Unit 6 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

Interviewer: Excuse me. Good afternoon. May name is Jonathan Adams and I’m from Green World magazine. We are conducting a survey about recycling. Would each of you like to share your views on the matter?

Speaker 1, 2, 3: Yes, of course/ Sure / Alright.

Interviewer: Thank you. Um, the first question is “Do you recycle most of your household waste?

Speaker 1 (woman): Well to be perfectly honest, I don’t recycle at all. I can’t be bothered.

Interviewer: And you, sir?

Speaker 2 (man): Well, not really. I only recycle paper. The recycling center for glass and aluminium is too far away from my house.

Interviewer: And what about you, miss?

Speaker 3 (teenage girl): At home we recycle just about everything. We’ve learned to become quite environmentally aware – thanks to our community.

Interviewer: Thanks. Now question 2 “Do you think recycling is too expensive and time consuming?”

Speaker 1 (woman): Yes, I do. I think it’s a waste of time without really helping the environment. I mean, a lot of recycled products are quite expensive, anyway.

Speaker 2 (man): Oh, I don’t agree. Recycling is quick and cheap, not to mention the fact that it saves a lot of energy, too.

Speaker 3 (teenager girl): I absolutely agree. Not only does it save energy, but it also reduces a lot of waste safely.
