The way we live today and the technology we use have harmed our environment. Resources like coal and oil are running out quickly, and once they’re gone, we’ll have to rely on other ways to get energy. That’s why it’s important for us to take care of our natural resources. There are many ways to do this. The main idea is to use these resources wisely and not waste them. Just be mindful of how you use them.
For example, sometimes walking or biking instead of driving can save fuel. Taking public transportation, like buses and trains, can also save oil. And using less water when you bathe or clean helps save water too.
