Many scientists all over the world are concerned about the environmental issues. They include increasing emissions of carbon dioxide, cutting down trees, pollution of water by plastic waste and pollution of soil by chemical fertilizers.

We all know that environment is very important, but what do we do to protect it?

After that you may choose a tree to adopt. When you adopt a tree it means that this tree will not be cut down or harmed. So, you buy the certificate of adoption and protect the tree.
