Climate(气候)change will not only increase the world’s average(平均)temperature, and it will also increase the heatwaves(热浪)that are harming people and wildlife even now. Summertime is quickly becoming a dangerous season for all life on the earth.

Heatwaves have already produced attractive deaths in animals. Heatstroke (中暑)from such e-vents is also a present danger for people, especially the old.

Heatwaves can also have more effects on the bodies of animals. If wild animals are experiencing terribly high temperatures, although you won’t see death, you might see changes in their bodies that show they’re getting close to death. By studying responses like these, scientists could get a nearly warning sign before heatwaves start to produce more serious results. Some research deals with these kinds of responses to make predictions about how climate change will have an influence on humans, animals and ecosystems. As for when this kind of events will happen and just how terrible they’ll be, predictions are different. We can’t say it’s going to happen next year. But if we continue giving off CO₂ like this, by the end of this century, we’re going to see heatwaves that will be more powerful than those that have killed large numbers of people and wildlife.

As carbon dioxide(CO₂) and other greenhouse gases(气体)keep in heat and raise the earth’s average temperature, the heatwaves will come more often.

Climate change is having a great influence on the earth. Scientists are now calling for action to deal with the bad influence of heatwaves on the planet.

June 5 is World Environment Day. Nowadays more and more people are trying different kinds of ways to face environmental problems around the world. What are people doing to protect our home—the earth?

Most people are changing their shopping habits. On the one hand, secondhand clothes may be a smart choice. People are willing to buy the secondhand ones to wear in special situations because they only wear them once or twice. On the other hand, there are some companies for renting (租) clothes and renting clothes is cheaper than buying them. So people are able to save money and protect the environment.

Several large companies have begun developing paper bottles to take the place of glass and plastic ones because there are lots of customers worrying about the environment. They think paper bottles have many advantages. The most important is that paper bottles are easy to recycle and weigh less than glass or plastic ones as well.

A zero-waste life is that people hardly create any rubbish. A zero-waste theme store provides a number of everyday, practical and pleasant zero-waste products. The store helps people start on a one-stop, zero-waste life journey. A zero-waste life follows the 6R principle (原则) —Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Repair, Recycle and Rot.

All in all, the earth is our home and it’s our duty to protect it.
