Millennium goals: Ensuring enviormental sustainiblitly

    While reading goal number seven I became very interested in the things that they talked about. Pollution has always been a huge problem in the world. It has became an even bigger problem in todays society. Goal number seven stated that an estimated 863 million people reside in slums in the world today. Although financially family's may or may not be able to afford a nice place to live or choose the neighborhood they live in, they should be able to be guaranteed a safe and healthy environment. From 2010 to 2015 slum dwellers received improved water, sanitation and less crowded homes.  I think that this connects with Springfield and many other cities because pollution isn't really something that is only in one place, but it is in many. Things such as reducing littering, recycling, and saving energy are simple things that each and every person can do to help out.
