EARTH DAY
READING COMPREHENSION
Read about planet Earth and then decide if the
sentences are true (T) or false (F)

Earth is a unique place, filled with beauty and diversity. Our planet offers a variety of
landscapes and habitats. It is home to countless animals, plants, and ecosystems, each
playing a vital role in maintaining life balance.

Our planet generously provides us with natural resources, including clean air, fresh water,
fertile soil, and precious minerals. These gifts sustain life in all its forms. However, it's
important to remember that these resources are finite and must be used wisely to ensure a
sustainable future for generations to come.

Earth is our only home and it's our responsibility to protect this special planet. Fortunately,
there are many ways we can help protect our planet and preserve its beauty and resources.
One of the simplest ways is by reducing our consumption and waste. By using less and
being mindful of our purchases, we can minimize the strain on the Earth's resources.

Another way is to reuse items whenever possible and to recycle materials like paper,
plastic, and glass. Recycling not only conserves valuable resources but also helps reduce
pollution and waste in our environment.

Additionally, we can contribute to environmental conservation efforts by planting trees,


supporting wildlife habitats, and advocating for policies that promote sustainability and
environmental protection.
