It appears you have a LITTLE DESIRE to actually FIX THE PROBLEM. The time is now for action to be taken on an individual basis. Stop over-consumption, stop driving massive vehicles, stop building monster homes. Start thinking about what happens when you act. Start supporting green initiatives. When you buy something, think about where it comes from, and where it's going when you're finished with it. And this is for our NEXT GENERATION!

Pollution ain't gonna "take over". Believe it or not, air quality, water quality etc. are much better now than they were a few decades ago throughout the western world, and most especially in the United States. The trend is towards further improvement. Basically, when people get sufficiently wealthy so they don't need to worry about food on the table and a roof over the head, they start demanding a cleaner environment.
Environmental conditions are much worse in second and third world countries. However, as those nations develop, there's no doubt in my mind that conditions will improve there as well.
I know this goes against the doom & gloom that kids are fed in school these days, but if you don't believe me, take a look at the numbers.

A selfish person doesn't care, of course but how about the millions of others (especially children) and not to forget all the animals which also have the right to life in future?

Because maybe it can turn around in our lifetime so we can enjoy a little purity and freshness for real.
Kinda strange answer, but hopefully you get the idea.

Cause if we start making changes now, we can make a difference. So that our children and grandchildren have a chance.

You just answered your own question. Unless dying is no problem to you.
