If you look outside your window you will sometimes see the beautiful sky. But, the pollution in Hong Kong is quite serious and you never know what you are breathing in. If you have asthma it's not good to go out on polluted days. But there is something you can do about this. You can make a difference.

You may normally walk out of your room without switching off the lights or turning off the air conditioning.

Well think about it. It harms everyone that lives in our beautiful city. If you just turned off the lights and the air conditioner when you didn't need them, it would make a huge difference.

It will take a long time to get Hong Kong out of its dirty habits - like littering or not recycling.

If we don't do something about it soon, the whole world will be covered in trash. We must think about our children and our grandchildren's future.

There is a scale that judges how badly a country is polluted, with 0 being not polluted and 20 being the worst. Hong Kong ranks 14 on that scale.

Clean up! Then everyone will have a better life.
