Short Speech on Environmental Pollution in English

Good morning to Principal, our honourable chief guest, teachers, and my dear friends.

Today, I am going to speak on one of our greatest environmental concerns, environmental pollution.

As we all know, environmental pollution is the introduction of different harmful pollutants into the environment that makes the environment unhealthy to live in.

Who is responsible for this? Sadly, it is us.

We are responsible for this environmental pollution as we are polluting our environment through the means of water, air, and land.

We are polluting the water by disposing of our garbage into it. We throw waste products into the water and then recycle the water to use it in daily life.

We are polluting the air too smoke emitting vehicles. We are using firecrackers endlessly during festivals celebrations and polluting the air we breathe.

We are cutting the trees too. They are the source of our oxygen and we are cutting them to build roads and houses.

Environmental pollution is an important concern for the world. Our country is also facing this problem. There is a high level of air pollution in cities like Delhi, Punjab, Haryana, Kolkata, etc. This is also giving rise to various health diseases including breathing problems such as asthma, bronchitis, etc.

All irresponsible human activities need to be controlled. Also, it is the right time to take action before itโ€™s too late.

We can help protect our environment in many ways. Plastic ban and use of odd and even number cars on certain days is a good initiative by the government.

There are more things which we can do at the individual level too. We can plant more and more trees. We can do carpooling to control air pollution. We can promote the use of recycling products.

The future of our environment is in our hands only. I would request you all to take the pledge to adopt positive initiatives to protect our environment.

Thank you all for lending me your ears.
