Climate change is the major issue in our country. Because of this problem, we don't get adequate rainfall for a couple of years, so that our country is suffering from water scarcity in many states. If this situation continues, our people will die out soon. I'm extremely worried 😣
Thanks for sharing, Gayu. However, that is definitely a concern!
Wow Thanx alot! OoE bringing Useful lessons always! The biggest environmental issue in our country is defo/tion, soil erosion & over grazing. The best way to deal with climate change is car emissions & reduce burning woods. Keep it up! 👍

Hello! I’d like to tell you that the information which you’ve been giving us is very useful and important for each of us! It makes our minds so fresh, and prepared for life competition!
Yeah
The girl seems talking by heart. If she looked face to face, conversation would be real one.
I think they are not in the same place in this video.
This topic is very common and sometimes difficult. Thank you for that detailed explanation and vocabulary!
Great video! I really liked the mix of dialog, vocabular help and the opportunity to practice each part through good questions! In addition to this, the video is perfect, because you're talking about different aspects of the main topic environment. Thank you!
In my country the farming isn't fully mechanised.the smaller farmers still grow food using traditional methods. But the livestock farming is fully mechanized. I think it's worth paying extra to eat organic food to encourage the traditional farming methods as well as it's healthy to eat organic food. As the food has great impact on our health so it's important to know how it is produced so that we can choose healthy food and avoid it's negative affects on our health.
Hi, Gina and Olí. Both of you look great on this important topic. All the vocabulary is complete.The way you develop this is fantastic and amazing.I look forward to watching more world topics like this.

Hi Gina and Oli! I really love you and I'm all the time following you because your lessons are so helpful. Really really thank you. You are the best👏🗓😍
It is an excellent material for who are interested in learning english like me. Grettings from Colombia.
Wo! I love the lesson . I learnt many important phrases that l will use with my class when the lockdown is over. Thank you so much 😍😍😍
thanks for all of the information that you have given us, it was really important and common
phrase
I'm from Vietnam, which is a developing country so farms are mostly smaller and use more traditional methods. However, the government is making effort to minimize that by importing machinery from other countries to modernize agriculture.
In my opinion, it's not worth paying extra to eat organic food. According to a report I read recently, some unsubstantiated reports claimed that only conventionally grown food could apply enough nutrition for consumers and they are superior to synthetic one, which was not determined by any scientists, so some people took advantage of that to raise the price of organic food to force comsumers to pay more extra.
That I should know how my food is produced is important because that can helps me to have the best choice for choosing, so i'm I have more knowledge about kinds of food I'm eating and can protect myself from illness.
Thanks for sharing your response, Ngoc! Nicely written. Here are a couple suggestions for your writing:
1) '...making an effort to...' not, 'making effort'.
2) '...and they are superior to synthetic ones,' or, '...to synthetic food,' not, 'one'.
3) '...consumers to pay extra,' or, 'to pay more', not, 'more extra'.
Hope this feedback is helpful!

I am very lucky to live in an area with a great air quality. There are lots of green trees providing shade surrounded my hometown, and that’s why people in my neighborhood spend more time exercising every morning to enjoy the fresh air. The local government makes it illegal to throw out garbage on the street and put many public bins to raise local people's awareness about environmental issues. In addition, there aren’t any industrial zones so the environment is less polluted. Local people have a bin in their house and they usually put many kinds of waste in it. Unfortunately, people don't have a habit of sorting the waste into recyclables and non-recyclables. At the weekend, all of the rubbish will be collected by trash collectors and gone into landfill nearby. To keep the environment clean, local people are encouraged to grow food organically without using pesticides or herbicides.
Thanks for sharing your response, Vy Ngo. Here are a few suggestions for you:
1) '...with great air quality,' not, 'a great air quality'.
2) '...providing shade surrounding my hometown,' not, 'surrounded'.
3) '...will be collected by trash collectors and sent to a landfill nearby...' is a bit better than, '...will be collected by trash collectors and gone into landfill nearby...'
Hope this helps you!
I live in a small town, where there are no pollution problems. But I live near the sea and the problem is the plastic that the sea brings to the beaches and the cigarette butts left by the bathers. Moreover, every year the beaches are reduced due to the rising of the sea
Thanks for sharing, Antonio. Nicely written!
Superb class I liked very much ...all are can understand easily and both talking way so calm ....😊
The problem here in Spain is that even though being one of the most sunny country on Europe, the government does not promote any help to adopt the solar panels technology, however, right now the price of solar panels are decreasing. I have to say that maybe the things are changing with the new government.
Thanks for sharing, Benjamin!
Thank you so much! I need this phrases and words for my school living exam. So, i’m gonna add final result.
2! In my city we sort our garbage but very irregular. We have sorting bins in every yards but unfortunately not everyone sort their rubbish.
In my country commonly recycling plastic, paper and glass.
The non-recycled waste going to the landfill.
you are great, thanks a lot for your help guys. Me encantan estos videos, son geniales!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Thank you,both for introducing important topic which is terrible to our Environment whether globally or nationally.I think to deal with climate change is reforestation and afforestation. It plays significant role to bind the soil and minimize sea level rise. Using artificial fertilizer for sufficient food rather than using natural manure also affects the land after long time the soil be come infertile and this leads desert.
Nice, Saleh! Thank you for sharing your response. Great ideas!
To be honest i searches about this lesson 2 days ago 😂😂 I am so lucky I found it

