Part 4: Writing
English:
If I were a world leader, I would take strong actions to fight global warming. First, I would
invest in renewable energy like solar and wind power. If countries worked together, we
would reduce pollution and protect the planet. I would also create international programs
to recycle and save water. If people stopped using so much plastic, the oceans would be
cleaner. I would encourage education because if students learn about climate change, they
will become more responsible citizens. If industries changed their habits, pollution would
decrease. Finally, I would pass laws to protect forests, because if we lose them, biodiversity
will disappear.
Español:
Si yo fuera un líder mundial, tomaría acciones fuertes para luchar contra el calentamiento
global. Primero, invertiría en energías renovables como la solar y la eólica. Si los países
trabajaran juntos, reduciríamos la contaminación y protegeríamos el planeta. También
crearía programas internacionales para reciclar y ahorrar agua. Si las personas dejaran de
usar tanto plástico, los océanos estarían más limpios. Fomentaría la educación porque si los
estudiantes aprenden sobre el cambio climático, serán ciudadanos más responsables. Si las
industrias cambiaran sus hábitos, la contaminación disminuiría. Finalmente, aprobaría leyes
para proteger los bosques, porque si los perdemos, la biodiversidad desaparecerá.
