In order to solve the pollution problems that began from the mid-20th century, a number of environmental protection organizations have formed. However, the most important pollution fighter is perhaps each individual person. If everyone makes the effort, pollution can be greatly reduced,
In a way, some pollution can be controlled in daily life. For example, solid wastes are a major cause of land pollution, but many wastes, such as empty cans, glass bottles, old car tires and newspapers, can be recycled. Some places pay people to bring in used goods for recycling. Moreover, one major factor in air pollution is that many people use cars needlessly. So public transportation, bicycles, and walking are all good choices to prevent pollution.