I feel so sad that in my country, Vietnam, people don’t sort garbage, and our government talks about environmental protection frequently but they do nothing. So I don’t see anything that would be better in short term. I visited the Philippines (also a developing country like Vietnam) and other countries, I saw that they have already sorted their garbage for a long time. It’s really good thing in their country.
Thanks for sharing your response! One suggestion: 'It's a really good thing,' not, 'It's really good thing'.
really good bonding between Olli and her friend
I like these two presenters .
It is wonderful!
I can't thank you enough for this lesson!
Please, keep this thing up.
When I was in Finland , I was surprised that there’s sort packaging waste. I think it’s so important to protect environment from garbage also it’s environmental friendly. Because recycling garbage should divide from non recycling garbage. Unfortunately in my country there isn’t bin with different collar for rubbish. We have only in city center. Non recycling waste will Destroy or with a year they disappear themselves.
Thanks for sharing, Rishad. Here are a few suggestions for you:
1) '...was surprised that there was packaging waste...' not, '...was surprised that there’s sort packaging waste...'
2) '...protect the environment...' not, '...protect environment...'
3) '...garbage and it's environmentally friendly,' not, '...garbage also it’s environmental friendly.'
Hope this is useful for you!

How helpful the video is! Thanks so much.
In my country there are both big mechanized farms and small farms, but in my opinion they are mostly smaller using more traditional methods. I think it is worth paying extra to eat organic food, because it is necessary for our health and much more environmentally friendly. Of course, it is important to know how our food is produced , because it effects on the quality of our life.
Thanks for sharing, Tamara! One correction: '...because it affects the quality of...' or, '...because of its effects on the quality of...' not, '...because it effects on the quality of...'.

