Water pollution.
Water recourses is one of the main factor of existing life in our planet.

Global warming.
Global warming is sometimes referred to as the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is the absorption (поглощение)of energy radiated from the Earth's surface by carbon dioxide and other gases in the atmosphere, causing the atmosphere to become warmer. Each time we burn oil or even natural gas, more carbon dioxide is added to the atmosphere. The greenhouse effect is what is causing the temperature on the Earth to rise.
Environmental protection is a universal problem. That is why serious measures for creating a system of ecological security should be taken. Some progress has been already made in this direction. About one hundred fifty nine countries — members of the UNO — have organized environmental protection agencies.
