Salvando La Madre Tierra

Espanish
Pues yo creo debemos cuidar todo lo que nos da la vida contribuyendo nosotros mismo ya que es lo unico que tenemos la tala de arboles, el humo de las fabricas etc... estan dañando nuestra madre tierra y la vida de todos y cada uno de nosotros!
si todos ponemos un poco de nuestra parte la tierra no estaria tan mala cuidemos los animales, la plantas ya que por eso respiramos debos ayudar en que no haya mas talas de arboles, tantas fabricas dañando nuestro oxigeno debemos refleccionar ya que si no hacemos nad todos nos iremos muriendo poco a poco.....!

Because I think we should look after everything that gives us life helping us because it is so unique that we have the felling of trees, smoke from factories and so on ... are hurting our Mother Earth and the life of each and every one of us!
if we all put a little part of our land would not be such a bad look after animals, plants, and that is why we breathe We can help with that no more logging of trees, damaging our factories so we need oxygen reflection because if we do not do all nad us we will die slowly .....!
Saving The Mother Earth

Como el mayor daño a la naturaleza proviene de la quema de combustibles fósiles derivados del petroleo o gas natural, mientras menos de estos productos consuma mejor para la Tierra y sus habitantes, entre ellos Ud. su familia y sus descendientes. La quema de estos combustibles descarga gases de invernadero, como el CO2 y el metano, en la atmósfera, aumentando sus niveles y produciendo el calentamiento global y el cambio climático.
