T: Now, let’s begin our conference. We have come here in order to discuss global problems. The problem is that the Earth is in danger. The environment is polluted. Many animals and birds on the Earth are disappearing. Many of them are in danger. Many animals are killed for their oil, skin, meat. There are few Indian tigers left on the Earth now. We can say the same thing about African elephants. People must take special care of them all.We must save wild animals. We must find the right balance between land, people, and animals. We must take care of the animals. The water which we drink is poisoned. Farmers spray chemicals on the crops and as a result we eat poisoned food. That’s why we have come there today.

( представители различных стран высказываются о том, какие существуют проблемы в области экологии)

P1: April 22 is the Earth day. People all over the world think about our planet. They think about water, air, plants and animals. Our planet is in great danger .Many people don’t know how to protect wild animals, plants, how to keep water clean…

P2: Water is very important for our life. It is in oceans, rivers, lakes. But very less of the water is drinkable. In many lakes water is very dirty. Sometimes people cannot swim in the sea. Fish die in such lakes.…

P3: I want to tell you about the problem of lake Baikal. It is the deepest lake in the world .It is 1741 meters deep. The lake is very beautiful but now it is in great danger , because of the factories which are near it…

P4: The temperature is rising. We do not have real Russian winter now. If the temperature grows by 3-4 degrees, it will become more difficult to live on the planet.

P5: Some people’s activities do a lot of harm to the nature. People cut down the trees, forests….

T: I am fully agree with you. You know, just a few years ago Lake Baikal was one of the clearest lakes of the world . And tourists , who came to this river, were given a glass of pure water as a local speciality.

Развитие навыков чтения .

Чтение открытого письма-обращения делегатам конференции.

T : Now, dear delegates, as a chairman of the conference I‘ve got “An open letter to the delegates of the conference from the progressive people of the world” .( текст письма раздается каждому участнику конференции )

Open letter of the progressive people of the world to the delegates of the conference about saving nature.

  • Invent – изобретать
  • Pollute - загрязнять
  • Pollution - загрязнение
  • Destroy the ozone layer - разрушать озоновый слой

Protecting nature is one of the great problems of our days. People harm land, lakes, nature water, air. People invented machines, cars, instruments and they pollute the world we live in. People all over the world think much about the future of the Earth.

One of the most important pollution problems is the pollution of waters : oceans, lakes, rivers. Many ships sail on the oceans- passenger ships, fishing ships, ships carrying oil. They pollute the waters and as a result fish die on the rivers.

The second important problem is air pollution. Cars and factories destroy the ozone layer of the Earth, which protects the Earth from the dangerous light of the Sun.

All progressive people of the Earth want their children to live in good, healthy world. We must protect the nature, water, the Earth. Live in harmony with nature!

Think globally, act locally!
Our planet is our home!

P1: My name is Mr. Brown. I’m from the newspaper “Times”. We try to do much to inform the people about environmental problems. The good news is that many countries are working hard to solve the ecological problems. To my mind we must not use rivers for economic purposes. What do you think about it?

P2: My name is Liza O’ Konor.Greenpeace representative. I think that people are not conscious about nature , because they don’t think about consequences of polluting lakes, rivers. They don’t think about that harmful effect which bad air and acid rains make on the people. I think that we must plant trees , recycle litter. Etc.

P3: My name is Svetlana Shakirova. I’m the press secretary of “Tatneft “company. I’m fully agree with the participants of the conference. There are a lot of ecological problems in our region too. But our company tries to be friendly with nature. Much work has been done to save pure mineral springs and they are very popular in our town. These springs are used to cure our people .

P4: My name is James Garret. I’m from the state Pennsylvania, the USA, the scientist on modern technologies.
