1. Cause and Effect David Suzuki wrote an essay about humans starting to think about our world and its environment. The cause in the essay is that people got tired of garbage on the streets, because of that in some communities, each spring locals clean up their neighborhoods. Some cities also promote “clean and beautiful” campaigns to encourage people to clean up the streets. David Suzuki also explains that there are many sponsored cleanups of schools and community parks. The effect of this is the increased interest in cleaning and making our surroundings better.

David Suzuki used “cause and effect” technique to present his essay to the world. From my point of view, I think it was the right technique to use, because the essay isn’t that long, but at the same time it’s really powerful.

For example, the increase in pollution because of the cars, factories, and natural gases, could be fatal to our atmosphere. Each year there are more cars in our world, factories produce more
