TEXT N°1
I want to do something
Hi, Greg ! For Earth Day , I don’t usually do anything because I didn’t know when it was ! But , this year I want
to do something with my friends, because I know that ecological problems are important and it’s an occasion to
protect our planet ! I think that we ‘ll try to save energy and water .Maybe, we must also recycle paper and
bottles ! Now , I ‘ll try to do that everyday ! Thanks !
Andreas, 41 , Greece

EXPERTN°2 TEXT N°2
Think of future generations
Hi, Greg ! This year , I will try to do a lot of things like going to school on my bicycle or not switching the lights
on for a long time. I think it’s very important to be careful about pollution.And I think everyone can do
something- small things like not leaving the lights on if you aren’t in a room , not leaving the water running
when you brush your teeth or not always taking the car when you want to go somewhere .It’s important to think
of the future generations. But you shouldn’t just do something on Earth Day , you should be carefull every day
of your life.
Roberto, 13,Italy
EXPERT N°3 TEXT N°3
A BETTER WORLD !

Hi everybody ! I think we should all make an effort every day ! We must not just make an effort one day of the

that that we make a better world.

EXPERTN°4 TEXT N°4
