- talk about the ways of reducing pollution at your school
Environment is an essential part of our life. A clean environment is necessary for a peaceful and healthy life. An environment is the natural surroundings which helps human beings, animals and other living things to grow and develop naturally. But nowadays, our environment is disturbing in many different ways. Any type of disturbance in the nature’s balance affects the environment totally. It does not only ruin human lives but also affects on all living beings. We can save our environment with the little step taken by everyone on the earth. We should reduce the amount of waste, throwing wastes properly to its place only…and many other simple ways. It is very important to save environment for human existence. When we protect the environment, we are protecting ourselves and our future as well.

Smart phone has played a very important role in our lives. It is an useful entertaining instrument. We can download a lot of games or books, music, movies and they are free. After a stressful working day, this will be a good way to relieve stress and get back energy. In addition, the phone is also considered one of the modern educational methods. Only with the phone connected to the Internet, we can access and surf the web to enlarge knowledge. On the Internet there are a lot of different knowledge from literature, theology, history, physics to astronomy and politics. Moreover, there are also a number of other helpful news channels, which helps us broaden our knowledge of cooking, fashion, behavior in communication, ... Last but not least, because of the compact , being easy to carry so the phone is loved by almost people. We can take it to anywhere and use it any time.

Pollution prevention, also known as P2, happens when people change their plans, practices and habits in order to reduce the generation of pollution and waste at the source, instead of trying to clean it up after the fact. Pollution prevention also includes activities that protect natural resources (i.e. trees, water) through conservation or more efficient use of resources.
The key to environmental sustainability is thinking globally and acting locally. Pollution prevention is about making smart choices–both in what we buy and in how we use products. It involves looking at the causes of waste and pollution and figuring out how to prevent them.
Due to the number of people in attendance and the many activities taking place throughout the day at a school, larger quantities and more types of waste are produced at schools than in homes. Students, administrative staff, teachers, janitors, and contractors all use energy, water, and even hazardous chemicals, throughout the school year. Therefore, schools are a great place to introduce pollution prevention (P2) ideas on how to reduce or eliminate pollution and waste, which can be harmful to humans and the environment and costly to school budgets.
Where is waste generated in schools?
Energy: used in lighting, office machines, heating, air conditioning, transportation
Hazardous chemicals: found in cleaning supplies, aerosol cans, paints, science labs (mercury), art classrooms, janitors' storerooms
Pesticides: used on school grounds, gyms, kitchens, locker rooms
Water: used in bathrooms, kitchens, locker rooms, sinks in classrooms, outdoors
How can your school prevent pollution?
All students, teachers, administrators, and janitors should ask themselves if there is a better way to do their job–a way that will not create waste. In other words, everyone at the school should adopt a "less is best" attitude.
Some ways that students, teachers, and school administrators can prevent pollution at school include the following:
Bike, walk, or share rides to and from school.
Request that drivers of school buses and cars turn off their engines while they wait to pick up or drop off students.
Use less toxic glues, paints, markers, and other materials.
Start a book exchange.
Collect unused school supplies at the end of the year for reuse next year.
Buy unbleached, recycled paper.
Organize a tree-planting event on school grounds, or organize a school-ground naturalization project to create opportunities for outdoor learning through hands–on experience.
Use both sides of paper.
Take a "litter-less" lunch to school, by using reusable containers and a re-usable lunch bag.
Use refillable pens, printer toners, and ribbon cartridges.
Turn off machines when they are not in use.
Organize a paper, glass, plastic or metal recycling project.
Eliminate the use of pesticides and chemicals on the school playing fields.
Encourage students to implement pollution prevention principles that they have learned at school in their homes.
Form a pollution prevention team.
Celebrate Environment Week and participate in a community event.
1Many pollution prevention opportunities are available to schools. Below is a list of some things schools can do:
- Purchase less toxic cleaning supplies.
- Use double-sided copies. Set all computers to print double sided.
- Join the Clean Air Zone Program and actively encourage parents to adhere to the signs by no idling.
- Use energy-efficient fluorescent lights and properly recycle them when they are spent.
- Start an alternative transportation program at school to encourage biking, walking, or carpooling.
- Turn off lights when not in use.
- Use recycled products and other environmentally friendly products.
- Plug holes and caulk windows to stop heat loss.
- Lower the thermostat during unoccupied hours.
- Turn off all machines when not in use.
- Fix leaks in faucets and pipes.
- Only run the dishwasher when it is full.
- Use water-efficient and native landscaping.
- Water school grounds in the morning or in the evening to prevent evaporation. Do not over water.
- Use a minimal amount of fertilizers and pesticides and follow directions. Find natural alternatives if possible.
- Use non-chemical pest control methods such as swatters for insects and mechanical traps for mice.
- Use integrated pest management.
- Start a Chemical Roundup Program to properly dispose of old and potentially hazardous materials and prevent the accumulation of chemicals in the future.

