Good morning! I am glad to see you!  We live in the world where there are a lot of ecological problems. Nowadays the global situation in ecology is very serious. Many people all over the world are worried about it and discuss it in Russian, English, French and other languages. We are here to discuss several questions connected with pollution and other environmental problems and how to solve some problems.

2.  Речевая зарядка.

Teacher: What does the word «environment» mean to you?

Pupils’ answers

The environment is your surroundings, your house, your garden, your town, your shops, the hills and rivers, the ocean, the air and so on.

 
Environment is our surroundings and what around us. 
Its where we live. Some environments are cleaner than others and that's a healthy environment, sadly some places are not. This is caused by pollution and littering. 

The environment can be as broad as their surroundings. For animals, this can included their habitat, other animals, and other things that may not be part of their natural habitat like a power plant or other unnatural addition. For people, the environment not only includes the building or city in which they reside, but also every person with whom they have contact and every part of nature to which they are exposed. Environment can include any living or nonliving element to which a subject is exposed. 

Teacher: What do you think is in danger now?

Pupils’ answer:

• Acid rain

• Pollution

• Climate change

• The destruction of rainforests and other wild habitats

• Animals

• Extinct animals

The environment is all the things we need to be able to live - clean water to drink , air to breathe and healthy food to eat.

We can’t live without plants and animals. They help to make the soil, they clean the water and air, and they give us all our food.

The world is our home and we want to see it clean and beautiful.

At the same time we take from nature as much as we can.

• We cut down forests

• Build farms, houses, roads and factories on the land.

5 слайд

We make a lot of waste. Some of which is TOXIC. We pour toxic waste into

our rivers, lakes, seas and oceans. Chemical waste pollute river water, killing

wildlife .The pollution affects the healthof people and animals.

It is necessary to help wild animals. Many of them are in danger now. For example, pandas which live in the jungle and white bears which live in the Arctic.

The last of these large quiet birds died many years ago.

By the 1690s there were no dodos in the world.

8 слайд

Acid rains are dangerous for animals, plants, water and people.

9 слайд

Forest fires are one of the greatest natural destroyers of our forests.

Each year fires burn millions of hectares of forest all over the world.

10 слайд

Rainforests are very dense, warm and wet forests. Rainforests are found on every continent across the Earth, except Antarctica. They cover only 6% of the Earth’s surface but yet they contain more than a half of the world’s plant and animal species.

11 слайд

Extinct animals

The Earth has been getting hotter because we are producing too many greenhouse gases. Because the Earth is getting hotter, ice is melting. Scientists say that in 2050 some parts of Great Britain will be under the sea.

Match the highlighted phrasal verbs in the text with their meanings: put in the bin, wear, think of, lower, stop smth working, reduce.

Teacher: «We create the world in which we live; If that world becomes unfit for human life, It is because we tire of our responsibility» - Cyril Connolly, English critic.
