Kris Griffon. The environment is being destroyed by modern lifestyles. For example, many of our rivers are contaminating with chemicals from factories and farm fields. Also, the air we breathe is smoggy from the exhaust of petroleum-based vehicles. Furthermore, trees are being cut down all over the world to fuel our high demand for wooden houses, paper, and chopsticks. You can even find trash lying on the ground in parks, rivers, streets, and natural areas. Worst of all, various species of plants and animals are dying out. As you can see, our modern lifestyles are quickly ruining the beautiful world around us. We can prevent this from happening by changing our lifestyles immediately.
