环保是一个很大的工程，但我们可以从身边的小事做起，为保护环境做很多事。

我们每天都要用纸，你知道纸张是怎么来的吗?是用大树来造纸的。全世界每年都要砍掉很多树来造纸。我看过一个专题电视，节约1500张纸，就可以保留一棵大树。大树是我们的好朋友，它可以把二氧化碳变为氧气，可以降低噪音，可以挡住风沙，可以防止水土流失……从我做起，节约每一张纸，全世界的小朋友可以节约很多很多纸，就可以保留很多很多大树，就可以留下一片大森林，沙漠越来越少，空气越来越清新，绿色越来越多。我多希望我的家乡山更青、水更绿，我们生活的环境永远鸟语花香。

我们生活中用到的电池，它含有铅，如果把它随手乱扔，1节废电池可以使一平方米的土壤失去永远的利用价值。很多国家、很多地区都开展了废电池的回收。在德国，购买新电池的时候，必须将废旧电池交回来。所以，我们应该给给废电池找个“家”。我希望我们攀枝花的环保部门也设立废旧电池回收站。好好的保护土壤，让它可以永远长出庄稼。

节约一张纸、回收一节废旧电池……我们做的虽然是小事，但却为环保做了大贡献。我希望我的同学们从现在开始，都来做一个环保小卫士。地球只有一个，我们都要好好爱护它。

今天我在此呼吁大家保护环境！保护环境？为什么？因为现在的环境已大不如从前，如果我们还不保护他，那害的终是我们自己。

人们都说，地球是人类的母亲，环境是人类的资源。而当子女做的事不对，母亲肯定会罚之。你们想想现在沙尘暴、泥石流、雾霾等不好现象多次出现，是因为什么？是因为我们不保护环境。北京就是个例子，那里的工厂经常把垃圾不分类就埋在地下，于是把水污染了，所以北京现在很缺水，用的水都是漂白水，再加上垃圾经常埋在地下，占据土地，使土地不平均，经常出现沙尘暴。北京的私家车特多，路上都会有大量废气，再加上工厂，使北京常年在雾霾中生活，难以出行。

不仅如此，由于人类放肆破坏环境，现在有了一种叫“PM2。5”的可吸入颗粒物。它们传播在空气中，每吸一口气都会有“PM2。5”，而它们极小，是头发丝的二十分之一不止，因此它们可以轻易地在我们身体游动。几乎排不出，它们长期在人类身体居住，使人类出现血管缩小等不良现象。而雾霾里就有许多“PM2。5”。

俗话说，大自然不需要人类，人类却需要大自然。和大自然相比人类是渺小的，可人类依着数量多，运用垃圾、废气等，不断破坏大自然。而大自然将资源给予我们，却受到我们的攻击，大自然也会反击，它利用自然力量可以把我们的生活击毁，而人类不停地破坏，最终受害的还是我们自己。地球一没，全人类都得亡。

那我们要怎么保护环境呢？首先，我们要尽可能地反复利用资源，垃圾分类，最好环保地处理掉垃圾。尽量“绿色出行”，少坐私家车，出门坐公交。出门“五宝”，餐具、环保袋、饭盒、水瓶和手帕，尽量不用一次性物品，减少垃圾。不说人人，只要是全世界70%这样做，我们的地球一定会再次湛蓝。

保护环境，人人有责，让我们打起“蓝天保护战”，让我们后代，有个更好的生活环境吧！

Economic development and environmental protection are a pressing issue primarily for developing countries where, in trying to catch up with developed countries, they have to consume natural resources on an unprecedented scale. This has seriously polluted our environment and, with the global environmental campaign gaining momentum, many people in China call for the precedence of environmental protection over economic development.

Any attempt to pose economic development and environmental protection as diametrically contradictory is simple-minded. Since no country is willing to stop its economic development, the best way is to strike a balance between the two and to heighten the environmental awareness of those solely concerned with economic development.

