Teacher: Good morning, boys and girls! Today we have some guests at the lesson. We greet our guests. We are glad to see you. I hope you are fineand ready to work hard and enthusiastically. Today we have our lesson on the topic “Ecological Problems.
WEATHER”.

It’s a wonderful world we live in. It is our Earth. For thousands of years the Earth has given support to all forms of life – human beings, animals, birds, fish, insects and plants. But now people all over the world think about our planet. They say our planet is in danger.

Our planet is in trouble.

We hear it every day.

And yet, we all continue

To throw it all away.

We’re threatening our future,

Endangering our lives.

If we don’t take some action,

Our planet won’t survive.

We have very serious environmental problems on our Earth.

Who can say what these problems are?

P1: One of the problems is air pollution.

P2: I think the next global problem is water pollution.

P3: A lot of animals, birds and plants are disappearing now. To my mind, it’s a very serious problem.

P4: Another problem is overpopulation. Nowadays there are too many people on the Earth, so the pollution of it becomes higher and higher.

P5: And we have also such a problem as destruction of natural resources. For example, every year more and more trees are cut down.

T: You are quite right. At this lesson we are going to discuss global environmental problems, natural disastersandwe will try to answer the question: “What can we do to protect our environment and to save our precious planet?”
