problems“

Every day we hear about environmental
problems:
•Acid rain
•Pollution
•Climate change
•The destruction of rainforests
and other wild habitats
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.
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 health
of people and animals.
ANIMALS IN
DANGER!
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.
Dodo (Дронт)
The last of these large quiet birds died many years
ago
By the 1690s there were no dodos in the world.
Acid rains are dangerous for
animals, plants, water and people.
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.
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.
