We live on the earth and depend on natural resources to live. Without nature, human beings can’t survive at all. So living in harmony with nature is one of the most important things for us. But now, many human activities have damaged the environment and hurt nature. It’s time for us to take action to protect nature and live with it in harmony. There are many things we can do to live with nature in harmony. First, we should reduce pollution and live a low carbon life. In our daily life, we can save water and electricity—we can turn off the tap when we wash our hands and turn off the lights when we leave the room. We can go to school or go out on foot or by bike instead of taking cars, which can reduce air pollution. We should also sort the rubbish and recycle paper, plastic and glass to reduce waste. Second, we need to protect all living creatures and their homes. We can plant more trees and flowers in our school or community, because trees can clean the air and protect the soil. We must stop cutting down too many forests, because forests are the homes of many wild animals. We should also care for endangered animals and not hurt them, and never buy things made from rare animals. Every living creature is part of nature, and we should live with them peacefully. Finally, everyone should take responsibility for the environment and be an environmental protector. We can tell our family, friends and classmates the importance of protecting nature and living with it in harmony. We can also join environmental protection activities, such as cleaning the park or the river. When more and more people take part in environmental protection, we can make a big difference to the world. Nature is our home, and protecting it is protecting ourselves. Living with nature in harmony doesn’t need big things, but small actions in our daily life. If everyone can do something for the environment, we will have a greener earth, and human beings can live a happy life with nature forever. Let’s act now and work together to build a beautiful world with nature! 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
