Lesson

Pre-reading question: - What problems do people have when it is very hot? - What do you do when itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hot? 2. Read and complete the science magazine article with the bold words from the diagram? SB Page 29

This week, Mr Mohsen, a science teacher, explains global warming to us. The atmosphere is the air around the earth. This contains different gases. One of these is carbon dioxide. Although it is a natural gas, it can also be caused by pollution. Pollution from cars and factories produces extra carbon dioxide. This is a problem. If there is too much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, the temperature on the earth will increase. This is called global warming. If the earth gets hotter, the ice in the Arctic and Antarctica will melt more quickly. The sea will get higher and this will cause floods. Dry places will become deserts. If these places become deserts, crops will not be able to grow. 192

Our earth

UNIT

If we don’t have crops for food, it will become very difficult for us to live. So what can we do about the problem? First, we need to plant more trees, because these breathe in carbon dioxide. We are cutting down too many trees. We also need to find fuels that cause less pollution.

Post-reading questions 3 Choose the correct answer: 1. Carbon dioxide is (a natural / an unnatural) gas. 2. Global warming happens when the earth gets too (hot / cold). 3. Global warming (can / can’t) cause floods. 4. With global warming, dry places will become (wetter / drier). 5. Cutting down a lot of trees ( is / isn’t ) good for the environment.

If people drink it, they will get sick. People living next to a building site where there is too much noise can become sick as they cannot sleep.

Most of us know that global warming is one of the biggest problems for our world. Most global warming is caused when we burn fuel for energy. So if we save energy, we’ll also help to stop global warming. Try to save energy at home. About one sixth of the energy we use is to heat water, so try to use less hot water. When we wash our clothes, it’s better to use

Our earth

UNIT

warm water instead of very hot water. Also, try to have shorter showers. Most showers take about eight minutes. In a threeminute shower, more than half the energy is saved. Another thing people can do to help the environment is to plant trees. As you know, trees breathe in carbon dioxide. We need more trees. About two percent of the earth has rainforests, but people are cutting down trees in rainforests every day. Two thirds of the earth’s rainforests are not there anymore. And it’s not just rainforests that are in danger. We are cutting down trees and plants all over the world, even in Egypt. So, why don’t we plan a day to plant trees!

15 EYE ON EGYPT

Pre-reading question: - What is desertification? - Do you think that desertification will be worse in the future? Why? / Why not?

Lesson

SB Page ??

DESERTIFICATION Plants and trees are good for farmers. Their roots help to keep water in the soil. So what happens if we do not have trees or plants? ●

I f we cut down the plants and trees (for example to build houses or to keep animals), the soil will become drier. Wind and rain can carry the soil away. If this continues for a long time, desertification happens. This means that the area becomes a desert.

●

A bout 16 percent of the world’s people live with the problem of desertification. To help stop it, farmers around the world are planting more trees in dry areas.

●

In the Luxor area, farmers are helping to stop desertification by growing plants called Jatropha. These plants have big green leaves and they can grow in very dry soil. They are very easy to grow. If a piece of a plant is cut off and put into the soil, a new plant grows.

●

The seeds of the plants contain oil. It can be used as a fuel which causes less pollution than petrol. In this way, the Jatropha plant protects the environment, as well as the soil.
