Read these conversations about human-caused environmental damage or global
warming. Do it in pairs. Practice the conversation in front of the class.

Daisy: Mom, I have this homework about global warming.

Can you help me?

Mom: Sure. What can I help you with?

Daisy : Do you know what causes global warming?

Mom: As far as I know, it is caused by air pollutants which

gather in the atmosphere. The pollutants trap the heat and

make our planet get hotter.

Daisy: Does global warming affect us?

Mom : Of course. It causes climate change. Do you remember

about last year’s early snowmelt? That’s one of the effects

of global warming.

Daisy: Yes, I remember that.

Mom: Global warming also drives plants and animals to

extinction as it disrupts their habitats.

Daisy : That’s terrible!

Mom: That’s why we should reduce carbon pollution

emission by planting trees, taking public transportation,

recycling, and turning off electronic devices when we’re not

using them.

Daisy: That’s very well understood. Thanks, mom.
