上墅小学  应慧焱      

Dear teachers and friends. I’m very glad to stand here to share my speech with you. Today I’m going to talk about Love and Take care of Nature.

Living in this "new age", seeing my dear ones suffering from respiratory diseases from time to time, finding the beautiful colors of green and blue are being replaced by that of gray and pale, and realizing 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. 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. But where is the blue sky? Where are the white clouds? Where are the green hills? Where is the clean water?  Where … They are all gone.

Why?!

When the country becomes richer and richer, the environment becomes worse and worse. To make the country richer and powerful, people cut down the trees to make modern buildings. Many factories pour the waste water into rivers.

We have destroyed so much. If we don’t stop pollution, our human beings will be the next victim.

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.

How I wish I could see the blue sky, the white clouds, the green hills and the clean water again. Don’t you?

I think if we take good care of our earth today, it will be more beautiful tomorrow.

Come on! My friends! We need action! Love and Take good care  of the Nature.
