The bad effects of human beings on the Earth are being more and more serious in the last century. Either extraordinary increasing of population or extremely use of sources damages to the Earth. If the Earth could renew itself, there would not be such a big problem to worry about the future of the Earth. In fact there are many kinds of energies that are described as renewable such as wind energy, geothermal energy, the energy of sunlight; but the usage of these energies is more expensive. As people think they have to care about money too much in this century, the usage of expensive sources do not make sense for them. On the other hand; although the usage of the energies such as oil, coal, wood or nuclear are cheaper, these are really serious pollutants. Earth could handle these pollutants, but not anymore. The researches which were conducted (give reference from the movie) shows that human begins unbalance the ecology very much. Related to air pollution, one of the most dangerous issues for Earth, global warming is concerned nowadays. Greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide are the main reasons of air pollution. As it is known, some amount of sunlight energy is absorbed by atmosphere to keep the temperature of Earth balanced. Greenhouse gases satisfy this keeping. However; the extraordinary amount of these gases in atmosphere increases the amount of absorbed energy and average of temperature of Earth. It is like a chain. The future of Earth scares many people. In fact the unbalanced natural events were seen before, in the history of Earth and some scientists claim there is no need to aggravate these researches. Also the people who earn money by damaging environment somehow do not want to pay attention to the danger. Especially factory owners are the responsible for polluting environment and many people do not, but all humanity is affected by pollution at the same level. This is inequality. These factory owners can damage theirselves however they want, but if they damage us, it is against human rights. Human beings started to use environment unconsciously for their economic welfare, by forcing the limits of use some serious damages will be unrecoverable with money.

Environment in a collapse especially in the last century, the circumstances are getting worse and precautions are needed immediately. Earth is giving alarm nowadays. There are dozens of researches, which were conducted to show how serious the problem is. Air, land, water pollutions are increasing day by day. The average temperature of Earth is increasing; huge ice masses are melting faster. Ice reflects sunlight as a mirror and water absorbs the sunlight, therefore if ices in the north and south poles the amount of absorbed energy will increase day by day. People will not capable of stopping global warming. The temperature records were seen year by year. Seeing the records every year is not a good thing. Deserts on the Earth are getting bigger and bigger. These are kind of alarms and the predictions about future are not good. There are scientific ways to look the big environmental events of the history of Earth. It is known that Earth saw ice ages before and this is an unbalanced period that natural circle was broken; there were not that kind of human effect in these years. Some scientists point out that Earth handled ice ages, therefore; Earth's situation is not that bad right now. In some time periods Earth encounter with natural imbalances and these are not human based. However; this researches show that the carbon dioxide level has never been like that before. This generation took a good environment from their parents and owes to give a good environment to their children. Humanity has power to stop global warming and pollution now; if something is not done it will be too late to save the Earth.

Although it makes sense to use ecology to get economical welfare; if the balance of nature breaks because of extraordinary usage of ecology, the back pay will be worse than we can imagine. The number of people who care and embrace the nature is really few. In fact the circumstances of life force us to care about money more than everything. People who damage environment for money are selfish, because when he/she damages environment everybody will be damaged but he/she will be only who is paid. Everybody loses something, but only he/she gains, this is inequality. Even it is against human rights. Loggers, mining workers of factory owners say that use of ecology stops there will be many unemployed people. The prices of wooden or metal stuff will increase too much. If ecology is not used, then economic crises will occur. However, it is accepted that we need these wooden or metal stuff and these factories. Therefore, closing the factories or stop to using cars are not solutions. The most important issue is not to aggravate the usage of environment. People must let Earth to renew itself. It can be seen as using capital. If capital is spent directly, it finishes at the end. If the capital deposits to the bank and the interest is spent, it does not finish. After some time, the amount of interests catches the capital and the profit is more than capital. Earth is our capital, if its sources are not used too much, it gives us more. In addition to this; some elements of the nature can not be brought back with money. Even if paying billions of dollars does not bring the species which are extinct because of human effect on nature. Alluvial soil is going through seas because of deforestation and alluvial soil the most efficient soil where plants grow up. For instance, the donations which are collected by TEMA can not bring this soil back. It is only used to save the left forests. Making a new forest is really expensive and it requires long time. Moreover, because of global warming seasons are changing. Some parts of Earth try to handle with drought and some parts try to handle with floats and hurricanes. Damage is getting bigger and bigger day by day. If the circumstances in long term are understood, it will be seen that damaging ecology also damages economy and protecting ecology also protects economy.

To sum up, people have a tendency to be rich in short way and do not care whatever it costs. People have the power to make the Earth a palace or a slum house. Related to life situations, humans give priority to money. Earth is losing blood. There are unbalanced natural events all over the world. There is no other home except Earth; therefore, we are responsible to protect our home. If we sell or break everything in our home, it will not be such a home anymore. Humanity must be seen as a family and family members do not hurt each other for personal economic welfares. It is obvious that, if we protect Earth, not use the sources that much and do not pollute extraordinary, Earth could give more sources to humanity. It can be seen as a mutalist life. Our children need Earth and we are responsible for giving them what they deserve. As it is difficult to show the danger and convince all the people to protect environment, laws must support the changing. People who do not care about environment give much importance to money and the financial punishments will be a good precaution to protect the Earth. Governments should support environmental organizations such as Greenpeace. In addition, politicians should think more emotional and must not make secret deals with factory owners for personal economic welfare. Environmental politicians must be together to force USA and Australia to sign Kyoto, which is a kind of protection contract of environment. Politicians are example to society. Hybrid cars, public transportation vehicles, new technological invents which save water or electricity, renewable sources; such as wind, wave, sunlight should be used by politicians and they should be used commonly by all humanity. On the other hand, if politicians, who are the most related people with country, think personal welfare, other people will go on the same way and Earth will be unlivable place at the end. Diseases, water shortage, floats, pollutions, hurricanes and hot weather will affect either humanity directly or agriculture and farming. The money which is lost because of these will be more than we get by using the Earth. The beauty of our wonderful Earth will be disappeared and our apologies or money will not bring the awesome nature which we only see by photos.

Greetings!

Wow, your professors are keeping you very busy with writing assignments! You've been doing a lot of hard work, and you make some very good points. Here are some editing suggestions (they're not in bold this time):

The bad effects human beings have on the Earth are becoming more and more serious over the last century. Either extraordinary increases in the population or extreme overuse of resources can be damaging to the Earth.

Related to air pollution, one of the most dangerous issues for Earth is global warming, a big concern nowadays.

Although it makes sense to use ecology to get economical welfare, if the balance of nature breaks because of extraordinary usage of ecology, the payback will be worse than we can imagine. - I'm not sure I follow your argument here. I think perhaps you mean "resources" rather than "ecology."

It can be seen as a mutalist life. - "mutalist" is not a word; I believe you want to say "It can be seen as a mutually beneficial life."

Hybrid cars, public transportation vehicles, new technological inventions which save water or electricity, renewable sources such as wind, water, and sunlight should be used by politicians and they should be used commonly by all humanity.

Keep up the good work!

Thanks,
