ADAPT OR DIE

I have to say something about green house effect because we can see the effect of it in daily life. Although there are a lot of attempt to have some countries give up releasing CO2, the attempts aren't enough.
Environmentalists have long said the world should concentrate on preventing climate change, not adapting to it. But goverments, especially developed countries's goverments, oppose it because when they accept this situation, they have to do something which opposes their benefit for example America and China.So we have to have them reduce producing CO2.'How can we do this?' is the main problem........
We try to persuade these countries, but we can't accomplish this easily so we can just try.However we can't be like greenpeace members because we can't chain us to nuclear reactors or some other places but we can keep them underpressure to have them do something

IRONY

I want to talk about a poem which takes my attention in my literature lesson.Its name is 'Ozymandias'. This poem was written in 1818. It s about a King who lived in Egypt. His name is Ozymandias.

The narrator met a traveller from antique land. He told the narrator what he saw. Traveller said 'there is a statue in my town. Two vast and trunkless legs of stone stand in the desert. The statue was Ozymandias' statue'.
There was a writting on this statue. The pedestal was about the King's speech that 'My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings. Look on my works (my work means what i do), you mighty, and despair!'
There was nothing but a wreck. Ozymandias was proud of his working but there was nothing now, only dust and sand. What a huge irony!!
