Understanding the Purpose of Environmental Initiatives Speech
Listen to the following conversation between a student named Alex and a campus sustainability coordinator, Ms. Green:
Alex: Hi Ms. Green, I’ve heard a lot about the new environmental initiatives on campus. Can you tell me more about them?
Ms. Green: Certainly, Alex! We’ve recently implemented a comprehensive recycling program and introduced a 'green' committee. Our goal is to reduce waste and promote sustainable practices among students and faculty.
Alex: That sounds great! How can students get involved?
Ms. Green: We welcome everyone to join our committee meetings, which happen every Thursday at 5 PM in the student center. Additionally, we’re looking for volunteers to help with our upcoming campus clean-up event next month.
Alex: I would love to participate! Is there a way to sign up?
Ms. Green: Yes! You can sign up on our website, and we’ll also have sign-up sheets at the next campus event. Every bit of help makes a huge difference!
Alex: Thanks for all this information!
Ms. Green: Anytime, Alex! Together we can all contribute to a healthier planet.
