You are going to give a talk about the protection of the environment. You will have to start in 1,5 minutes and speak for not more than 2 minutes (10—12 sentences).

Remember to say:

● what the word «ecology» means;

● what pollutes the nature;

● what the main ecological problems are;

● what you attitude to protecting nature.

You have to talk continuously.

Now I’m going to give a talk about protection of the environment.

* To begin with, ecology is about biology and the relationships of organisms with their environment and each other. In plain English it might mean how people, animals, plants, water, and land influence each other. Also, how they depend on each other. In fact, it’s not as easy as it seems to be. Many ecologists and scientists make research to help people become aware and take care of our planet. That kind of thing.

* In my personal opinion, it is people who pollutes the nature. Industrial factories produce a lot of poisonous waste. We don’t recycle a lot of plastic and other trash. A lot of harmful things spoil water. Deforestation affects animals and soil. Transport vehicles produce exhaust gases. That all polluted the nature and threatens or future.

* As far as I know, the main ecological problems are climate change, environmental degradation, and resource depletion, pollution, global warming, overpopulation, waste disposal, ocean acidification, loss of biodiversity, deforestation, ozone layer depletion, acid rain, public health issues. And the list is constantly expanding.

* My attitude to protecting nature is very strong. I advocate for it actively. It is not enough, though. I see factories go on polluting air and water and no one can stop it. I think we have to pass very strict laws against them and begin to think about «green economics’.

That’s all I wanted to tell you about protection of the environment.