European countries both economically developed and environmentally friendly can serve as perfect examples for China. Their success story in both undertakings illustrates that environmental protection does not mean a complete standstill of economic activities or exploitation of natural resources, but rather an active development and application of effective technologies to minimize environmental consequences. In Germany, environmental protection has become part of economic development as it boasts the world s most successful environmental industry. With a developed economy, we are well equipped to develop sophisticated technologies that can effectively safeguard our environment.

[英语作文：经济发展与环境保护

Recently, the problem of environmental pollution is getting more and more

serious. The air pollution, noise pollution and water pollution are found on the

newspaper everywhere. It is obvious that we should do something to protect our

earth. Because we have only one home. We should try our best not to pollute the

environment and appeal the people around us make their effort to protect our

unique home.

Mothers Day Mother’s Day is a holiday when children honor their mothers with

cards, gifts and flowers. In many countries, such as Denmark, Finland, Italy,

Turkey, Australia and the US, people cel lebrate Mother’s Day on the second

Sunday in May while many other countries of the world celebrate their own

Mother’s day at different times through out the year.

One of the best ways to celebrate Mother’s Day is to give your mom the day

off. Let her relax with the rest of the family doing all the housework. Usually,

dad and the kids will let mom sleep late that morning as they go into the

kitchen to prepare her favourite breakfast. Never forget to place a vase with a

single flower on the table beside the food. The kids can pick up the flower from

the garden or buy one from the shop. Arrange everything nicely before mom wakes

up. Some families will carry the food and mom’s favourite sections from the

newspaper to her bedroom so that mom can have breakfast in bed. Presents and

cards from the kids can be handed to mom by themselves or just placed on the

dining table.

After breakfast, go anywhere mom likes to go. Shopping, swimming or going on

a picnic in the garden. Make a special Mother’s Day dinner or take mom out for a

great meal in a famous restaurant she loves most.

Anyway ,let mom enjoy the whole day and feel your love, and then the Mother’s

Day can be a good one. As Mother’s Day is around the corner, it’s time to take

actions!

Recently, our efforts to protect wild animals was questioned by the public,

because the news is keep reporting that more and more wild animals was killed by

human beings, especially the very precious one. Innocent animals was dead for

their meat, fur and tooth, it was just used to fill up human beings desire. In

my point of view, the wild animals were protected effectively still has a long

way to go.

Firstly, people should try harder to make a better place for animals. The

land where the wild animals live was deprived by human being. For hundreds

years, people cut the trees to make land for their living and farming, wild

animals homeland was took, they have no choice but run away. What is more,

human beings break the food link in nature; wild animals can not find enough

food to keep alive. There is no doubt that the destruction of nature has become

a big problem to kill wild animal, for instance, a polar bear was starved to

death because of the greenhouse effect, the ice was melt away, the seadog and

fish that polar bear like to eat are far away from them. For those reasons,

people should protect the environment first if they want to protect wild animals

effectively.

Second, no buying, no killing. Some rich people like to wear fur coat, they

treat it as a status symbol, especially for rich woman, they think animal fur is

beautiful and warm, they will never consider that the fur they wear for years is

the skin that animal wear for their whole life, and they knew how bloody when

people took the fur from animal but they choose to ignore it. If people do not

buy the fur and tooth, lots of wild animals will be survived.

In sum, wild animals are our friends, we should give back and protect their

homeland, and stop buying their body part, or our future generations will see

them in zoo and museum.

Cherish resources, protecting the environment, only a few words, this is very important, for example, we go out to play, etc. The words will be held.

Earths resources are limited, could have uninterrupted growth, but because of the excessive development of people, these resources can hardly continue to regeneration. Water is indispensable to mankind, it gave birth to all life, he is our mother, but water has always been some dont know to cherish, will only waste, wasted a lot of water on earth, but only very little for us to drink the water, the other is the water of the sea, so we should protect water resources. Biological resources is very important also, he can let us survive, so we cant destroy any creature in the food chain, if damaged, will be big disaster, there are always some damn poachers, the capture of wild animals, such as elephants, rhinos, etc., so we need to protect any type of resource, let him not be damaged.

