The destruction of the ozone layer
The problem
In our atmosphere there is a layer that contains ozone.This is the ozone layrer which is important for our life.Why is it important?The ozone prevents the harmful UV rays from reaching the ground.Unfortunately for many years people used to use products with CFCs in them.CFCs are dangerous because they destroy the ozone.The effect is that harmful UV rays are reaching the ground and damage our eyes and skin.
The cause
The cause is the destruction of the ozone layer.This is because of the CFCs.The products that contain CFCs are the old air conditioners and fridges and the spray cans
The solution
One solution is to find some other chemicals to replace CFCs.So we have to recycle our old fridges and air conditioners.Fortunately there are some changes in the law shich forbid the use of spray cans with CFCs in them.

Deforestation
Nobody knows exactly how much of the world's rainforests have already been destroyed and continue to be,each year.
In order to say rainforests,we need to know why they are being destroyed.
The immediate causes of rainforest destruction are clear.The main cause is agriculture and in drier areas,fuelwood collection.Another cause is logging.Commercial logging companies cut down mature trees that have been selected for their timper.The companies defend themselves by saying that the forests regrow naturally and in time.Of course that is not true.Other problems for the environment is that plants and animals become extinct and the trees can't produce the oxygen we need.
The obvious solution is to stop destroying rainforests.Of course,that is much easier to say than to do it.All the people who care about that,have to convince the governments to protect rainforests.

The hole in the ozone layer
All people know about the hole in the ozone layer.The hole was discovered in 1970 by scientists.Scientists discovered what caused the problem. There were some gases in some products. These are called CFCs. CFCs are produced by old fridges, air conditioners and spray cans. Today there aren't CFCs anymore.
The ozone layer is between about 15 and 30 kilometres above the ground. The ozone layer prevents ultraviolet rays from featcing the sun. These rays are very dangerous for the eyes and skin, so we can understand how important the ozone layer is to the people.
HOW I STARTED RECYCLING?
In the past the children had thrown away their rubbish on the floo at school. I decided to start recycling at school. At first i decided to do a project about the environment. After we `d finished the project on the environment at school, i knew a had th start recycling.
I decided to recycle because we can save energy. Also now we can thrw away plastik, paper ang glass in the recycling bins.
All this procedure is veru difficult, because there isn `t enough money to buy a lats at recycling bins.
most childrennow recycle and the school is clean. Now all the children and teathers are very happy.

Put on a play
If you want something fun to do in the evenings, why not put on a play with your friends?It's great fun and it is very easy!
You have to choose the type of play you want,for example rock or pop.We usually write own plays.They're usually rock.When you know what part you playing it's time to decide who will play the most difficult part.
It's a good idea to have regular rehearsals.We rehears three times a week.It takes time for people to understand the notes.Ask all the singers to find their own costumes.
When you're ready,invite your friends and family to come and watch the play.You don't need a school to do that.Someone's living room is fine.Have fun,and good luck with the concert!

''THE GLOBAL WARMING''
The global warming is a very serious problem for our planet, because when the ice melts, the sea level will go up.
The problem start, when in the past one storm cut down the biggest iceberg in the word. Then the scientists built a meteorological station on the iceberg and then they understood that the sea level was going up.
One of the solutions is to find some ways to save energy. Another way is to build some dams on the coastal of cities.
