Sample
Dear sir or madam,
The environmental pollution is worse and worse today. We can’t afford to wait any longer to take action.
Water is polluted in some cities and countryside; we have no clean water to drink. Many trees are cutting down, some animals are getting less and less. Some factories are producing dirty air into the sky, the population is increasing faster and faster, resources are getting less and less etc. Not only does it affect our lives and health,but it also has a great effect in the future. People’s health has been greatly affected by air, noise and water pollution. Many people died of diseases.
In order to live a better life, we need protect our world. We shouldn’t throw away rubbish everywhere. We want to recycle, reduce，reuse things. Don’t waste things, this saves money and reduces pollution. Use things for as long as possible. We don’t use plastic bags. We must plant more trees and stop people cutting them. We hope our world will become more and more beautiful.
Yours,
Jim
