Environment Protection - summary

We are rounding up the topic "Environmental Protection" this week. Lots of new vocabulary have been learnt. Many current problems have been discussed such as pollution, global warming, greenhouse effect, rare and vanishing species, deforestation, etc. Many facts have been discovered while searching the internet for environmental issues information (and your retweets are the evidence). The conclusion we've come to is frightening: all humanity is to blame for this disaster that is happening.
This recently released video introduces the new BBC series "Blue Planet II". Watch it and admire the astonishing beauty of the Earth which may disappear one day if we don't take care of it.

  4. People must remember that the Earth does not belong to us: we belong to the Earth. Cmlimate change is happening, air, land and water pollutions are happening - humans are causing it. Environmental protection should be in priority of the humanity. I believe that we have the money and even the technology to protect our planet, to make it a better, cleaner and safer place. Our world is a fine place and worth fighting for.
    Also, this video is breathtaking. The collaboration of Radiohead, Hans Zimmer and David Attenborough for such an important project causes goosebumps. Can’t wait to see all series.

    1. A number of technologies is currently being developed to reverse climate change but it's a more complecated task than it seems... Yes, goosebumps was my reaction to the song too :) Radiohead are known for their concern about environment btw

  5. I have just watched the film Blu Planet about the ocean inhabitants. It was breasthtaking. I had only one wish -to dive under the water and see everything with my own eyes. I wanted to be a part of the Great ocean.

  6. Watching this video, I once again make sure that the beauty of nature is indescribable. I want everything to remain just as beautiful. Nature needs our protection. We can afford it. Humanity does not have the right to deprive animals of their habitat. Mankind is obliged to take care of the rights of nature.
