1970 was "World Conservation Year". The UN wanted everyone to know that the world was in danger. They hoped that government(政府) would act quickly in order to conserve ( ) nature. Here is one example of the problem. At one time there were 1 300 different plants,  trees and flowers in Holland,  but now only 860 remain. The others have , been de¬stroyed by modern man and his technology. We are changing the earth,  the air and the water,  and everything that grows and lives here. We can\'t live without these things. If it continues like this,  we shall destroy ourselves.

A lot of them know that conservation is necessary. Many are helping to save our world. They plant trees,  build bridges across rivers in forests,  and so on. In a small town in the United States a large group of girls cleaned the banks of 11 kilometers of their river.
