The Next Global Threat: Climate Change and the Future of Work’.

Practice Recording

Emily:
Climate change is another threat after the outbreak of the recent pandemic. This highly affects human’s life as extreme weather happens more often than ever. Extremely hot weather and furious flooding caused millions of people to lose their lives and their homes.


Louis:
People believe that one of the biggest reasons for climate change is the human lifestyle in the modern world. We consume the resources from our planet earth more than any period of human history.


Katy:
One of the most feasible solutions that could reduce the threat is to change the living style of the people. Imposing more limitations on consuming particular resources like plastic bottles, electronic devices such mobile phones, or high-energy-consumption vehicles.


Karl:
Besides, we should encourage people to consume less and keep a simple lifestyle. Even in the short run, this may cause an economy slow-down. However the benefit could definitely outrun what we might lose in the long run. Stopping the sources that caused climate change could reduce the threat effectively. Let’s work together.

Students' work

When we use electricity generated from coal, we indirectly cause greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, we can use solar power at home, or we can change the electricity supplier to a company that provides renewable energy without generating greenhouse gases.

 

Since the 1800s ,human activities have been the main driver of climate change. There are 5 causes of climate change ,which they are fossil fuels ,deforestation ,increasing livestock farming ,fertilisers containing nitrogen and fluorinated gases .
Firstly, I think the world have strict regulations on gases emission, especially to the factories, through environmental organization.
Secondly, I think the governments of every country and region should pass laws to households to avoid resources wastage, such as water and electricity.
