Text A THE PROBLEM OF ENVIRONMENTAL
PROTECTION
The scientific and technological progress of the twentieth century resulted in widespread mechanization, spaceships, atomic power stations, pipelines, new roads and highways. But it can not be denied that the price for rapid industrial development is very high: natural resources are exhausted; the ecological balance of the planet is disturbed; some species of flora and fauna disappear; soil, water and air are contaminated with toxic wastes ; industrial waters, chemicals and fertilizers are endangering lakes and rivers. Big cities have a problem of air pollution.
Ten years ago the word "ecology" hardly meant anything for the majority of people , but today we can't help bearing it in our minds. So, environmental protection is the main problem facing humanity nowadays.
There is no doubt that soil, water and air are contaminated with toxic wastes. Over the past few years we have been constantly speaking about ozone holes, droughts, high levels of radiation, about food contaminated with chemicals. Scientists in many countries are very much concerned about drastic changes in weather patterns. Weather patterns have been changing recently due to the global warming-up and its major reason the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is created by carbon dioxide emissions, released by industrial facilities and a constantly increasing number of cars. Thus it is of vital importance that the world should start cutting down the release of gases that contribute to the greenhouse effect.
What is the reason for people getting so much worried about the state of environment? The answer to this question is fairly simple. The thing is the deterioration of the environment is telling heavily on people. They are paying for this with their health. And it is obvious what all people need is a healthy environment.
The protection of environment is becoming a political programme in every country. Numerous antipollution acts in different countries led to considerable improvements in environment. But people all over the world should combine efforts to solve the serious problem of environmental protection. The Environmental activists stress that it is necessary to raise safety standards at all industrial facilities, to adequately process by-products of industry, to set up an international space laboratory to monitor the state of environment and set up an international centre for emergency environmental assistance. All these measures will help us in solving the vital problems and prevent the future generation from dangerous illnesses and diseases caused by polluted environment.
