INHALING TOXIC AIR
Thobejane Mpho
We are exposed to air contamination as a community of Lydenburg at large, and we do not try to fight our misdoings of burning everything around us such as plastics, papers, chemicals, or some different types of plants. Do we understand the concept of global warming? I mean if we do by now we would practice ways to curb it and not make things worse by continuing to burn toxic wastes that cause harm to the atmosphere change so badly.
A large number of people in our area still refuse to bring up a change in their lives and also to change their behavior of not taking fast action on this issue. We can overcome this today, only to save the world of tomorrow. This has been happening since years ago even now and is affecting all living organisms not only that but also our land is no longer important to us humans, as it seems like no one is concerned about where we live, how we live, and who cares about the crises we are facing? We are being so careless as a community because people continue to destroy some plants that give us fresh air to breathe without replacement of the plants, which is leading to deforestation. We are also damaging our land, as we see the changes in the landscape where
we plant some crops and the quality of the soil is no longer rich, all that becomes so negative to our lives. So this has to stop as soon as possible before it destroys our health.
We can stop burning harmful and useful products on the land instead, we can reuse and recycle them. All we need to do is to reduce contamination of products to meet our needs and wants. To solve these issues again we can begin to come up with different solutions of how to maintain our wastes in harmless ways. So that we do not find our lives in danger in the future. People in our community can start alerting each other of what the issue can cost us as a whole. If we do not agree to change our ways of handling things in our environment we will be doomed. Thus we can reunite and that can help us to cope with the weather patterns nowadays caused by the emissions. To acknowledge the people about different types of pollution and also
global warming.
