I agree with Roman poet and philosopher's words.
That's why I want to retell the article which is named
“Endangered Species”. It tells about different species of animals which are on the verge of extinction for example pandas, tigers, elephants, gorillas.
In the last 500 years, 844 species – like the passenger pigeon, the dodo, and golden toad have died out. Some scientists believe that half of the world's species may become extinct by the year 2100.
At the moment, experts say that human activity puts all species in the greatest danger. 
For example, the loggerhead sea turtle who lays eggs on the beaches. Its eggs are becoming increasingly popular with tourists. Humans cause terrible damage to the eggs by either stealing or breaking them.
Fortunately, many people are trying to help our planet. There are a lot of environmental groups and international organization whose main goal is to strengthen the cooperation among environmentalists from different countries. Of course, the volunteers help too. 
If we do nothing, we are heading for a disaster!
So what can we do to help? I think it is obvious. We need to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions and create a more environmentally-friendly planet where hunting is not allowed. We should ban harmful liquids (which cause poisonous evaporations) and overall try to look after our planet.
