It’s you and I who are  to blame for the state of the earth . No question about it . It’s our life-style that is threatening life on Earth , so we must make the changes . The good news is that many of those changes are really quite simple , even enjoyable , but for every careful step we take as individuals , we must press government and industry to take a big step on our benefit . And we must start now . Tomorrow’s too late .

My aim this year is to persuade as many of my friends and colleagues as possible to choose the train , and leave their cars behind too . My gardens have been pesticide(杀虫剂)–free zones for years and I enjoy seeing more wildlife on my doorstep as a result; I’ve tried to reduce my contribution to water pollution too, by using environment-friendly, phosphate(磷)–free washing powder , and by no longer think ing of the toilet as a. suitable waste-disposal(处理) point .

I ran after a young lady through town recently to give her back the piece of paper she had carelessly thrown away. She disappeared into a shop,and when I followed her inside and made my presentation, she was doubly embarrassed--she worked there,and the boss gave her a ticking–off too. I’ve started asking fellow drivers at gas stations why they aren’t using unleaded (无铅的) petrol . These are small things , but we have to start somewhere , and every little does help .