Protect the environment, cherish resources, from small start.

珍惜资源，保护环境，这单单几个字，却非常重要，比如我们出去玩等地方都会有这几个字。

地球上的资源是有限的，本来可以不间断的生长，可是由于人们的过度开发，这些资源都没法继续再生了。水资源是人类不可缺少的东西，它孕育了一切生命，他就是我们的母亲，可是水资源总是被一些不懂得珍惜，只会浪费的人浪费了，地球上的水很多，但只供我们饮用的水很少，其他的都是海水，所以我们要保护水资源。生物资源也很重要，他可以让我们生存下去，所以我们不能破坏食物链中的任何生物，如果破坏了，将发生大灾难，总有一些可恶的偷猎者，在捕捉野生动物，如大象，犀牛等，所以我们要保护任何资源，不让他被破坏。

保护环境，珍惜资源，从小事做起。

Environmental pollution can cause direct damage and impact to ecosystems, such as desertification and forest damage, which can also cause indirect hazards to ecosystems and human societies. Sometimes the harm of this indirect environmental effect is greater than the direct hazard caused by it, It is more difficult to eliminate. For example, the greenhouse effect, acid rain, and ozone depletion are the environmental effects derived from atmospheric pollution. This environmental effect derived from environmental pollution is lagging behind, often at the time of the occurrence of pollution is not easy to be perceived or expected, but in the event of environmental pollution has been developed to a very serious point. Of course, the most direct and most environmentally conscious consequence of environmental pollution is the decline in the quality of the human environment, affecting human quality of life, physical health and productive activities. Such as the citys air pollution caused by air pollution, peoples morbidity and so on; water pollution so that the deterioration of water quality, drinking water quality generally decline, threatening human health. Serious pollution incidents not only bring health problems, but also cause social problems. With the increase in pollution and peoples awareness of the environment, due to pollution caused by population disputes and conflicts increased year by year.

Let us all love nature, love the earth, hand in hand, shoulder to shoulder, heart to cast a green embankment, to defend the resources, to defend the environment, to defend the earth, to defend our beautiful home now!

环境污染会给生态系统造成直接的破坏和影响，如沙漠化、森林破坏、也会给生态系统和人类社会造成间接的危害，有时这种间接的环境效应的危害比当时造成的直接危害更大，也更难消除。例如，温室效应、酸雨、和臭氧层破坏就是由大气污染衍生出的环境效应。这种由环境污染衍生的环境效应具有滞后性，往往在污染发生的当时不易被察觉或预料到，然而一旦发生就表示环境污染已经发展到相当严重的地步。当然，环境污染的最直接、最容易被人所感受的后果是使人类环境的质量下降，影响人类的生活质量、身体健康和生产活动。例如城市的空气污染造成空气污浊，人们的发病率上升等等;水污染使水环境质量恶化，饮用水源的质量普遍下降，威胁人的身体健康等。严重的污染事件不仅带来健康问题，也造成社会问题。随着污染的加剧和人们环境意识的提高，由于污染引起的人群纠纷和冲突逐年增加。

让我们都来关爱自然，热爱地球吧，手挽手、肩并肩、心连心地铸起一道绿色环保的大堤，捍卫资源、捍卫环境、捍卫地球、捍卫我们美好的家园吧!

Environmental protection is every one of us to do, make the responsibility of each of us, once you live in the earth, you have to protect the environment, because we want for our children and grandchildren, give them a good living environment, and not to harm the environment and harm to our children and grandchildren.

Its our duty to protect the environment, and some people said: this is an important task, we are a little, it should give the big man to do, we have to do is not to undermine. Many people agree that in the face of this statement, and the I will against it. In fact, environmental protection is more than a great thing, or do we all the citizens of these things, and they will go to the governance, we control our things, mind your own affairs, because environmental protection from a small one.

Environmental protection is a small matter, dont throw a piece of junk, dont chop down a tree, not a one-time items... Maybe, you have the conditions, is a piece of junk, recycling plant a tree, with an item again... This is to protect the environment, is so simple, need not you do more difficult things, environmental protection is just as simple as that.

