Don't Burn Leaves

The fall is here and everybody is burning their leaves. I have asma, so I can't breathe great when people are burning leaves. Also, burning leaves is dangerous. A guy down my road set a tree on fire accidently. Sometimes the smoke is so thick there will be an accident. Dad says burning leaves makes global warming worse, but letting them rot is better for earth. Stop burning leaves!
