4. habits
Script:
Per decade since 1981, Earth's temperature has risen 0.18 degrees Celsius.
This number may seem small to some people, but scientists know how
disastrous this increase has been for our environment. This is called global
warming and it is primarily caused by human activities, especially burning
fossil fuels. Across the globe, we see the consequences such as natural
disasters, ice melting and rising sea levels…

However, the good news is that people’s opinion on this issue is changing.
With more scientific evidence and growing public support, global warming
has become a top issue for many countries and governments. We’re adopting
more policies that help protect the environment and cut down on greenhouse
gasses.

Title: RECYCLING PROGRAMME
Recycling reduces our carbon footprint and helps protect our natural
resources. However, the recycling system at our school is outdated and trash
collected at our school usually ends up in landfills.
As part of this programme, recycling bins will be placed in classrooms and the
number of trash bins around the campus should also increase. Once a
month, Green Club will organise a recycling event where students can help
separate recyclable materials.
I hope to receive your approval on this and start the programme as soon as
possible.
