Are we aware in preserving the environment? Is there
any thing we can do about it? Let's take a review how important habitat
is and how to preserve it.
1. Join the Green Movement
There are many organizations, at a local, national and international
level devoted to preserving the environment. Together they form the
"Green movement."
Whenever a habitat is threatened by industry or development, the Green
movement takes the side of the environment. These groups already enjoy
considerable public support, but their most important work is education.
Unless people understand how threats to the environment affect them,
they cannot appreciate the importance of preserving habitats.
Many farmers are sympathetic to the Green movement, despite the pressure
to grow the maximum amount of food. Some make an effort to preserve
small areas of woodland and hedgerow and are careful not to spray these
areas with pesticides. A few have turned their backs on modern methods
and use no chemicals at all, either in pesticides or fertilizers.
2. Organic Farming
Farming without chemicals is known as organic farming. In several
countries, organic produce has become very popular. Because no chemicals
are used to grow the food, there are none to enter the human food chain.
In addition, by choosing organic produce, people think they are also
choosing to save the countryside.
3. Saving the Rainforest
In the developing countries, action is finally being taken to save the
rain forests. In Africa, the Ivory Coast recently banned all timber
exports. In Central America, the government of Panama made it illegal to
cut down any tree more than five years old. Such actions show great
determination, because timber exports have been a major source of
income.
It is difficult to persuade poor people in developing countries of the
importance of saving the forests. They need more food and want to use
the land to grow it on. What is at stake is not just our enjoyment of
nature, but the future of life on Earth and our children and
grandchildren to see the beauty of the Earth.
