Environmental pollution is one of the largest problems in our today’s world. It can be defined as a contamination of air, water and land from man-made waste. Nowadays there aren’t any cities and hardly any rural areas that remain clean and unpolluted.
There are a lot of different types of pollution among which the most recognized are air and water pollution, soil and radioactive contamination, littering, noise, light and thermal pollution. Unfortunately, most of the problems are the result of human activities. Indeed, the contradictions between man and nature are on a high level.
People cut down forests and thus damage thousands of acres of land. First of all, the soil can be easily blown away and secondly, even if new trees are planted, they can’t bring back the old forests that were a part of a complex ecosystem that cleaned the air and made home for wildlife.
Big industrial cities produce a lot of waste every day. It’s either thrown away or dug up which leads to the releasing of dangerous chemicals into the soil. Very often toxic or poisonous liquid chemicals are poured into the water therefore people’s health is put at risk. However, they are themselves responsible for this.
Water and air pollution are also a serious threat to our environment. The main factors contributing to them are car fumes, oil spills, throwing litter and many others. Polluted air and water affect people’s health to such an extent that millions of them have got no access to safe drinking water.
<span>In conclusion, it must be said that if we want to live in a better and healthier world we should take great care of our mother nature and learn to protect it.</span>
<span>My favourite writer — Mikhail Lermontov. In my opinion, is the greatest poet, prose writer and dramatist of Russian and world literature. No doubt, he is a genius of literature, such as Alexander Pushkin and Alexander Griboyedov.Lermontov lived a short but very interesting and eventful life. Turning to his biography, here you can find a lot of very interesting facts about the life of the poet, as well as the history of the origin of his kind. So, for example, we know that the Lermontov family came from Scotland and was traced back to mythical bard-prophet Thomas Learmonth. In 1613, one of the members of this genus was taken prisoner by the Russians in the capture of the fortress of White, and other so-called Bielsko Germans had entered the service of the Muscovite Tsar. He converted to Orthodoxy and became, under the name of Yuri Andreevich, the founder of a Russian noble family of the Lermontov family. Mikhail knew about his Russian roots, and dedicated the poem "Desire", written in 1831, his Scottish ancestors.</span>
