Comparing nature between Korea and the U.S.

 
 
 
 
 
  Our science and technology are improving and growing everyday. However nature is being destroyed even though people know that nature is very important to humans. It's a sad thing because nature is based on our life. Especially for me, I breed dogs so I realize how the nature and all the living things are so- valuable. After I came to the U.S., I was shocked because the Americans conserve nature very well. I want to tell you how nature is different between Korea and U.S.
 
 
 





  In Korea, we have a few national parks because of the geography. Korea is small but has 90 million people. Our buildings and houses are quickly expanding. We don't have many spaces for all the people. Second, the Korean government uses a lot of money for the military. We are still in a state of truce with North Korea. The government spends small mounts on nature conservation..


 
 
 





  However in the U.S., they have huge amounts of land for all the citizens. I think the U.S. has very wonderful geograplical conditions. Most of the cities have their own parks eventhough the city is crowded. And what is surprising about this is that the parks are always clean. Maybe the U.S. knows the value of nature.

  When I was at elementry school, I went to lots of national parks in the U.S. I visited YellowStone National Park, the Grand Canyon, Arches, and ect. What I want to say is, it was just amazing! I can't explain my feelings. After I went back to Korea, I felt envious of the U.S. national parks.


 
 





  I want more natural things like trees and flowers eventhough they are small. They are the background of nature. I think Korea must know that we need more natural not artificial things or advertise how the nature is important to improve the quality of life. I know it's hard to change quickly, but we must start right now for our next generations.
