How do you save your home from destruction and pollution? You clean it, you repair it, you renovate it, you allocate money in your budget to make it all possible, and you do it on a regular basis. How do you save your community from destruction and pollution - you become an active member of the community and participate in all its measures that are deemed necessary to save the community from destruction and pollution by doing some relevant job, paying membership fees, and being socially active.
Your question is directly related to the protection of the environment. Environmental protection consists of taking measures to limit or eliminate the negative impact of human activities on the environment. Beyond the simple conservation of nature, it is about understanding the systemic, and possibly global, functioning of the environment; identify the human actions that damage it to the point of harming current or future generations, and put in place corrective actions. This action is, therefore, both scientific, because it requires developing our limited knowledge in this area; citizen, since the decisions to be made, have a cost for the present generations, and an impact for future generations; political, because the decisions to be taken are necessarily collective and sometimes planetary. Scientific knowledge of the global functioning of the planet is very recent; it was only towards the end of the nineteenth century that the necessary theories were able to be formed. It took almost a century more to discover that human activities had a significant impact not only on this environment but that it was likely to be definitive. In 1972, the simultaneous creation of the United Nations Environment Program and corresponding governmental bodies in developed countries marks the starting point of the will to act collectively.
Support organizations such as the Sierra Club or start you own grassroots organization to stop indiscriminate destruction of nature. Embrace movements and actions to combat or minimize climate change. Educate your neighbor.

Destruction and pollution are mainly men's work. I consider we ill place our inventions as something insuperable, as the best solution always, considering ourselves as the best specie ever. But nature usually offers solutions much more suitable and sustainable. We should put our displaced pride with waste to recycle and begin to investigate what nature offers us. And care it not for our profit, but for the coming ones.
But also your question evidence a main problem: are men in or out of nature? Do we consider ourselves as natural animals? It's almost grotesque the way we try to show we aren't. Gorillas must laugh at us...
