1. Propose creative alternatives that we can implement (at home, our school, in the city, etc.) that will help us reduce our impact on the environment.
  • Be creative, you can use images on your post.
  • Write at least one paragraph.
  • Put your name at the end like this:

In fact, what I believe is that the governments of each country should put sanctions on factories that pollute. Besides, I think that companies that create food, among other things so that they pollute, should do something good for the environment since they only pollute it and that causes damage to the entire environment and we harm ourselves without realizing it.
Actions that save the world from this problem
-Use energy efficiently
-Manage water responsibly
-try to plant a small tree that helps and purifies everyone's air
-Avoid the use of cars and buses that emit toxic gases
-Try to avoid the use of plastic

Ideas to reduce pollution:
Going by car or bus decreases, better go by bicycle.
Eat organic products.
Recycle.
Reduce the consumption of plastics.
It reduces the excessive use of water and electricity.
Choose renewable energy.
Use recyclable bags when you go grocery shopping.

Some peoples start searching and creating solution; so with that the contamination can reduce; but it’s not only the trash; the overpopulation affect to since the countries grow and the green zones start despairing, some solutions to the contaminations can be plant more trees so the air can start to reduce CO2 that produce the factories and cars, also if we plant more plants we can start producing more green zones. The technology can help us to communicate to the people that we have to stop contaminating our planet, since we can do videos or web pages, also we can do lives explain how the contamination affects in our lives and environment, the school can act now doing conferences, and talking more about the protection of the environment in the class; and also starting with the trash cans we can put color to classified the trash. We can stop using plastic things since someone’s take a lot of time to degrade, its more help full the things that we can use again and not trash  this solution helps a lot to the ocean and to the air.  we can do a fertilizer to the plants, you can plant the seed of vegetables and fruits and have your own products and help to the environments since give more purificate air.

Consumption of natural resources that cause the destruction of the ecosystem for the exploitation of deposits implies the erosion of the soil, the loss of vegetation and biodiversity. Generation of waste, emissions and discharges this to that the burning of fossil fuels generates greenhouse gas emissions. As you already know, the human has a great impact on the world and electricity is a great impact since it pollutes a lot for this reason here are some recommendations to reduce the consum of electricity:

  • Use low-consumption bulbs: they save up to 75% energy.
  • Turn off the light in the environments that you are not using.
  • Use natural light for as long as you can.
  • Unplug all electrical appliances that you are not using.
  • Paint the ceilings and walls of your rooms with light colors, to have better lighting
  • Close the refrigerator door tightly so that it does not consume too much energy.

Although they are not the only effects and that the change in the soil will then directly alter the climate of the place by having less moisture retention, causing droughts.
As you have seen, there are two types of deforestation that exist. Against the natural, little can be done while that carried out by man is possible to control it, for this there are numerous organizations that fight to take care of the environment in order to prevent the climate and oxygen from changing as well as to avoid the disappearance of flora and fauna of a place.

 Most people are not aware of the damage they cause to the environment and to ourselves, because some things expel toxic things. Humans contaminate too throwing their grabage on the oceans, floor, etc and the animals it them and they dead. The human impact has generated millions of things so great that for some people it can be fun but for others it is not. Humans have caused the extinction of animals not only 1 if not several animals, one of the things that I have heard is sport hunting and it means hunting for fun and the problem is that we are destroying the fauna and as another example the felling of trees that we are destroying the flora and our own oxygen since the air we breathe comes from there. I think that some solution that we can do are:
  • Do some posters that say that we dont have to take advantage of the flora an fauna
  • The people that do ilegal things that are like kill animals for fun be reported.
  • Make a web site with all the information about what we damage 
  • Put more garbages in the city
  • Keep our garbage and when we see a place that we can throw so we can throw.

It is estimated that by 2050 the number of premature deaths resulting from exposure to suspended particles will more than double and will reach 3.6 million each year on the planet.
Some ideas to try to reduce this problem can be: Use public transport: This idea is about people trying to use public transport so that cars reduce the gas produced by cars. Buy local products: This idea will help in not damaging the environment so much either with plastic or with materials such as paper. Consume organic products: This idea will help you eat much healthier and not eat artificial things or objects. Reduce the consumption of plastics: This idea is about reducing the use of plastic with the method of not consuming objects that carry plastic such as plastic drink cups, etc.

In addition, taking care of the environment we not only help ourselves, we are also helping the flora and fauna of the world and future generations, so that they can live in a better world.We must value the earth and take care of the environment, in this way we are saving animals, trees and plants and all the resources of nature, so here are some ideas of how we can contribute to change and care of the environment.

