As time goes by， humans are making the earth sick. People cut down too much trees① and leave more and more rubbish here and there. Factories let out their waste without doing anything to it. All this has caused many serious problems. More and more good farmland has turned into desert， the rivers and lakes have polluted② and the water in them is dirty and poisonous. The air is less clean， even the temperature of the earth is higher than before. The earth is sick now. What should we do to save her？

First， we should stop people from pouring waste directly into the air or rivers.

Second， planting more trees and grass is a good idea. It can stop the wind from blowing the earth away. Whats more， forests can make the air clean and fresh.

We have only one earth. We should do useful something③ to protect it. It is our home. Protecting the earth is our duty.
