Question

This is a story from a meeting held by some people and two things in nature. We call it the Four?Sided Talk. Let's “listen to” everyone carefully and find out what they think.

People: We have lived on the earth since ancient times. The earth is our home. Now we regret what we have done to our home！The earth belongs to all of us. From now on,we should not only make full use of the resources(资源)on the earth,but also beautify and protect the earth. Let's try our best!

An old tree: I am thousands of years old,but I have fewer and fewer friends. I'm afraid that soon I will be cut. People cut down many trees to make paper and chopsticks. They destroy the forests and the natural environment. Now there are no trees to make air and to protect people from floods. Mother nature is making many disasters to teach people a lesson.

The river: What the old tree said is right. I not only make the earth more beautiful,but also provide the clean water for people and animals to drink. Now I'm sad because people put waste and garbage into us,which kills many animals and plants that drink our water. People drink this kind of water and get sick too.

The United Nations: We only know a little bit about the environmental problems. Hearing what all of you said,we have made up our minds to protect the earth and love the earth. We have also made the June 5th World Environment Day.
