The word “Ecology” comes from the Greek language and means “the study of the the place we live in”. So, there is no person on Earth who is not affected by ecological problems. For example, air polluted by plants will travel for a long distance with wind, the heavy particles will get into rivers and seas.

Pollution of the sea is the most dangerous. The regions that are most loaded with sea traffic are very dirty. For example, the Baltic sea is the dirtiest zone on the planet. The radioactive leak at Fukushima, Japan has led to the death of many fishes and other aquatic beings.

The cutout of forests, contamination of the seas and intense burning of coal has shifted the balance of the oxygen, ozone and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, making the ozone “shield” of the planet thinner. It results in global climate changes. Debates are still being held whether the “Global warming” is real, but every year there comes another evidence of the warming - the ice mounts melt at the poles, raising the global sea level.

You, of course, may say that you can’t affect the production of plants and factories much. But there is also the ecology of your home and your workplace. You shouldn’t pour dangerous chemicals to the ground - it will “die”, become infertile. Do not throw away batteries - send them to the recycling center. There are often special containers for batteries in major malls. Generally, do not waste resources - like take a shower, not a bath, turn down the water when you brush your teeth. Turn off electric devices that you do not use. Take care of the health of your environment.

Today our planet Earth is facing an important problem - the global warming. It occurs because of emissions of toxic gas and increasing greenhouse effect.
Polluting gases are exhausted by factories, cars and other machines. These gases pile up in the atmosphere and don't let the light reflected from Earth's surface get out of atmosphere, which actually causes the warming itself. Because of it, glaciers melt rapidly, the ocean level rises and that poses a flood threat to all islands and seaside countries. It also means an dramatic increase in number of icebergs in oceans, which basically means a threat to sea travellers. Which in its turn poses a threat to economies of a lot of different countries, since most goods are exported and imported by water trade.

Warming is also dangerous for nature since many species of plants and animals are used to live under low-temperature conditions. And if temperature goes up, then certain plants, which are actually food for animals, will die. And that in its turn will make animals starve, and then eventually die as well. And so will die animals, whose food was primarily the previously mentioned animals, and so on and so forth.

I want to live in a country with strong economy, rich flora and fauna and not-overly-hot climate!

Let us save our planet together!

Let us say 'NO' to atmosphere pollution!

Let us switch to alternative sources of energy!

Let's revive our forests!

All the rules, POZhALUYSTAStoit say that in the US today there are at least 200 uninhabited citiesso-called ghost towns. Colorado and California, Arizona and Montana, New Mexico and Nevada, Idaho and Utah tourists can show up to two dozen such sites. Their eerie appearance attracted mystics and filmmakers, as well as groups of tourists. The famous movie "Silent Hill" created in the image of abandoned cities in America. The city where there is a church and a school, and the telegraph station, shops and houses, but no inhabitants ... Each of ghost towns have their own tragic story.
"Oh My God!" - Exclaim tourists during excursions through the deserted streets. once, life in these cities was in full swing, and now only emptiness and silence. Most often, ghost towns are located in the United States of its central part, away from the major routes, gas stations. Sometimes, the cause is the depletion of natural resources, or any natural disasters, but more often they disappear on ordinary stupidity of the people themselves.
For example, the town of Cordes in Arizona was founded in 1883. After 12 years, lived there more than 400 people, and in 1926 it was already a real center, with beer bars, churches and shops. And in 1955, the city closed coal mines and local residents began to leave him. In the city of Centralia burned coal mines that can not be put out more than 40 years.
US ghost towns
Another story from the ghost town of Mokelumne Hill, located in California. It arose spontaneously, as a result of the gold rush, and in 1848 it has a population of 12 thousand people. It was one of the most violent cities, during its history have been killed and more than 39 sheriffs thousand inhabitants.
The fate of the doomed ghost towns - it is only slowly disintegrate and disappear someday. Although there are cases when these cities are national monuments and heritage of the country
For each of the American ghost towns can talk endlessly. And every ghost town keeps a lot of secrets that have yet to unravel ...
