• Pollution problems are becoming more and more serious. One of them is called “white pollution” caused by plastic, such as shopping bags, boxes and cups. In China about three billion plastic shopping bags are used every day, which causes a great waste of resources and heavy environmental pollution.

• Luckily, the government has stopped us from using free plastic bags, telling all stores and supermarkets not to provide customers with free plastic bags since June 1, 2008. From then on, people have been suggested to use cloth bags and shopping baskets instead of plastic bags in order to protect our environment. Now more and more people have realized the importance of using the cloth bags and the shopping baskets. For one thing it can protect our environment, for another it can also make our country cleaner and more beautiful. Yet we have much more things to do to solve the problem of "white pollution"!

Air Pollution Air pollution is more and more serious in our country.

Factories and cars produces terrible gas. The bad air make people feel uncomfortable. Many people have breathing problems and even lung cancer because of the air pollution.

Luckily, our government has taken some measures to reduce air pollution. For example, it has made laws to stop the factories pouring waste air. As students, we should do something to reduce air pollution, too. We should walk or ride a bike instead of taking a bus or a car. And we should plant more trees, too.

I believe if we try our best to protect the environment, our planet will be a better place to live in.