环保是我们每个人要做的事情，使我们每个人的责任，你一旦生活在地球，你就要保护环境，因为我们要为我们的子孙后代着想，给他们一个好的身活环境，而不是去破坏环境，危害我们的子孙。

保护环境是我们的责任，而有的人却说：这是一个重任，我们是个小人物，这应该给大人物去办，我们不破坏就行了。面对这种说法，很多人都同意，而我就反对。其实，环保不止是大人物的事情，还是我们这些市民的事情，而他们就去治理大事，我们就治理我们的事情，管好自己的小事，因为环保是从一件小事做起的。

保护环境其实是一件小事，不扔一件垃圾、不砍一棵树、不用一次性用品……也许，你有条件的话，就回收一件垃圾、种一棵树、再次用一件物品……这都是保护环境的行为，就是如此简单，不用你做更难的事情了，环保只是这么简单。

The spring festival is Chinese most traditional festival every 365 days.

Each Chinese pay much attention on it. Every year about 15 days before spring

festival， the migrate works and white-collars are beginning crowded

home-returning.

But， in recent years， with the development of the world， many different

attitudes between the young and the old towards the spring festival come forth.

The old are still pay more attention to the spring festival， but the young

gradually change the mode to spend their spring festival holiday， such as travel

overseas.

When I am a childhood， I celebrated the spring festival with my family

about a month in my winter vacation in traditional way， such as helping cleaning

our houses， putting red couplets on gates， setting off firecrackers， and wear

new clothes. Now， I spend only 4 or 5 days at home with my parents in

celebrating the spring festival， then I will hurry back to work. Maybe in the

near future， I will have no time celebrating spring festival hometown， and my

parents have to come to stay with us in the city.

Whether or no， I like the spring festival. It is one of the most important

part of our Chinese culture. However busy I am， I will try my best to

celebrating it with the traditional way to protect those our ancestor has leave

behind.

Life, environmental pollution continuously affects our lives. Such as: polluted air, rivers and garbage pollution, etc., has seriously damaged our living environment.

Rivers are polluted, the creature will not be able to survive in the water, also cant use it to irrigate crops, the human will not eat fresh food. If same, groundwater contamination, people will drink less than clean water, humans will get sick, poisoning, and it may even die. So, no one should be put on the possible environmental pollution of waste into the river.

Air is a guarantee to the survival of all living creatures. If the air is polluted, all creatures will live in the "gas", disease and all kinds of disasters will be the humanitys greatest enemy. Last, mankind will perish. Visible, clean air is how important!

Garbage can be seen everywhere in our daily life, the visible human bad habits - littering behavior is really too serious. Random pile up garbage can cause great harm to the environment, such as: air pollution in a breeding ground for germs, sexually transmitted diseases, and river and so on.

The pollution was terrible! To prevent the pollution, we must care for the environment, protect the earth, to stop all the pollution of the environment.

生活中，环境污染不断地影响着我们的生活。比如：被污染的空气、河流和垃圾污染等等，已经严重地破坏了我们的生活环境。

河流被污染了，水中的生物将无法生存，也不能用它浇灌庄稼，人类将吃不到新鲜的食物。同样，地下水如果被污染，人们将喝不到洁净的水，人类将会生病、中毒，甚至可能会死亡。所以，任何人都不应该往河里投放有可能污染环境的废弃物。

空气是所有生物赖以生存的保证。如果空气被污染了，所有生物将会生活在“毒气室”一样的环境里，疾病和各种灾难将会是人类最大的敌人。日久天长，人类就会灭亡。可见，洁净的空气是多么重要啊!

