We need energy to live and work. Our major source of energy is oil. Oil is one kind of fossil fuels. The amount of fossil fuels in the world is limited. Therefore, we must save it, and at the same time we must find new sources of energy. Geothermal heat and nuclear power are alternative sources of energy. They can give us electricity. Other alternative sources are the sun, the wave, and the water. These sources are not only unlimited and available but also clean and safe to the environment. People should develop and use them more and more in the future.                                                                                                    

1. What do we need energy for?                                                                                                                                                 →                                                                                                                                                                       

2. What is our major source of energy?                                                                                              →                                                                                                                             

3. Why must we save fossil fuels?                                                                                                 →                                                                                                                                                    4. What are the advantages of the other alternative sources of energy?                                       →                                                                                                                                   5. Should people develop and use the alternative sources of energy more and more in the future?

The environment is the most important thing for our life. The environment is the air we breathe, the water we drink and is everything we need for our life. This pollution affects the health of living things.

But only we can change it and solve it. First, we can use recycled paper to help save trees. Second try to avoid buying plastic. To protect the environment we also have to save energy.

Finally, we now know that environment is the most important thing for life. Everyday we invent and find more and more way to protect the environment. I hope that in the future the earth will be cleaner.
