According to me, protecting our environment means protecting our life. Therefore, we should take some immediate and effective measures. First, we should plant more trees and protect the forest from deforestation. We should hold the planting-tree contest and punish people who damage the forest heavily. Second, it is important to improve people's awareness of the necessity of protecting the environment. This means we should show people the horrible drawbacks if the environment is destroyed and the advantages of protecting the environment. To point out these, we can hold a number of the campaign about the environment. Furthermore, more and more speeches about the environment should be made by the government and sociologists. Third, we should save energy by using it effectively and intelligently. We should use energy-saving appliances. Moreover, we ought not to use electric appliances when it is not really necessary. In conclusion, we should follow these measures to save our environment.