Very useful information. Thank you very much. You are the best!
I live in countryside in the north of Chittagong town. Air Quality is really good in local place but in Chittagong town is extremely bad. Air quality is degrading day by day due to congested diesel driving vehicle, factory garbage, and much more wasted of food.Besides these we are demolishing forest and cutting trees much more than planting trees. National government has taken many steps to improve air quality. Some steps are such as implementing afforestation program, imposing restrictions on driving in the city area etc
Thanks for sharing, Rumi. Here are a few suggestions for you:
1) '...in the countryside,' not, 'in countryside'.
2) 'The air quality is really good,' not, 'Air Quality is really good'.
3) '...good locally but in Chittagong it is extremely bad,' not, '...good in local place but in Chittagong town is extremely bad'.
Hope this is useful for you!
Thank you very much for this helpful and supportive information.
This is my answer.
1) Recently, the air quality is fresh and clear in a large city. In the past, it used to be terrible, it was hazy as well as full of dust from construction.
2) As far as I know, the local government provides several solutions. Firstly, there is a restriction on driving that uses fossil fuel and harmful gas. The encouragement in using bikes, skateboard and scooters are used. More organizations are made to maintain the atmosphere.
3)From my point of view, walking should be taken into action. As I said earlier. Bicycles should be used wisely to avoid traffic jams as well as carbon emissions.
4) In my country, I usually sort of garbage during the morning, I mostly sort of them into different box as well as color, if they are liquid. I will put them into plastic bag and put them in boxs.
5) As far as I know, fossil fuel, organic waste and plastic waste is well-known in my country as they are widely used by major Asian.
6) Being unable to be recycled, People mostly throw them into a giant hole in the ground the the waste area located in the city centre.
7) From my point of view, many farms in the Southern part of the country have become modernized and international. They mostly use big and fast machines to do.
8) I would say that As long as they're healthy and fresh. I don't mind paying them.
9) Yes, definitely. We need to know the main source of product if they are clean, natural or not. Because, if we go on eating food from an unknown origin. We may have several illnesses without regret
10) I would say yes as people nowadays don't actually care about this issue although there is a warning sign from scientists that flooding and rising sea levels will occur in a mountainous area.
11) I Believe that my country will be seriously affected by flooding, high rate of intensity of storm surges, and damage to coastal areas. We won't be able to live happily and soon we will equally extinct
12) The first thing that we need to head on is renewable and alternative fuels instead of using fossil, coal, and gas. Solar energy, wind power, Hydropower and Bioenergy is highly recommended.
It is compulsory to avoid using plastic products as much as possible. Instead, I suggest using natural and recycled products from banana leaves, paper, and sugarcane waste.
Great, Tran! Thanks for watching and sharing. Here are some corrections for you:
1) Are you talking about your specific city, or a city in general? If it's your city, you want to say something like, '...fresh and clear in this large city,' not, 'in a large city.'
2) 'They encourage people to use bikes...' not, 'The encouragement in using bikes...'
3) ...walking should be utilized. As I said earlier, bicycles...' not, '...walking should be taken into action. As I said earlier. Bicycles...'
Hope this helps you!
I think the biggest environmental issue in my country is degraded forest. Many people cut trees and sell woods illegal. There are still ethnic minority that burning forest to make farming land. The forest resources in my country have been compared to "gold forest and silver sea", but nowadays, the forest area is more smaller than about 30 years ago.
Thank you for sharing, Nguyen! Here are a few suggestions for your writing:
1) '...and sell illegal wood,' not, '...sell woods illegal'.
2) '...minority that burn forest,' not, 'burning'.
3) '...is smaller than...' not, 'more smaller'.
Hope this helps you!
Well I live in India. My my country there is not much tree. There is not green environment. Indian celebrate lot of festival like dipawali which create lots of pollution for the socity. Also people wash cloth in dam it make water polluted. People split everywhere that create huge problem. And I see in my country only very few people do plantation . I think its government responsibility to aware people about how environment is important.
Today's lesson is so powerful. Thanks oli to share such a great lesson. And today I decide to plant one more tree. And create plant balcony.🌱
Thanks for telling us about the environment in your country. Here are a few corrections for your writing:
1) 'My country doesn't have many trees,' not, 'My my country there is not much tree'.
2) 'The environment is not green,' not, ' There is not green environment'.
3) 'Indians celebrate a lot of festivals...' not, 'Indian celebrate lot of festival...'.

Great response, Sima! Thanks for watching!
In my country. Most farm is small and farmer less use machinery, they mainly depend on traditional methods. In my opinion, I think It is worth paying extra to eat organic food because organic food requires time and difficult farming techniques. Moreover, We encourage traditional farming methods as a good way to protect the environment avoid pesticides and herbicides.
Thanks for sharing your response! Here are a few suggestions for you:
1) 'In my country, most farms are small...' not, 'In my country. Most farm is small...'

3) '..environment and avoid pesticides...' not, '...environment avoid pesticides...'

In my hometown there is no formal way of sorting out the garbage. The trash is simply thrown on the ground and garbage pickers which are mostly young children collect the trash. This trash then sold to the scrap dealers who sort the organic and inorganic waste .in my hometown we can recycle the few things, like glass and plastics etc. While the non recyclable waste is left to rot in landfills or dumps.
Nice answer! Here are a few suggestions for you:
1) '...pickers, who are mostly young children, collect the trash,' not, '...pickers which are mostly young children collect the trash'.
2) 'This trash is then sold to...' not, 'This trash then sold to...'.
3) '...we can recycle a few things,' not, 'the few'.

