Question

[Minh Lệ]

Read the conversation again and match the two halves in the two columns​.

Club leader: Hello. Welcome back. Today we’re discussing environmental problems and environmental protection. What are our serious environmental problems now?

Nam: Pollution and habitat loss, I think.

Ann: I agree. The air and water quality are getting worse and worse.

Club leader: Any others?

Ann: Yes, I can think of some like global warming, endangered species loss, …

Nam: So what should we do to help protect our environment?

Club leader: We can reduce our carbon footprint even in our homes.

Ann: What do you mean by “carbon footprint”?

Club leader: It’s the amount of carbon dioxide we release into the environment.

Ann: I see. So we can do things like turning off devices when we’re not using them.

Club leader: Right … And there is much more we can do, like practising the 3Rs.

Nam: We can plant more trees in our neighbourhood too.

Ann: And try to avoid using single-use products, like plastic bags, and stop littering.

Club leader: Yeah. And we can volunteer at some local environment programmes to save endangered species.
