READING

Read the passage and choose the correct answer to each question.

Taking care of the environment is essential for the future of our planet. By reducing waste, recycling, and using renewable energy, we can all contribute to protecting nature. Many people choose to recycle plastic, paper, and glass to reduce the amount of waste that ends up in landfills. Others participate in community clean. up events or plant trees to help improve air quality and restore natural habitats.

One way to protect the environment is to reduce our energy consumption. Turning off lights when they are not needed, using energy-efficient appliances, and relying on solar or wind energy are all important actions. These efforts not only reduce pollution but also help to slow down climate change.

In addition to individual actions, large companies and governments also play a crucial role. They can implement policies to reduce emissions and limit the use of harmful materials. Some businesses now offer eco- friendly products, and governments can encourage citizens to adopt greener practices through education and incentives. Working together, both individuals and organizations can make a significant impact on the health of our planet.
