In our daily life, we often hear the word "protect the environment". But what does it really mean? As a student in Grade Four, I have learned a lot about how to protect the earth.

First, we should not throw litter everywhere. When I go out with my family, I always carry a small bag to put the trash. It is easy to do, but it can make a big difference. If everyone does this, the streets will be cleaner and the air will be fresher.

Second, we should save water and electricity. For example, when I brush my teeth, I turn off the tap. When I leave a room, I turn off the light. These small actions can help save energy and protect the planet.

Third, planting trees is also important. Trees can absorb carbon dioxide and give us fresh air. My school has a garden where we plant many trees every year. I feel proud when I see them grow taller and healthier.

Finally, I think we should tell others about protecting the environment. We can share what we learn with our friends and families. Everyone can do something, no matter how small it is.

In conclusion, protecting the environment is not difficult. It starts with small steps. As a young student, I will try my best to keep our world clean and beautiful. Let's work together for a better future!