Hello everyone, today I'd like to tell you some information about types and sources of energy. Energy is classified into two main groups: renewable and non-renewable.The energy generated from natural sources such as the sun, wind, rain, and tides is called renewable energy. They are plentiful and can be generated again and again. They also have low carbon emissions so they are considered green and environment-friendly. Moreover, using renewable energy can reduce your electricity bills. Unfortunately, solar energy can be only used during the daytime but not during night or the rainy season. Geothermal energy also can bring toxic chemicals beneath the earth's surface to the top and can create environmental changes.
Non-renewable energy is the energy taken from other sources that are available on earth.They are limited and will run out in the future. They can't be re-generated in a short time.Fossil fuels - natural gas, oil and coal - are examples of them. They are cheap and easy to use. However, when burnt, they release toxic gases in the air so they cause serious environmental changes such as global warming. And the important thing is that non-renewable sources will expire someday. 2. 1. Use public mode of transportation
Encourage people to use more and more public modes of transportation to reduce pollution. Also, try to make use of carpooling. If you and your colleagues come from the same locality and have same timings you can explore this option to save energy and money.
2. Conserve energySwitch off fans and lights when you are going out. A large number of fossil fuels are burnt to produce electricity. You can save the environment from degradation by reducing the number of fossil fuels to be burned.
3. Understand the concept of Reduce, Reuse and RecycleDo not throw away items that are of no use to you. In-fact reuse them for some other purpose. For e.g. you can use old jars to store cereals or pulses.
4. Emphasis on clean energy resourcesClean energy technologies like solar, wind and geothermal are on high these days. Governments of various countries have been providing grants to consumers who are interested in installing solar panels for their home. This will go a long way to curb air pollution.
5. Use energy efficient devicesCFL lights consume less electricity as against their counterparts. They live longer, consume less electricity, lower electricity bills and also help you to reduce pollution by consuming less energy.
Several attempts are being made worldwide on a personal, industrial and governmental levels to curb the intensity at which air pollution is rising and regain a balance as far as the proportions of the foundation gases are concerned. This is a direct attempt at slacking Global warming. We are seeing a series of innovations and experiments aimed at alternate and unconventional options to reduce pollutants. Air pollution is one of the larger mirrors of man’s follies, and a challenge we need to overcome to see a tomorrow.
3.TYPE OF NATURAL DISATER: Flood
WAYS TO PREPARE:
• – Check for local flood warnings if your area is at risk: look online or call Floodline.
• – Tune in to the local radio or television news for updates. Alert your neighbours, particularly elderly or vulnerable people.
• – Prepare an emergency kit, including emergency numbers, insurance policy, first aid kit, torch and water.
• – Use our home emergency contacts sheet so you have the numbers you need to hand, even if you lose power.
• – Have a list of irreplaceable items to keep safe and put important personal documents into a sealed bag.
• – Pack essential items you will need if evacuated – medication, clothing, toiletries and items for children.
• – Purchase unfilled sandbags and sand from builders’ merchants. Remember that, if there is a flood, demand may exceed supply – as people will rush to buy them.
• – Empty freezers and refrigerators, leaving doors open.
• – If you can, move any vehicles to higher levels.
• – If you have time, take photographs before you leave. This may help later with insurance claims.
• – Turn off the mains power and water, and take mobile phones and chargers with you. Put sandbags in toilet bowls to prevent sewage back-flow.
• – Shut windows, lock doors – and don’t forget to take your pets.
Topic 1:
hello, my name is..., im from...
i like...(or don't like).
i usually do .... in my free time. nice to meet you, thanks.
Topic 2 : today, more and more schools are polluted by some kinds of emissions in life. So, to reduce the pollution at my school, we should plant a lot of trees to filter the emissions to help our school have a fresh air envirroment
