Respected Principal,
teachers and dear friends.
Today I would like to
share something about Global warming and its defects to you.
Global warming has been
one of the most discussed controversial topics since the beginning of this
decade. On one side there are people protesting for change and the other side
there are many that think its a theory that has no real facts or proof. I
believe that global warming is indeed real and that something must be done in
order to help the situation that many people are unaware of.
First of all global warming is the
result do burning fossil fuels like coal and oil that release carbon dioxide.
some believe that global warming means that the world will become warmer all
over. the name global warming is misleading because in some places, it will
actually become colder.
Although the environment have some small parts
to it, it isn't as nearly as big to scale then man-kinds involvement. But what
can you do about it.
Firstly, plant a tree.
This could be easier than it sounds. Join or help out a local wildlife group
and ask to plant a tree. Trees, when fully grown, will help keep the planet
cooler.
Something as simple as
walking instead of taking the car will help reduce fumes. As well as stopping
pollution, you are giving yourself exercise, something important for our bodies
When you are at home, and
your getting a little cold. Put a jumper on instead of turning on the
heater. The extra heat produced by our homes also affects the planet. So
try wearing an extra layer in winter. If possible, buy your fruit and
vegetables from local suppliers. And try to avoid imported goods. The more
foreign food that we import the more pollution from aeroplanes and boats it will
create.Keeping to the speed limit can also help the environment.
Finally turning off unused sources of power such as
televisions and heaters will help the environment, as well as save you money.
If everybody stuck to these rules, we would be doing a
great thing by protecting the earth. So please take into consideration what I
have said, and try to do your part. After all, it will be our next generation
that will feel the effects. I conclude my speech
Thank you
Have a nice day
