I%26#039;d suggest you think a little about what issues are especially important to you, whether the rainforest or your local neighborhood, whales, wolves, or creepy crawlies, and look for an organization that works for the same cause. There is almost certain to be one, and it%26#039;s website should offer volunteer opportunities, action alerts, donation information, and more.
If you%26#039;re interested in what you can do around your house and in your life, there are some pretty good answers here:

Most electricity we get in our houses or in schools comes from electricity generating stations which use non-enviromentally friendly way. Most comes from the burning of Fossils fuels which emits pollutants and CO2, which in a massive scale can contribute to global warming. So if everybody cut down on electricity it would cut down on the emission of these pollutants.
However if the electricity supply you use is environmentally friendly such a hydroelecticity or wind or solar, then you don%26#039;t need to worry about your electricity causing CO2 emissions.
One way of protecting the environment is by cutting down on the use of detergents in your home. Especialy if your sewage isn%26#039;t treated. Like if you live in the country side and your sewage is treated by your septic tank. When you use lots of strong detergents such a toilet cleaner this is washed into your septic tank, not only is it bad for you septic tank it can be releaced into the environment and can bevery bad for the environment.
If you have a garden, especialy if you live in a town, you should try to leave a small area of you garden for the wild life. Maybe a bush with some long grass for insects and birds to live in.
There are many pollutants we all add to the environment, such as deodarants and cars we should try and cut down on the use of these to try to lessen our impact on the environment.
The earth in general is a different story. The earth has been through a lot worse than its going through now. Huge earthquake, impacts, even collided with moon around 5 billion years ago and it survived that. The earth has seen the extinction of the dinosaurs and many other extinctions befor that, huge volcanoes and earthquakes and other global catastrophes, The earths temperature has been rising and falling by huge amounts since its beginning 4.5billion years ago. Unless we let off a huge bomb which destroys the whole earth and mankind there is very little we could do to hugely affect the earth as a whole.
But we should still try to protect our environment and the other life we share this planet with. 0% 0 Votes
