ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEMS
Our environment is constantly changing. However, as our environment changes, so does the need to
become increasingly aware of the problems that surround it. With a massive influx of natural disasters
people need to be aware of what types of environmental problems our planet is facing. Current
environmental problems make us vulnerable to disasters and tragedies, now and in the future. Unless we
address the various issues seriously we are surely doomed for disaster. Current environmental problems
require urgent attention.
1. Pollution: Pollution of air, water and soil require millions of years to recoup. Industry and motor vehicle
exhaust are the number one pollutants. Heavy metals, nitrates and plastic are toxins responsible for
pollution. While water pollution is caused by oil spill, acid rain, urban runoff; air pollution is caused by
various gases and toxins released by industries and factories and burning of fossil fuels; soil pollution is
majorly caused by industrial waste that deprives soil from essential nutrients.
FIND OUT 5 WAYS HOW TO STOP POLLUTION.
2. Global Warming: Climate changes like global warming is the result of human practices like emission
of Greenhouse gases. Global warming leads to rising temperatures of the oceans and the earth surface
causing melting of polar ice caps, rise in sea levels and also flash floods, excessive snow or
desertification.
FIND OUT 5 WAYS HOW TO STOP GLOBAL WARMING.
3. Overpopulation: The population of the planet is reaching unsustainable levels as it faces shortage of
resources like water, fuel and food. Population explosion in less developed and developing countries is

Just how damaged they will be by pollution is uncertain. Acid rain The term acid rain refers to what scientists call acid deposition. It is caused by airborne acidic pollutants and has highly destructive results. Scientists first discovered acid rain in 1852, when the English chemist Robert Agnus invented the term. From then until now, acid rain has been an issue of intense debate among scientists and policy makers. Acid rain, one of the most important environmental problems of all, cannot be seen. The invisible gases that cause acid rain usually come from automobiles or coal-burning power plants. Acid rain moves easily, affecting locations far beyond those that let out the pollution. As a result, this global pollution issue causes great debates between countries that fight over polluting each other's environments. For years, science studied the true causes of acid rain. Some scientists concluded that human

TRAVELLING Exercise 1. a) When was the last time you travelled by bus, went by tram, took a taxi, flew, sailed on a car-ferry, rode a bike? These are all means of transport. A vehicle is the general word for all types of road transport. The last time I travelled by bus was in September and the last time I went by tram was yesterday. The last time I took a taxi was in August. The last time I flew was in September. The last time I sailed on a car-ferry was in 2020. The last time a rode a bike was in August. b) Divide the following means of transport into three groups: Transport by air Transport by water Transport on land A hot-air balloon, a jet, a A yacht, a submarine, a canoe, a A double-decker bus, a lorry, a helicopter, a plane, a rocket, rowing boat, a barge, a ferry coach, a tram, a moped, a van, a spacecraft

Each part has a special job, and all the parts work together to keep you alive and healthy. Good health is one of the most important things in life. There are certain things we can do to stay healthy. We should eat a balanced diet that includes the right kinds of food and drink plenty of clean, fresh water. We should exercise regularly, strengthening our muscles and keeping us in shape. Exercise helps the blood circulate around our bodies, cleaning out waste and supplying plenty of oxygen. It is also important what we get enough sleep. The number of hours we sleep we need depend on our age. Young babies sleep for 20-22 hours
sq m in front of the house. It is also possible to grow flowers and vegetables on an allotment – a piece of land rented for a low price from the local council. Another alternative is flower-boxes, attached to the windows or hanging flower-pots. Britain has many homeless people (280,000 as of 2019) who have to or choose to sleep outdoors or in temporary hostels. They also have their own magazine, the Big Issue, which talks about the problems of living in the streets. The Big Issue magazine currently sells over 83,000 copies in the UK every week. Vendors buy The Big Issue magazine for £1.25 and sell it for £2.50, meaning each seller is a micro-entrepreneur who is working, not begging. Therefore it is vitally important that buyers take their copy of the magazine when they pay for it. The British people have little deep-rooted attachment to their house as an object, or to the land on which it stands
from them. Africa owes the West more money than we and our generations to come can pay. I arrived in America in December of 1967as an official of what we believed was going to be a dynamic African nation – the young Republic of Biafra. But Biafra was defeated and Nigeria remained one, as a giant of Africa. In the last 32 years, I have watched with horror and outright helplessness as the downward slide of the African race continues to escalate. But rather than address the problems, we resort to blaming the Caucasians, Asians and others for our misfortune. We are not men enough to accept responsibility for our actions. Africans blame either the British, French or little Portuguese/Spanish for their problems. Africans in America blame the Caucasians for all their problems, or any other ethic group they have allowed to take over their neighbours, a frequently recurring phenomena. Africans blame the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank, the Group of 7, the
