Death could also possibly happen to both human and animals for it’s like a chain that our illegal actions will return to us when time comes.

When we live in unclean surroundings, our health suffers. We throw garbage here and there without caring that people might step on it.

Therefore, we must learn the right way of disposing our garbage.
