Lesson 2. Nature and the Environment » 4

Write answers to the questions. You may use the information from tasks 1—3. 1) What environmental problems do you think pose great danger to nature and our world (e.g., acid rain, deforestation, water pollution)? First of all it’s pollution, that brings a lot of problems to our environment. 2) Are these threats caused by human activity or by natural occurrences? Air and water pollution are caused by human activity. 3) What are some reasons why people do not recycle or are careless when they dispose of garbage? Because people do not realize what a bad impact has on our environment and hence on our health. 4) Write one thing you can personally do to protect the environment. I think we all should try to shorten the quantity of the garbage and to recycle it.
