Although environmental problems have existed for centuries, some people still care little about our environment. Problems like ice melting, electronic waste are lighting up news programs and becoming part of an ongoing dialogue about the environment.
As a teenager, what do you think all the problems mean for your future and for the future of the planet? For our October 2016 writing contest, we want you to really consider what you think about environmental problems.
Use these questions to help focus your essay (文章)
■What environmental problem do you think should cause the greatest alarm and action?
■Do you think that you have a personal responsibility to help solve environmental problems or do you feel helpless against the struggle?

Don't try to answer all these questions. Use one of them to make a personal essay.
