Porto - Pollution and Solutions

Here are the texts everyone wrote about pollution in Porto...

We live in Porto.
We love our city, but Porto seems not to like us, because the people who live in Porto pollute the city and the river a lot.
We can clean the river, by not dropping trash in the water, because it is always making a cycle, it is moving, so, at some point, the water is going to be clean. - Carolina and Joana



I live in Porto. I like living there but I think there are many problems with the environment. One of these problems is the pollution of cars and the people drive a lot. I think people can use more public transport or drive cars with solar energy. If people do this we can contribute to saving the planet.
In Porto there is a lot of litter on the streets. It’s an other kind of pollution. To fight this problem people should put the rubbish in a recycling collection point. - Leonor S. and Inês



We live in Porto. Porto is a beautiful city, but it has three big problems: there is a lot of litter on the grounds and there is a lot of dog poo and of car‘s fumes, which pollute the city. The solutions for these problems are: people must recycle instead of leaving the litter on the street, they must take a small bag to collect the dog poo and people should use more public transport, like bus and the subway. - Pedro, João and Alex
