We Should Keep Environment Clean
Maintaining a clean environment is crucial for the well-being of all living beings. A clean environment ensures good
health, supports biodiversity, and promotes a sustainable future. Unfortunately, many people neglect this responsibility,
causing severe environmental problems.
Firstly, a clean environment directly impacts our health. Polluted air, water, and soil lead to various illnesses, such as
respiratory problems and waterborne diseases. By keeping the environment clean, we can minimize these health risks
and enjoy a better quality of life.
Secondly, preserving the environment supports biodiversity. Many animals and plants rely on clean habitats to survive.
Pollution and deforestation destroy these habitats, leading to the extinction of various species. A clean environment helps
maintain ecological balance and ensures the survival of diverse organisms.
Lastly, maintaining cleanliness contributes to sustainability. Proper waste management, recycling, and reducing pollution
are key actions to protect our planet for future generations. If we do not act responsibly, we risk depleting natural
resources and harming the Earth irreparably.

Smoking in Public Area is Not Polite
Smoking in public areas has long been a controversial issue. While some argue that it is a personal choice, it is undeniable
that smoking in public is impolite and harmful to others. Public areas should be spaces where everyone feels safe and
comfortable, free from second hand smoke.
Firstly, smoking in public exposes others to second hand smoke, which is harmful to health. Non-smokers, including
children and the elderly, can suffer from respiratory problems due to exposure. It is unfair to impose this risk on people
who choose not to smoke.
Secondly, smoking in public is disruptive. The smell of smoke is unpleasant for many people, especially in confined
spaces such as public transportation or restaurants. This disruption often causes discomfort and irritation to others.
Lastly, smoking in public areas sets a bad example, particularly for children. Seeing adults smoke in public normalizes
the behaviour , potentially encouraging younger generations to pick up the habit. This can perpetuate a harmful cycle of
addiction and health problems.
In conclusion, smoking in public areas is not only impolite but also harmful and disruptive. To create a healthier and
more considerate environment, people should avoid smoking in public and respect the rights of non-smokers.

Why Cleanliness is Important
Cleanliness is an essential aspect of our lives that should never be ignored. It affects our health, our surroundings, and
even our mental well-being. Despite its importance, many people underestimate the value of cleanliness in daily life.
Firstly, cleanliness plays a crucial role in maintaining good health. A clean environment reduces the risk of diseases
caused by bacteria, viruses, and other harmful microorganisms. Simple habits such as washing hands and keeping
surroundings tidy can prevent illnesses like flu, diarhea, and skin infections.
Secondly, a clean environment contributes to a pleasant and productive atmosphere. Clean homes, schools, and
workplaces are more comfortable and welcoming. People are likely to feel motivated and focused in a tidy space
compared to a cluttered one.
Lastly, cleanliness has a significant impact on mental health. Living in a clean environment can reduce stress, anxiety,
and feelings of chaos. A clutter-free space often leads to a clearer mind, enabling better decision-making and improved
overall well-being.
In conclusion, cleanliness is vital for physical health, a productive environment, and mental clarity. Everyone should
prioritize cleanliness in their personal and public lives to create a healthier, happier world.