2) '...slow down on the production of clothes, household goods...' not, '...slow down on production of makeing clothes household goods...'.
3) 'factories,' not, 'factorys'.

Part 1:
Generally, I'd say the air quality is not that good because it can still get hazy in winter. But it's much better thaN it was a decade ago. At that time, you'd get thick smog covering the whole city all the year round.
The improvement was achieved by the efforts of the government. They brought in new laws and regulations, restricted the volume of vehicles in the city center, invested more in public transport infrastructure, and moved a lot of heavy industry away from the city.
As far as I'm concerned, vehicle emission is one of the major causes of air pollution, therefore to combat air pollution it is fundamental to reduce the reliance on private cars by using more public transport and replace gasoline-fueled vehicles with zero emission automobiles such as electric ones.
Part 4:
For sure, I think it's indeed a big concern, because climate change can lead to a number of environmental issues such as rising sea levels, regional changes in rainfall patterns, and disruption to THE ecosystem. For example, some regions may experience more rain and snowfall, while others may suffer from more frequent droughts and wildfires. These in turn could reduce crop yields and harm food security.
I can imagine my country WILL have more frequent floods and even loss of some land in the coastline if rising sea levels continue.
Global warming is primarily caused by an increase of fossil fuel burning. Therefore it is essential to reduce carbon emission by using more clean energy such as solar energy, and replacing gasoline-fueled cars with electric ones. One top of that, forest preservation and reforestation programs, which can increase the natural capacity of carbon absorption, would also play an important role in combating this issue.
Thanks for sharing your response about the environment, Li Shen. You used some excellent phrases and grammar. Nice job! Here are a few suggestions for you:
1) '...better than it was...' not, 'that'.
2) '...and disruption to the ecosystem,' not, '...and disruption to ecosystem'.
3) '...my country will have more frequent floods...if rising sea levels continue,' not, '...my country would have more frequent floods...if rising sea continues'.
Hope this is useful for you!

Air quality is really terrible in my city. As it is an industrialists city and mostly companies depends upon wood and coal fires for heating. So the air is hazy as well as smog in winter's.
The local government has taken good initiative by moving industries away from the city .moreover the educational institutes has also been moved outside the city to reduce the traffic pollution. National government should formulate the enviornmental policies to cope with the problem and i believe the most important thing is to plant more trees and prevent deforestation to improve the air quality.
Great response! Thanks for sharing. Here are a few tips for you:
1) '...and mostly companies depend upon...' not, 'depends'.
2) '...as well as smoggy,' not, 'smog'.
3) '...in winters...' not, '...in winter's...'.
Hope this is useful for you!
@@Oxfordonlineenglish1 thank you so much for your cooperation.
The air in Hue city is a little bit bad. The local government advises citizens to stop burning rubbish and use publish vehicles. Changing pepole's consciousness is the best way to reduce air pollution. We sort garbage into two bins: food and recyclable garbage such as paper, plastic, wood... Non-recyclable waste will be transformered to rubbish factories to tackle.
Farms are mostly small and using more traditional methods. I think ew should pay extra to use organic food because it's good for our health and avoiding harmful things to health in the future. It's important to know how our food is produced because we can know what kind of herbicides and pesticides farmers used and how long they were harvested particularly vegetables. Global warming is a big matter of the whole world since it causes lots of disasters over the past decede. It causes floods in rainy seasons and drought in summer and even the weather gets cooler in winter. The best way to deal with climate change is reducing carbon emission and recovering forests in over the world.
Thanks for telling us about your city's environment, Hang! Here are a few suggestions for you:
1) What do you mean by 'publish' vehicles? Similar to 'electric vehicles'?
2) '...waste will be transported to rubbish factories...' not, 'transformered'.
3) '...mostly small and use more traditional methods,' not, 'using'.
Hope this is useful for you!

