Q: How can we protect the environment?

A: Being ordinary citizens, I believe we can do a lot. First of all, we must strictly abide ...... environmental laws. We can practice recycling, save electricity as much as we can, avoid wasting water, minimize the use of cars, and many more. These things I’ve mentioned are the little things that we ordinary citizens can do, however, when everyone is doing all of these things, I’m pretty sure that the current environmental condition will significantly improve.

Q: Is there education about environmental protection at school?

A: Yes, back when I was a student, we had one curriculum about science and the environment which taught us the importance of environmental conservation and preservation. To be honest, I found it boring since I didn’t have a clear understanding of the value of it. I’m glad that I’ve exposed myself to certain environmental organizations as it helped me ............. my mind. I just hope that schools these days realistically teach their students about environmental protection.