垃圾在生活中随处可见，可见人类的坏习惯——乱丢垃圾的行为实在太严重了。随意堆放的垃圾会对环境造成很大的危害，例如：滋生病菌、传播疾病、污染空气以及河流等等。

这些污染真是可怕呀!要预防这些污染，我们一定要爱护环境，保护地球，制止一切污染环境的行为。

家是我们每个人生活的小环境，学校是我们学生学习的大环境，环境的好坏是我们每一人的责任，如果我们的环境被破坏了，我们将会失去这一切。

记得有一次，妈妈带我去公园里玩，公园里有很多漂亮的鲜花，有几个小朋友摘了很多鲜花，我对妈妈说：“我也想要。”妈妈对我说：“如果人人都像那几个小朋友那样，公园里还看的东西都被毁坏了，那还有漂亮的公园呢？”我很失望，可我一想，妈妈的话是对的，保护环境应该从我做起，我要做一个保护环境的小卫士。

就像我们的学校，如果每位学生都不自觉，你折树，他摘花，我们的学校还会像现在一样漂亮吗？假如我们都能保护好环境，我们的未来会更美好！

我认为保护环境应该从我做起，如果我们每个人都自觉地保护环境，我们的校园、家园、国家、世界、未来才会更加美好。

st important role in the environmental protection today.

In my opinion, to protect environment, the government must take even more concrete measures. First, it should let people fully realize the importance of environmental protection through education. Second, much more efforts should be made to put the population planning policy into practice, because more people means more people means more pollution. Finally, those who destroy the environment intentionally should be severely punished. We should let them know that destroying environment means destroying mankind themselves.

Since we go to school, the teachers educate us to be a better person, they

tell us that we must study hard, so that we can be the useful person. Many

students confuse about what is the useful person. In my opinion, the useful

person must have the good merit.

A person with the kind heart is favored by everyone and he has the sense to

serve others. The bad person will bring danger to others, even to the society.

The most important thing of the useful person is to make a contribution to the

society.

They will make full use of their knowledge and be proud of serving for the

society. Our premier Zhou stated his purpose of learning knowledge was to make

our country rise. He did it and he became the great person. Becoming the useful

person is not easy, we should fight for it.

As Chinese traditional virtue, helping others and taking care of each other

are the basic virtue of a person. We are lucky that we are born to be a healthy

person, while some persons are not that lucky, they may be born to be a disable

man or get hurt by accidents. Out of the basic virtue, it is not right to laugh

at them, we need to help each other, showing our love to them. December 3rd,

2013 is World Disabled Day, the day reminds people of the care about disable

men. The disable often ignored by us, since they are special group, we should

take care of them, give them our hands. We can do something for them, like

helping them when cross the road. We can help them from small things, helping

each other makes the world more beautiful.

我们的祖国虽然资源、物产比较丰富。可是，你知道吗?光光这些都还不够，更重要的是要注重环保!

Although our motherland is rich in resources, products. But, you know? Only these are not enough, it is more important to pay attention to environmental protection!

我觉得，政府应该多多提倡环保，多多参与环保工作，为环保做贡献，组织好环保是最关键的。你们说，是吗?

I think, the government should take to promote environmental protection, actively participate in the environmental protection work, make a contribution to protecting the environment, organization of environmental protection is the key. You say, yes?

首先，应该告诉市民，要关注每一件环保的事，积极做环保工作，不要随手扔垃圾、看到垃圾要及时捡起。其次，要把废旧电池该扔哪的问题解决好，应该把这件事给做得更完善：在一些地方分放一些回收废旧电池的筒，每天都有专门负责的人去取。这样一来，不管是住在偏远地区，还是住在热闹的地方，都可以很方便的把废旧电池处理了，再也不会发生人们不知道废旧电池怎么处理，就把废旧电池扔进垃圾箱里的事了。最后，政府应该增加一个环保工作者的职务，让更多的人投身于环保工作当中!

First of all, should tell the people, pay attention to every green thing, to do environmental protection work, do not readily throw garbage, garbage to pick up see. Secondly, to throw the waste batteries which to solve the problem, should put this thing to do better in some places put some recycling waste batteries, cylindrical, every day there are responsible for people to get. In this way, whether it is to live in the remote areas, or in the bustling place, can be very convenient to the handling of used batteries, and it wont happen again and people dont know how to deal with the waste batteries, waste batteries thrown in the garbage again. Finally, the government should increase a environmental protection worker job, let more people involved in environmental protection work!

