We are thinking about how the pollution affects our life? We need know that the pollution is one of the most dangerous problems that Bucaramanga has in this moment, which got in risk life, body and health of the citizens in special the adolescent. All of this, is a consequence of the least care of the environment and the nature.
The pollution is a problem caused because the people do not have good habits like recycling, take care about the natural resources, etc. The majority of people that do not have these habits are adolescents because we do not take into account the damage that we are doing to Bucaramanga and how this affects our daily life.
For example, we teenagers always try to be updated and always look at everything that comes out like cell phones, we always want the new phone, but when we have it. We forget the previous one and we discard it, without taking into account how harmful it is waste, especially electronics for the environment since these are some of the most harmful waste.
We, adolescents are not able to make wise decision that favor environment since many of them are losing the culture of recycling, of reusing and taking care of the environment, making the problem of contamination even bigger and more dangerous. For example, a boy has a plastic bottle and wants to throw it away, but when he finds a trash can with its respective places to throw away the different types of waste and without taking into account anywhere making the bottle con not be recycled and although they do not create an action as it can bring serious consequences for the environment.
Many adolescents believe that nothing happens if they do not recycle and if they do not take care of the environment but pollution is a current problem that puts at risk the health of many citizens of Bucaramanga including them and all that for not having good care habits and not taking into account environment, for this reason, here in Bucaramanga, has been detected many cases of respiratory diseases caused by air pollution, but not only air is affected also environment where we live and degradation of our nature.
In conclusion, I want to invite all the adolescents to learn to care for the environment and have good habits that contribute to the care and improvement of our planet in order to reduce pollution in our city and reduce the number of diseases caused by them. The environment in not something infinite and that’s why we must take care of it.
