Man: Today, I'd like to talk about the long-term effects of pollution. You know what we throw away now will harm ourselves and eventually our descendants as well. Unfortunately, we tend to ignore this simple truth. It's just that we don't see the effects of pollution right after we pollute our environment . But, the fact is pollution caused by us will slowly kill our descendants. It's about time that we took serious steps. Otherwise, we won't be able to save our children from pollution. I firmly believe that the Earth is not only ours but also theirs. So, I want you to keep in mind that _________________________.
