In the past,man did not have to think about the protection of his environment.There were few people on the earth,and natural resources seemed to be unlimited.Today things are different.The world has become too crowded.We are using up our natural resources too quickly,and at the same time we are polluting our environment with dangerous chemicals.If we continue to do this,human life on the earth will not survive.

Everyone realizes today that if too many fish are taken from the sea,there will soon be none left.Yet,with modern fishing methods,more and more fish are caught.We know that if too many trees are cut down,forests will disappear and nothing will grow on the land.Yet,we continue to cut down more and more trees.We realize that if rivers are polluted with waste from factories,we will die.However,in most countries waste is still put into the rivers or the seas and there are few laws to stop this.We know,too,that if the population of the countries is rising at the present rate,in a few years,there will not be enough food.What can we do to solve these problems?

If we eat more vegetables and less meat,there will be more food for everyone.Land that is used to grow crops can feed five times more people than land where animals are kept.

Finally,if we educate people to think about the problems,we shall have a better and cleaner planet in the future.

In 1972, a social worker named Sanjit "Bunker " Roy founded Barefoot College in Tilonia, Rajasthan. Today the college trains women from villages for six months to build and maintain solar panels and other instruments. Barefoot College also offers education to the younger generation both during the day and at its solar bridge schools that meet by lamp light at night.

The philosophy of the Barefoot College is largely inspired by the principles of Gandhi, starting with quality beyond social classes, sex or religion. As a matter of fact, women are favorably regarded as an underserved population that is necessary to bringing villages together. Another central principle of the college is self-reliance, teaching students to support and think for themselves.

After the colleges female students have completed their half a year of training, they return to their villages villages, where they wait for solar panel parts to arrive from the college. Once they have all the pieces they need ,they construct the panels and begin collecting solar energy. For each village, the college also provides solar lamps. Villagers can, in addition, order parts for other solar-powered devices, such as water heaters and cooking stoves. Once assembled(組裝), they and the lamps are powered by the solar panels.

The effect on the villages is huge. Before the solar panels and lamps arrived, villagers had only candles to light their homes. This prevented adults from doing serious work at night, and it made studying difficult for children as well. As for physicians, they have difficulty treating patients and performing operations at night because they had to rely on flashlights.

Now there is power for not only the electrical appliances that the college provides but also devices like televisions, radios and computers. For the first time, the villagers can even connect to the world through the Internet.

My parents love me dearly of course and will do all they can make sure that I get a good education. They did not want me to do any work at family;they want me to devote all my time to my studies so that I'll get good marks in all my subjects. We may be one family and live under a same roof, but we do not seem to get much time to talk about together. It looks as if my parents treat her as a visitor and a guest.