为了环保，行动起来吧!

To be environmentally friendly, action!

There is no doubting the great benefits which scientific advances have brought us 。 Yet we have become increasingly aware that some technologies’ developing brings unexpected and harmful side effects 。

A number of factories spring up like mushrooms ，exhausting much waste gas ， which leads to the greenhouse effect and air pollutions 。 Plentiful trees are cut down that causes the lands to change into the deserts 。 At the same time ， varieties of species are gradually extincting 。 These phenomenons give us clear warnings of the dangers of failing to live harmony with nature 。

We ought to set up a profound mind to protect our environment 。 For the governments ，they should make detail laws and policies to observe the behaviors of destroying the environment 。 Factories should exhaust polluted water or gas after dealing with rather than merely pursue the economic interests 。 Planting as more as possible trees ， in case of the water and soil erosion 。 For farmers ， they must reduce spraying the insecticides 。 We also must make less use of plastic materials and one—off products 。 In addition ， we wouldn’t throw the rubbish anywhere 。 Thus ， we at least can maintain our environment in a good state 。 However ， that’s not enough 。 We are supposed to work harder to protect our environment 。

[英语作文怎样做到保护环境

星期五的那一天下午班队课，我们去了梯形教师听王远航爸爸讲关于环境的知识。

到了梯形教室，等其他班到了，我们唱起美妙的歌，歌声在梯形教室里飘荡。

打了上课铃，我们停止了唱歌，静静的听着王远航爸爸上课。王远航爸爸问：“你们知道一天有多少垃圾吗？”有的同学说“不知道”，有的同学说：“大约有50吨吧”。“大约有3500吨”王远航爸爸的话让我们传来一阵阵惊叹声，王远航爸爸又说：“你们知道世界上最大最重的动物是什么吗”？“蓝鲸”有几个同学回答。王宇航爸爸说：“对是蓝鲸一头蓝鲸大约重1500吨一天的垃圾大约就是两条蓝鲸重量”。

然后王远航爸爸打开视频，指着几幅照片说当我们还是在睡梦中时，保洁员就在工作了。当我们吃着美味丰富的早餐，保洁员忙得早上只能两人一起共着吃一个鸡蛋。我们用干净的水洗澡和洗手，可他们只能用下雨的水洗手。保洁员最讨厌的是他在前面扫地，后面却有人在丢垃圾。王远航爸爸又问，你们知道什么东西可以用了再用吗？一个同学说：“易拉罐，钢铁，喝完水的瓶子……。“对”王宇航爸爸又问“你们知道最不容易腐烂的东西是什么吗？”“电池”很多同学回答。王远航爸爸说：“不对，是玻璃”王宇涵爸爸的话刚说完，就打放学铃了。

从这次王远航爸爸给我们上完这节课让我们对环境又有许多了解，我们以后不乱丢乱扔，垃圾分类，不破坏花草树木。

Environmental problems are as big as not for individual country or individual people to address。 In other word， we have reached the stage that environmental problems be solved for international view。 To what extent do you agree or disagree?

In recent years， many nations have bee more aware of the environmental issues each nation faces， such as air and water pollution。 The question is， are the environmental issues a national problem or an international problem? It is my belief that the environmental issues have grown to the point of being an international problem needing international cooperation to resolve。

Because of the differences in environmental policies， resources and technology， international cooperation could provide quicker results and have a greater impact on bringing resolution to environmental problems for nations of differing environmental policies and of lesser resources and technology。 By pooling international resources and technology to address the environmental problems， the disadvantaged nations are provided the assistance needed。 Otherwise their environmental conditions deteriorate ultimately affecting the resources and environment of the world as a whole。

One of the difficulities to an international resolution to environmental issues is the difference in individual nations view and policies toward environmental protection。 In order for international cooperation to occur and succeed， the nations of the world must submit themselved to international standards and supervision by an international mission elected by the participating nations of the world。 All members must agree to abide by the standards established。

