Besidesconditions for crops growth steadily become worse due to numerous kinds ofenvironmental pollution. And worst of all, today’s man consistentlycontributes to his own deadly crisis. We have got too many cars, too many factories, too much wastes and carbon dioxide, toolittle water and food deficiency – all that can be easily tracedto abundant human population. That is why many western scientists say thatour world is going through an ecological crisis which will meanthe gradual destruction of the human race. Our scientists are notthat pessimistic, although they do think that man’s increasedinfluence on the planet is posing a growing threat tothe biosphere. It is not too late to forestall what could bedrastic and irreversible changes in the environment and ensurethat the world will be a healthy place for the present and futuregenerations to live in.
