Activity III. Litter is a problem in our cities
The word environment means simply what is around us. Some people live in a town environment; for others, their environment is the countryside. Nowadays people understand how important it is to solve the environment problems that endanger people’s lives. The most serious environmental problems are:
• Pollution in its many forms (water pollution, air pollution, nuclear pollution)
• Noise from cars, buses, planes, etc.
• Destruction of wildlife and countryside beauty
• Shortage of natural resources (metals, different kinds of fuel)
• The growth of population
∙ Litter
Litter is garbage – like food, paper and cans – on the ground or in the street. Where many people live together, litter is a problem. People don’t always out their garbage in the garbage can. It’s easier to drop a paper than to find a garbage can for it. But litter is ugly. It makes the city look dirty, and it spoils the view.
The wind blows paper far away. Often they are difficult to catch. When they blow against a fence, they stay here. This fence is a wall of garbage.
Litter is a health problem, too. Food and garbage bring animals, which sometimes carry disease.
Some people want to control litter. They never throw litter themselves, and sometimes they work together in groups to clean up the city. In most places litter is against the law. The law punishes people who throw garbage on the streets. They usually pay a fine, and occasionally they go to jail.
Two famous sayings in the United States are: “Don’t be a litter bug!” and “Every litter bit hurts!”
