The environment is irreplaceable. All life forms on earth coexist in delicate balance. Although some habitats are naturally more abundant than others, we are degrading the environment by exploiting and polluting it, affecting the entire world irrespective of borders. For everyone’s sake, let’s stop polluting the environment. How foolish to destroy our planet – which has to sustain present and future generations. Together, let’s protect and safeguard the earth.
