Self-study activty:
I know you are always asked the same questions when discussing environmental issues, so here it is again: What small everyday things can we do to protect the environment? Get together with an English-speaking friend a draw up a list as exhaustive as possible.
Now watch this four-minute long video and check if any of your ideas are mentioned. The clip was filmed in four different settings. For checking your ideas, pay special attention to the first location, a school, and the third one, a football pitch.
I guess you must be in a state of shock now and must have forgotten about checking your list. That's quite understandable, as the video, created by the 10:10 Global organisation, is so controversial and has come in for such severe criticism that the organisation has had to withdraw it from the campaign.
Self-study activity:
Get together with an English-speaking friend and give your opinion about the video. What point was Richard Curtis, the director, trying to make? Did he get his message across? Is it right to withdraw the video?
You can read the transcript of the video here.
Many thanks to Jeffrey Hill for drawing my attention to this video.
