4. Poverty. Poor farmers use the same land over and over. The land needs a rest so it will be better next year.

However, the farmers must have food this year. Poor people cut down trees for fire wood. In some areas, when the

trees are gone, the land become desert. However, people need wood to cook their food now. Poor people cannot save

the environment for the future.

We now have the information and the ability to solve these huge problems. However, this is not a problem for

one country or one area of the world. It is a problem for all humans. The people and the nations of the world must

work together to conserve the world’s resources. No one controls the future, but we can help make it.
