We live on the Earth. It is very, very  big and  beautiful. There are a lot of rivers, lakes, seas, forests, fields and mountains on it. The Earth is full of different animals, birds and fish. But why is it crying?

One day the earth woke up, said
"Boy I feel half dead
Somebody's turning up the poison
And it's getting in my head
Sometimes I wish my guests
would move away somewhere
Yes I'm burning up all over
I can't even breathe the air
Save me now, save me now, save me now come on and
Save me now, save me now, save me now
One day the earth woke up, said
"Boy it's getting hot
And remember all those trees I had
Well now there ain't a lot
And my eyes kept slowly trickling
Down to where the party's at
And if everybody's going there well
That's the end of that"

I’m your environment. I’m everything around you - clean water to drink, fresh air to breathe and healthy food to eat. You can‘t live without plants and animals. They make the soil, clean water and give food. But people forget about it.

I used to see the stars at night.

I used to hear the birds.

I used to feel the warmth of the sun.

I used to smell the springtime flowers. And sing so happily.

I used to sing a song about  the beauty of the world.

It was a long, long time ago, I used to sing a song.

Before the black smoke filled the sky,

I used to sing a song.

I used to sing a song about  the beauty of the world.

Did you use to see the stars shining in the night?

Did you use to hear the birds and feel the sun?

Did you use to smell the flowers?

Their colours were so bright.

I used to sing a song about  the beauty of the world.

I am your air. I give oxygen and you can live. But I’m very polluted now. Factories and cars pollute me. Nuclear power stations make me dangerous for lives.

Clean air-I can’t breathe now,

Tall trees- people cut them down.

Green hills – people build roads.

Where they go, people don’t know.

Blue sky – now it’s black.

Good rain – they’ve made it bad.

Green hills – they build roads.

Where they go, they don’t know.

I’m the rain. Look at me ! I’m not fresh and clean. Now my name is Acid Rain. I harm lakes, rivers, seas, plants and animals.

-Исполнение песни группы Creedence « Have you ever seen the rain?»

I’m the soil. People use chemicals and pollute me. Every day they dump rubbish. I’m a big dump now.

Look at this table and listen to approximate decomposition times in a landfill.

 traffic ticket- 1 month/

 banana peel- 6 months/

 wool sock- 1 year/ wooden stakes- 4 years/  

painted wooden stake- 13 years/

 tin cans- 100 years/ aluminum cans and plastic bottles- 500 years /

glass containers- never.

I’m the water. I’m very important for life. But many rivers, lakes and seas are poisoned. They are used for dumping industrial and nuclear waste. A lot of fish and reptiles die.

I’m  Lake Baikal. I’m the deepest  lake on the Earth. I’m very beautiful, but now I’m in danger. My water is polluted. It can kill fish, reptiles, animals and plants.

Lake Baikal, called "the Pearl of Siberia" is the world's oldest and depeest lake. Located in the south of the Russian region of Siberia, between Irkutsk Oblast to the northwest and the Buryat Republic to the southeast, it is the richest  freshwater lake in the world. Baikal is home to more than 1,700 species of plants and animals. A lot of tourists visit this wonderful place but it is in danger now because of factories.

Once there were green fields kissed by the sun,

Once there were valleys where rivers used to run,

Once there was blue sky with white clouds high above,

Once they were part of an everlasting love.

Green fields are gone now, parched by the sun,

Gone from the valleys where rivers used to run,

Gone with the cold wind that swept into my heart,

Gone with the lovers who let their dreams depart.

-Исполнение песни  Крис  Ри «The road to hell»

I’m the forest. I’m home of animals, birds , trees and plants. But now I’m in danger  too. Every year a lot of trees are cut down and burnt in fire. Many animals and birds die out.

All woods are homes for animals,

So you must behave like guests.

You only look and never touch

The birds and rabbits’ nests.

I’m a dodo. You have never seen me. Many years ago people killed all dodos. Nowadays  you can see dodos only in the pictures.

I’m a passenger pigeon. You have never seen me. The last passenger pigeons were killed in 1914.

You know the Red Book has the list of endangered animals,birds and plants.

The first Red Book appeared in 1966.It was the great work of scientists all over the world.

In Russia the book appeared in 1983.Now many  different countries have this important book.

Its title is symbolistic, it is the sign of danger.The colours of pages are symbolistic too. The black pages have extinct species, the red-endangered, the yellow- alive, the green- little-studied, the white- unstudied.

Let’s read some pages of the Red Book.

An okapi is one of the animals Europeans have known only since 1901.It was very well known to people living in Zaire.It is a beautiful big animal like a giraffe without a long neck. People from Europe wanted to hunt them and very soon a lot of the animals were killed. But  not all of them died. Some animals live in zооs and in forests nowadays.

The golden lion tamarin comes from Brazil’s forest near the sea. The forest there is disappearing fast. People could easily catch these animals and sell in pet shops. There were only a few left in the rainforest.

Indian tigers and African elephants are in danger too. There are few these animals on the Earth now because of hunting. And the question is : Have these animals got a future?

 “Little bird, little bird, come to me!

I have a pretty cage you can see;

Many bright  flowers I’ll bring to you,

And fresh, ripe cherries, all wet with dew.”

“Thanks, little girl, for all your care,

But I dearly love the clear, cool air;

And my  cosy little nest in the old oak – tree

Is better than your pretty cage for me.”

“Little bird, little bird, where will you go

When all the fields are covered with snow?

The ice covers the old oak – tree;

Little bird, little bird, stay with me!”

“No, little girl, away I’ll fly

To greener  fields and a warmer sky;

When spring comes back with cheerful rain,

My joyful song you will hear again.”

So, the problem now is to protect life on the Earth, to save our nature. That’s why April 22 is Earth Day. A lot of people try to protect our environment. There are some ecological organizations which want to help our nature.

Our Earth is so wonderful and our life is so beautiful! Don’t forget about it!

Don’t kill the world!

Don’t  let  the Earth down!

Do not destroy the ground!

Don’t kill the world!

Don’t kill the world!

Don’t  let  the Earth down!

Help her  to survive! Don’t kill the world!

-Исполнение песни группы Ace of base   «Beautiful life »

Walk or use a bicycle instead of going by car.

Keep environment clean.

Save water, gas, energy.

Plant more trees.

Feed birds in winter and help them to survive in the cold.

Clear rubbish from lakes and rivers.

Recycle used material as metal, bottles and paper.

 It’s a wonderful world.

I see trees of green, red roses too
I watch them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

I hear babies cry, I watch them grow
They'll learn much more, than I'll ever know
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

The colours of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of the people going by
I see friends shaking hands, saying, "How do you do?"
They're  really  saying, "I love you"
