Activity 5: Work in pairs. Matching the solution with the right reason. Make a conversation.

Solution

Reason

1. Reuse and recycle glass, plastic, paper and other product


2. Reduce use of paper products

a. This helps to reduce the amount of emissions from the burning of
1-

petrol in vehicles

2-

b. This helps to save trees and forest since these products are made from
wood

3. Cut down on energy use: use LED light bulbs and
unplug unused electronic devices

c. These are more efficient, longer lasting and use much less electricity.
3-

4. Use green methods of transport: ride a bicycle or just

Even when turned off, electronic devices still use energy

d. They absorb carbon dioxide and give off oxygen. A single tree can

walk

4-

absorb about one ton of carbon dioxide in its lifetime


5. Plant trees or plants wherever they can grow
