Pollution will kill us in 10 years from now

How long do you think you have left to live? 30 years? 50 years? If we don't reduce our pollution dramaticly, scientists expect us all to be dead in 10 years from now.

We all know that we're buisy destroying the Earth. Cars kill over a million animals each day, pollution is the cause of 80% of all astma patients and water already needs to be cleaned before we can drink it. We all know how come, and nobody does anything about it.

This has to change dramaticly, otherwise scientists expect that this planet will in 10 years from now no longer contain any form of life anymore. In other words: if we don't reduce our pollution dramaticly, we will all be dead in 10 years from now.

One of the biggest form of pollution comes from cars. This is very easy to reduce: Leave your car home. Instead, go by bike or public transport. Healthier, and better for the environment! If you really need a car, search for a car that runs on electricity. Those aren't that expensive (definately not compared to the price you will otherwise have to pay in 10 years from now), they can do the same as other cars, but they don't pollute!

Instead of normal batteries, use rechargable batteries. Cheaper, and better for the environment. Definately if you buy a battery recharger that works on solar system. Those cost the same as other battery rechargers but they use the sun to recharge the battery instead of your power socket.

Use as less plastic as possible. Instead of using plastic bags, use paper bags or use your own bag. Don't throw paper in the garbage can, but throw it in the paper recycling container instead. This way, you reduce the amount of garbage.
