PUBLIC SPEAKING

Assalamualaikum and a very good morning to the honourable judges, teachers,

and my fellow friend. I am standing here to deliver my words about ‘Pollution’.
Please lend me your ears friends.

As we know, pollution is one of the biggest environmental problems but still many
people do not take pollution problem seriously as they should be. Environmental
pollution comes in various forms, such as: air pollution and water pollution. Many
people still think that we can dump our garbage all over the planet without any
consequences which is not true.

Since the start of industrial revolution we have been continuously heavily

polluting our planet, caring only for economic development, and not caring at all
for the health of environment we live in. Such lack of ecological conscience has
caused severe pollution across the whole planet. Levels of air, sea, and water
pollution are extremely high, and are constantly growing because industry isn’t
letting go.

The main sources of pollution are definitely industry and vehicles. Heavy
industries based on fossil fuels are especially dangerous for our environment. If
we take a look at China and India for instance we can see that rapid economic
development actually has rather high environmental price. Heavy pollution not
only makes our environment ugly but is also the source of many respiratory and
waterborne diseases across the south-east Asia that is taking many human lives
year after year.

As Homo sapiens, we have the responsibility to prevent the pollution.

Everyone is a stakeholder as we are all inhabitants of this one and only mother
earth. Each person has something to contribute to advance effective pollution
prevention awareness initiatives. Environmental protection is caring for
ourselves, loving our children and ensuring a sustainable future for generations
to come.

You and I should therefore accept personal responsibility for the success of the
environmental protection programs of our respective community by cooperating
and actively participating in making the atmosphere pollution free. Everyone can
help by self education and by adopting good and healthy practices. It is also
important that we help raise awareness about the significance of environmental
issues, their dire consequences and what can be done.

Consequently, let us think about this phrase “If there are no pollutants, there will
be no pollution”

With that, I thank you
