice out and you aren’t hurt, then we could slow down climate change, which means no ice melting!

When you don’t clean up your dog’s poop over time it will become nitrogen and if it rains the dog poop will flow into the river and if it’s in the river it will flow into the ocean and kill the animals and pollute all of the water including drinking water.
If we keep polluting the world will turn into trash itself. If you think that trash is great, think about 1,050,625 years into the future. The world will be trash for sure. Stop polluting, it’s not good to do. That’s not the way to safety.
