I don't want to delay you with empty words. What would be the use of saying that we are going to do something that we don't do afterwards? However, one salvation: The increase in greenhouse gas emissions is causing unfavorable climate change on the planet. Environmental pollution causes negative impacts on ecosystems and various diseases, alterations and the reduction of life expectancy in millions of people around the world. Polluting agents are very diverse and are causing more and more health problems, even before birth. The destruction of forests has decreased in recent years globally, but continues to increase in many countries, especially in South America and Africa. Human activities cause serious phenomena of soil degradation. Among them erosion, a problem that is accelerating in all continents and each year causes a loss of between 5 and 7 million hectares of land for cultivation. The increasingly high consumption of energy and the continued use of fossil fuels generate various environmental impacts and are worrying for human development in the coming decades. Access to water in minimum potability conditions and its scarcity are increasingly alarming. Some scientists have been warning for years about species in danger of extinction and the successive loss of biodiversity, often caused by the invasion and illegal trafficking of animals. In addition, the global generation of garbage in cities will be double that of today in 2025 and it is estimated that it will more than triple by 2100.

This is indicated by a study in the journal Nature, which states that it is the fastest produced environmental pollutant. If waste is not properly treated in time, especially plastic, it can cause irreparable damage to the environment and to human beings. Recycling, in addition to mitigating this problem, avoids the use of new raw materials and thus reduces the environmental impact. The 4th graders of the schools attached to the Green Schools Program know it, they have been separating the plastic containers (PET) and taking them to the Green Points located in squares and parks of the City; and now it will make you participate in a Contest called “Sumá Verde” where you can win great prizes. Registration opens from September 1 and from 7 can carry out the materials to recycle. The contest is part of the Green City concept that we want: to generate awareness and education in waste separation and responsible consumption. With the aim of encouraging the commitment of young people to care for the environment. And here's the salvation: Any of the boys who will participate in the contest could have written this letter for the environment, now the big ones need to do it. Knowing the environmental threats that concern us can sometimes be the first step to act.
