Question

one and a half a minute speech on environment

Answer 1

At first, I wish a very warm good morning to all of you present in this meeting. I welcome everybody with much pleasure to participate here. Today we are gathering here to celebrate the World environment day. At first, I am going to say something about the World environment day.World environment day is celebrated on 5th June every year. Its aim is to raise global awareness about our environment. Do you know when the World environment day has begun? In the year 1972, the United Nations Conference on the Human environment was held from 5th June to 16th June. After that, every year on 5th June, it has been hosted by different countries of the world with different theme.In 2011, our country is the global host of world environment day. As I have said that this year’s theme is “green economy”, does anyone know what is this ‘green economy?” It is an economic development program where the environmental risks are going to be reduced. Now, economy is also considered as a component of the eco system. The businessmen understand that the future of business depends on the green world. The profits and goodwill be reaped by them in the long run.I will not make it a lengthy speech. I want to say one thing on this great day that try to plant trees as much as you can, because we depend on tree fully. Try to plant at least one tree in any special occasion like on your birthday, anniversary etc.At last, I want to thank all of you once again to honor me as a guest in this prestigious meeting.
Thank you all.

  Please pick the points you like if the following speech is long for the time limit you have.

   Our Environment is an essential part of our life.  It is the source for us to live and to do any of our actions such as eating, playing, working, enjoying, walking, breathing, hearing and drinking.  Environment is our surroundings that includes water, air, locality, trees, lands, mountains, living organisms like animals, birds and insects, natural resources like minerals, fuels etc.  Quality of our life depends undoubtedly on the quality of our environment.

    Long ago, people lived not causing harm to the environment.  But we are degrading the environment and indirectly harming ourselves.  Ecological system balance and its recycling phenomena are tampered with.  Power of technology and science enabled exploitation of environment for selfish and indiscriminate uses resulting in the following:

1.    Deforestation
2.    Depletion of water under surface of earth
3.    Extinction of some species, Loss of biodiversity
4.    Air pollution (greenhouse gases), drinking water pollution,
           river pollution by mixing poisonous chemicals
5.    Global warming
6.    Depletion of ozone layer
7.    Depletion of oil and gas reserves and natural resources like minerals.

   As we know the causes, the steps to take protective measures are obvious.  Save trees, save water, save fuels, use fuel wisely, invent green technologies and spread awareness among people.  Educate others on the serious consequences.  Stop pollution of air and water bodies.  Stop production of harmful plastics and polythenes.  Population control is also needed as reduction in population reduces the depletion of resources.
 
    We have to adapt to the environment instead of adapting the environment to our selfish needs.  We have to follow regenerative and recycling mechanisms.  Otherwise, existence of humanity will become a question. People will suffer with a lot of diseases. Famines and cyclones will become more frequent. Rains will become very untimely and damaging instead of helping agriculture.

    Action related to environment needs to be done together by governments of various countries and the United Nations Organization, at a global level. Long term planning and monitoring of actions of private corporations is needed.

         I am for the Environment  and  you with me ?
