2. Imagine that you could interview an animal or plant. What do you think it would have to say about how people treat the environment.

Many people know that the nature is like a home for animals and plants. But they don't protect this "home". They didn't think that one day the environment could disappear definitively. I am sure if an animal or a plant could talk, it would have many things to say about how people treat the environment. An animal would say that it is in danger to disappear, because the man and the man chase it pollutes the nature, its home. Plants are in danger to be polluted, too.
The animals and plants help the man, but him doesn't value this help.
Imagine how could be a world without animals and plants. For this reason we, children of today, must care for our world.

"Mr. Bear, what could you say about your forest?"
"My forest is my home, but now I must be sincere and say I don't feel at home here any more."
"Why?"
"Because people cut a lot of trees and didn't plant new ones."
"What about your den?"
"I tried to make my den more comfortable for me and my cubs but when we go
out for food, we find the river very dirty and almost without fish."
"What do you think about what people should do?"
"People should take care of the environment and keep the nature clean and healthy."
"Thank you for the interview!"
"You are welcome!"

Last Sunday I went for a picnic in the forest. There I met a squirrel and interviewed it.
"Where do you live?"
"I live in the forest."
"Why do you like to live there?"
"Because forests are home to many animals and the trees are beautiful and also bring rain."
"Do you see people in the forest in summer?"
Yes, of course, they come here every Sunday."
"How do people treat the environment?"
"They pollutes it. When they leave the forest they leave behind garbage: empty bottles of Fanta, cans of Coke, vegetables and bones. Garbage pollutes all nature. The soil is polluted by waste, too."
I still think of the red squirrel which I saw last summer, and I  am not happy!

"Hello, monkey! How are you? Why are you looking at me so unhappily?"
"I am very sad, I am here in this cage running and running round this little tree."
"Can you speak?!"
"Yes, I can. A lot of people come here and look at me, talk to me and I have learnt to speak. But I don't like to stay here, inside eating my bananas, playing with my tail, climbing up and down. The cage and everybody looks at me and laughs at me. I miss my forest, my friends, my happiness."
"How sad! I am very sorry for you! What can I do for you?"
"Say to people to love animals in their own places, not in cages at the zoo. I feel like a thief, like a criminal. I don't like such a life! I want to be with my family. Can you help me?"
"I promise I shall do all my best!"
