Watch the film and define kinds of pollution shown in the film.

Pollution is the biggest problems in the world today. What are the problems and what can people do? PROBLEMS: SOLLUTIONS: Pure drinking water has already become a problem in many parts of the world. - We can save water. For example, we can save water from our baths and use it for the garden. - We can stop losing water because of leaking pipes. Many cities have successfully saved water by repairing pipes. We pollute the water and the ground with toxic waste that comes from factories and with acid rain which kills trees, fish and animals. - Governments must pass laws to stop factories from wasting and polluting water. Factories should recycle water and stop pouring chemicals into our lakes and rivers. We pollute the air with cars and factories: gas fumes come from cars and smoke comes from factory chimneys. -We could use our cars less and walk, cycle or use public transport. -- Factories could clean their smoke. We poison the environment, using chemicals to spray fields and gardens to kill insects and weeds, or using detergents. We should only buy washing-up liquid and washing powder that do not harm the environment. The main reason for pollution is waste – that is things which we use at home and then throw away. - We should collect different kinds of waste: bottles, cans, paper, rags, and take them to places where they can be recycled. - We can re- cycle and re-use things. - DON’T WASTE food, water, energy, materials. Use everything sensibly and carefully. Forests are part of our environment. By cutting down trees we harm the environment. When the forest is destroyed, it isn’t only the trees that are lost, the homes of millions of animals and plants are destroyed too. Many kinds of species are in danger. We can help by re-using paper when it is possible. Encourage other people to buy only recycled paper! Have you ever planted a tree? Educate other people about the danger of forest fires.

What do you think of our future? Make up predictions matching the parts of sentences. 1. If we don’t cut down rainforests - 2.If we protect wildlife - 3.If we use only good petrol and more public transport - 4.If we recycle paper, glass, cans – 5.If we don’t throw away litter and rubbish – 7. If we don’t pollute rivers – a) water will be clean and fish will not die. b) our cities will be clean and safe. c) rare plants and animals will survive. d) we will save important resources. e) we can reduce air pollution. f) we will save endangered species.

Homework Translate the poem by Lorraine Bayes “Hug The Earth”.

Hug The Earth Lorraine Bayes Walking along feeling free Feeling the earth here with me And I love her, She loves me. I hug the Earth, the Earth hugs me. She’s our friend, We’d like to be together forever. The Earth is our garden It’s a beautiful place For all living creatures For all the human race, Helping Mother Earth We can peacefully roam, We all deserve a place We can call our home. Food is a treasure from soil and the sea. Clean fresh air from the plants and the trees The warmth of the sun giving life each day Turns water into rain, it’s nature’s way. And 1 would like to thank you, Mother Earth, I like to see you dressed in green and blue I want to be by you.