The environmental issues facing each country are not unrelated to the well being of the rest of the world。 The impact is long term and international in scope。 Without international cooperation and agreement to address such environmental issues as glacial melting at the South Pole， depletion of the ozone layer， water pollution， air polution， etc。， the environmental conditions of the world will deteriorate to the detriment of every nation， not just those that ignore or lack the resources and technology to resolve their individual environmental problems。

As part of the same planet， it is the responsibility of each individual and nation to protect the global environment。 Only international cooperation will provide the timely solutions and the effectiveness needed to stop the deteriorating global environment。

[保护环境四级英语作文

The quality of human life has improved greatly over the past few centuries, but Earth is being harmed more and more by human activity. As we develop our technology, we demand more from our planet. Eventually, this will harm people as well.

Our planet gives us everything we need, but natural resources are not endless. Strip mining devastates whole regions, leaving bare and useless ground. Deforestation removes old growth trees that cant be replaced. Too much fishing may harm fish populations to the point where they cant recover. We are too careless in taking what we want without giving anything back.

There are more people than ever, living longer that ever. So is it any surprise that many areas suffer from too much development? Anyone living in or near a city has experienced "urban sprawl". There is a new shopping area on every corner and new houses, townhouses and apartments everywhere. Traffic gets worse and worse because planners cant keep up with growth. Keeping up with human demand is hard enough. Environmental concerns come in last.

With growth comes pollution. Companies and communities dump waste into water. Landfills are full of trash. Emissions from factories pollute the air. Barrels of industrial waste and worse, radioactive waste, have no safe place to go. If were not careful, we can harm our planet beyond repair.

People need to respect the Earth and try to preserve it. If we dont, what kind of future will we have?

Saving Water

The world is not only hungry,but also thirsty for water. This may seem strange to you, since nearly 75 % of the earths surface is covered with water. But about 97% of this huge amount is sea water, or salt water. Man can only drink and use the other 3% -- the fresh water that comes from rivers, lakes,underground, and other sources. And we cannot even use all of that, because some of it is in the form of icebergs and glaciers. Even worse, some of it has been polluted.

However, as things stand today, this small amount of fresh water, which is constantly being replaced by rainfall, is still enough for us. But our need for water is increasing rapidly-- almost day by day. Only if we take steps to deal with this problem now can we avoid a severe worldwide water shortage later on. A limited water supply would have a bad effect on agriculture and industry. Let me give you just one small exampie of how necessary water is to industry. Did you know that to produce a single ton of steel, it takes about 91, 000 liters of water?

We all have to learn how to stop wasting our precious water. One of the first steps we should take is to develop ways of reusing it. Experiments have already been done in this field, but only on a small scale. For us, the systems are as important as the spacecraft.

节约用水

我们的世界不仅饥饿，而且因为缺水而干渴。对你来说这可能似乎奇怪：因为我们的地球表面75%由水覆盖着。但是，这巨大的数量中97%是海水、或咸水。只有剩下3%

的来自河流、湖泊、地下，和其他来源的淡水供人们饮用、使用。即使如此，这3%的水源我们也不能够完全使用，因为有些淡水是以冰山或冰河的形式存在。更糟糕的是，一些水源已遭受了污染。

然而，尽管按现状看来，这些少量的淡水即使时常转化成雨水的形式，对我们来说，也仍然够用。可是我们对水的需求却日益迅速增长。我们只有现在采取措施解决这一问

题才能避免未来世界范围内的严重水资源缺乏。限量供水会对农业和工业产生不良的影响。我们举个小小的事例就能证明水对工业的必要性。每生产一吨钢材就要消耗91，000升水，你知道吗?

我们必须杜绝对宝贵水资源的浪费。我们应该采取的第一步就是要发展水再利用的方法。该领域的实验已在进行，但是仅是小规模地进行。水资源再利用系统的重要性

对我们而言，与空间站不相上下。
