Unit 9, Environment

Listening

Exercise 11, listen to the recording and put a tick next to the environmental problems Ashley talks about.

Two pictures are extra.

Hello, I'm Ashley Green.

I love our planet and I'm worried about it because we have many environmental problems today

and we will have many more in the future.

Nowadays, global warming is threatening our planet.

Because of global warming, the ice in the poles is melting and sea levels are rising.

Also, air pollution makes our lives very difficult.

We can't breathe in big cities.

Plastic waste is another big problem.

We must recycle plastic instead of throwing it around.