Burning and burying are two main ways of eliminating waste in our country. However, sometimes, non recyclable garbages sent to landfills without being buried make a big pile of rubbish like a dump.
I think the biggest environment problem is the air pollution.It often get hazy in winter.We can't see far and see each other clearly.I konw it's inevitable with the economy development.But we should pay more attention on the air quality.
Nice! Thanks for sharing. Here are a few suggestions for your writing:

The biggest problem my country faced related to environment is waste. Awareness of people to manage and to start sort their waste is the main challenge. We have a river that announced as the most polluted river in the word and soon probably our sea will have much waste than fish it self.
That's unfortunate, Mohamad. Do you think people are doing anything to help this problem? Thank you for sharing!

You're teaching super nice god bless both of you 😍❤️
From my point of view the air quality in my country is so terrible. Because my country is situated the mountainous area in the south of the country and polluted air is not ventilated. Every year the air quality is getting worse. The main source of population in my country comes from the exhaust from vehicles, the emission from coal-fired power plants, the dust caused by the construction industry and urban planning. I’m not expert about government low related environment. But I think there are many low to regulation air quality but I’m not sure it’s work in practice. In my opinion the government should brought in new law and regulations and it’s should controlled in everyday life. In this lesson I like 3 ideas for reduce air population: restriction of driving of the city center, made it illegal to use wood or coal-fires for heating and moved a lot of heavy industry away from the city.

The air quality in my city is really bad, especially in winters. A lot of people use wood fire for heating. You can often get thick smog covering the whole city.I think the local government must bring in new laws and regulations on driving in the city center, make illegal to use wood fire for heating and move a lot of heavy industry from the city. Also, it must be driven by people`s attitudes. Nowadays there are some companies which are trying to solve the problems.
Thanks for sharing, Tamara. Excellent response! Here are a few suggestions for you:
1) '..center, make it illegal to...' not, 'make illegal'.
2) Use the apostrophe for 'people's' not 'people`s'.
Hope this helps you!
Nice lesson thanks for this lesson 👍👍👍👍
You're welcome, Hodo. Glad you enjoyed the lesson!
@@Oxfordonlineenglish1 yes I really enjoyed the lesson and it's very good useful thanks for this
1.I am worried about global warming. Because it will make the weather so hot, and the victims are us. I think all of us would like to live in a comfortatable environment.
2.If the sea levels rose significantly, some of the residents who live near the coastline, will be affected. The government need to put a lot of money to help the people and to take precautions for the next time.
3.For me, I think we need to reduce the production of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere. The government also need to do something, such as restriction on driving, increase the price of petroleum etc.
Thanks for sharing, Kai Yan. Great response! Here are a few suggestions for your writing:
1) 'If the sea levels rose...residents who live near the coastline would be affected,' not, 'will'.
2) '...carbon dioxide into the atmosphere,' not, 'into'.
3) '...such as restrictions on driving,' not, 'restriction'.
Hope this is useful for you!
@@Oxfordonlineenglish1 Thanks a lot. 😀

Thanks for the support, Sai!
Sir make a video of atleast an hour for English and learning grammar practise
Thanks for the suggestion, Abhishek. We don't quite have an hour-long video but we do have many lessons on grammar! You can see them here: www.oxfordonlineenglish.com/?s=grammar.
I think the best way to reduce air pollution is to move all heavy factors away from the city and to put harsh laws
Good, Sohir. One tip: I think you meant, 'move all big factories away from...' instead of, 'move all heavy factors away from...' Hope this helps you!
Hi. It is pity to say, but in my city we don't sort our garbage. There are only some places for fun, like Zoo, where you can see different bins for recycling. Our waste is usually sent to a landfill or a dump.
Thanks for sharing, Tamara.
@@Oxfordonlineenglish1 Thanks for replying.
I have a question about English.
Why do these verbs have prepositions after them? For instance:
I listen "to" music everyday.
I was looking "at" the tree.
Are they phrasal verbs?
Hi Adonay, no these aren't considered phrasal verbs. We have a few lessons which might help you: www.oxfordonlineenglish.com/prepositions-to-in-at, www.oxfordonlineenglish.com/phrasal-verbs.
Great video. Thanks!
the best way to deal with climate change is to avoid using more water than you need . we should turn down the air conditioning in summer and the heating in winter.we should turn off lights when we leave our room
Nice, Sohir! Thanks for sharing. One tip: Don't forget to capitalize the first letter of your sentences.