ºTurn off the extra lights: Most of the time we leave lights on for no reason such as corridors where we are not or empty rooms, so we must be aware that we are not using them and turn them off.

ºTake advantage of natural light: Do not use or turn on the lights when it is daytime because it's better to take advantage of the daylight that don't pollut.

ºWeb pages: Make web pages where innovative ideas are promoted to reduce pollution and improve the environment in this way it will be more efficient and fun for people to learn about the subject.

ºUse metal or reusable bottles: in this way it will no longer be necessary to use plastic bottles that end up polluting rivers and killing species, and with metal bottles we can take them everywhere and reuse them.

ºSecond-hand clothing: One way to help improve the environment is to buy certain clothing items from second-hand clothing stores.

human activity is a great threat to the biodiversity of the planet , this is because the growth of the human population so far has been exponential, which means that its growth rate remains the same regardless of the size of the population. . this causes the population to grow faster and faster as it gets bigger .
human-mediated causes of biodiversity loss
  • land use change
  • pollution  
  • introduced Species
  • resource exploitation

We can solve this in our home by doing simple things like recycle because usually a lot of this garbage is burned and this produces CO2 that damages the ozone hood

Other solutions to reduce Air Pollution Impact are:


  1. Avoid smoking indoors 
  2. Use craft supplies in well-ventilated areas.
  3. Make sure the gas stove is well-ventilated.
  4. Do campaign to not contaminate the air

Pollution causes ambient temperatures to rise and the poles have been melting rapidly, breaking up into the sea.
-What should we do to prevent the poles from melting?:
-Drive as little as possible.
-Saving energy.
-Saving water.
-Recycle.
-Avoid using plastic.

- create new methods of transportation that are electric.
-Use more technology to create and innovate and make people aware of what is happening in the world.
-Try not to overpopulated cities or countries so that there is no more waste.

That could be adjustment of the combustion parameters in the furnaces, by means of the draft and excess oxygen arrangement to guarantee complete combustion, avoiding that compounds are emitted in the emissions without thermal oxidation. Contamination does not completely but it can reduce it considerably as in the Esmeraldas refinery, which was one of the first to do this in Ecuador, I even liked the way they do it, I have not entered but from afar the complete combustion of the excess is carried out. of these substances

Overconsumption, overpopulation, land loss, mass extinction of flora and fauna, decline in biodiversity, acid deposition, ozone depletion and pollution for example, this is the cause of why in the future there will be not any more a place that we can call “home”. We have to make a change and we have to do it now, starting with our minds and mentality.One simple things we can all do is to stop using plastic items since you can only use them once and they take a long time to decompose, or maybe to plant trees so the amount of CO2 that is produced by the factories and cars and contaminates the air. Also we can do videos, web pages, or lives streams explaining how the contamination affects and destroy our lives and the environment.

how can you help this to stop? first thing you can do, start recycling, use it most of times you can, search and investigate how you can recycle and help the planet, you can recycle on your own house, believe it or not! even my own sister does it, you can even earn some money from it, so go recycle.

Something like areas are created that are no longer habitable or in which social life tends to be reduced by the effect of air pollution.

Prolonged exposure to polluted air can have permanent health effects: Accelerated aging of the lungs and loss of lung capacity. Lower lung function. Development of diseases such as asthma, bronchitis, emphysema, and possibly cancer.
use of public transport and use of a private car only when absolutely necessary. alternatively, you can share private cars between several people. the fewer cars, the less emissions.

choose, when buying the car, a model with low energy consumption.

take the car for an annual review to check that the vehicle does not pollute more than what is allowed. a car in good condition will always pollute less.

of course, any movement that can be made by bicycle or on foot is less polluting than any car.

recycling not only reduces the amount of garbage on the planet, it also helps to maintain air quality: resources are used and in this way manufacturing processes that generate gases that are harmful to the atmosphere are considerably reduced.

use sprays that are respectful with the environment and do not generate greenhouse gases.

take care of the green areas of cities: many or few, function as the oxygen lung of urban centers. they don't generate as much oxygen as they do in the field, but they can help absorb co2.

at home, use low-consumption light bulbs: this will allow you to have the same light through the use of efficient energy.

do not waste water: at aquae foundation we have several tips in this regard that explain it widely, but in summary: shower and not bathe, have a double flush system in the bathroom cistern or close the taps when you are not using the water.

consuming sustainable products and reducing meat in the diet are two ways to avoid overproduction of food and, therefore, to reduce emissions.
