Honorable judges, ladies and gentlemen.

Today，we are gathering here to discuss a very hot issue. How to protect environment from beginning of me.

I love nature . I love the blue sky, clear water and green trees, lovely animals and so on.            It is no doubt that the nature is important to every human being. No nature, no life. Because of the supplies of the nature, we have lived  happily  for 

a long time. And we started to gain every thing available from the nature.  And this lasted so long a time. Today, people have discovered that the

nature around is getting worse and worse. 

 In this "new age" modern science and technology are developing at full speed. But I see my dear ones suffering from respiratory diseases from time to time and find the beautiful colors of green and blue are being replaced by that of gray and pale. I realize that our mother planet is getting more and more unhealthy. I can't help trying to offer my idea and my trivial efforts to look for the answer of the question-how to get on well with the nature.

  Some people may proudly say: we are the masters of nature. It is true that the idea of "man can conquer nature" has dominated people's mind for years, and it is true, man has kept acting like a master and doing whatever things he wants for thousands of years. However, as the result of this kind of "leadership" , now the "master" seems to be confronted with problems that are far beyond his control. Facts are really very ample. The green house effect leaves islands and cities along the coast, such as this oriental pearl-Shanghai, in danger of the disaster of being drowned; the diseases, caused by pollution, are increasing at an incredible speed... Seeing all these facts, can we still ignore the counterattack of nature? We are not the masters of nature. Facing all the disasters made by ourselves, we, mankind as a whole should realize that we are just a normal member of the big family of nature. Any mistreatment towards nature will meet only with the revenge from her.

 As a student. I ask everyone to do something to protect the environment where we live. We will be healthier and happier.
 Thank you.
