Activist in the United States have been working to slow the process of global warming by protecting natural area throughout the United States. In Illinois organization like The nature Conservancy planted trees on May 10 of this year. This organization works all over the United States and a large part of the world.

My national and global context is similar that both of this shows that fossil fuels is still the large supplier of energy. The bad pollutants that get into the air everyday does not just impact one country or state or even city. This is our world and we should take care of it. What is different on the context is that we could actually change the way we live in this country and help to prevent the large amounts of pollutants in the air.
