Possible introductions to the topic and the argumentation
1. Describe the pictures:
- In the first picture, I can see four young people. They are smiling and wearing gloves. They are holding bags full of rubbish, so they are cleaning up a park or forest.
- In the second picture, I can see three young women. They are planting small trees in the ground. It looks like they are working together to protect nature.
2. Talk about ways in which you can support your environment:
- I can separate my rubbish and recycle paper, plastic, and glass.
- Moreover, I can use my bike or public transport instead of driving a car.
- Furthermore, I can save water and energy at home, for example by taking shorter showers or turning off lights.
- I can also avoid plastic bags and use reusable bottles and bags.
3. Discuss the importance of celebrities standing up for the environment and also what can be criticized about it:
- It is important because celebrities have a lot of influence. Many people listen to them, so they can spread awareness about climate change and environmental problems.
- Celebrities can use their fame to collect money for good projects and motivate their fans to act more environmentally friendly.
- However, they can also be criticized. Sometimes they talk about saving the environment but travel a lot by plane or live in very big houses, which is not good for the environment.
- Some people think that celebrities only talk about the environment to look good in public.
