Everyone needs to start helping endangered species. People must stop the destruction of the earth by cutting down on pollution of the land. People also need to stop the pollution of the air as well. Another important thing that my community needs to stop polluting is the water that animals drink. People must stop the destruction of the earth by stopping the pollution of land, air, and water.

People must stop the destruction of the earth by cutting down on the pollution of land. Some people think that protecting animals for saving the land doesn’t matter because some people don’t even like animals. Rain forests, wet lands, and prairies have decreased greatly, destroying the way animals live (“Road”). Land is being cleared for new businesses, companies, and stores. Animals are losing their habitats, and have to keep changing where they live (“Road”). With the human population being so over populated, the animals are yet again, losing their habitats (“Road”). Air is just as important as land.

People must stop the destruction of the earth by stopping the pollution of air. Some people may not believe it necessary to watch air pollution, because their atmosphere is clean, and they don’t experience air pollution. Smog has cause animals to have to move, and with the smog being so thick, animals are being killed because of it (“Road”). Greenhouse gases have led polar bears and such animals to become endangered. When animals that are important to my society become endangered it affects the future, and determines if there will be any other polar bears in the near future or other animals. Sulfur dioxide is causing acid rain to pollute my area, which is greatly affecting endangered species (“Road”). Acid rain doesn’t affect us as much as it does animals. Acid rain erodes trees, and for some animals that’s where they live (“Road”). Air is very important to animals, and humans, but I want clean water.

Water is a crucial thing that I and animals need to survive. Some people think that water isn’t something important to worry about because, they might not realize how important water really is. Now, with dirty drinking water, animals just can’t live (“Road”). Poisons have seeped into underground water systems, and the poisons are making animals suffer (“Road”). Seventy three different pesticides are in water that kills animals. Also, 40% of U.S. rivers are so polluted that aquatic life can’t survive (“Road”).

Some people don’t care about endangered animals, but we need to realize how important animals really are to the ecosystem. People must stop the destruction of the earth by cutting down on the pollution if land, air, and water which is causing endangered species. Everyone needs to take charge, and figure out what they need to do to help save animals from becoming extinct.
