Paul: |
Excuse me. Would you like to make a
contribution to
Greener World? |
Sylvia: |
Sure. What are you working on right now? |
Paul: |
Well, we're developing educational programs
for schools. We want to show children how the oceans are being
polluted by industrial waste. And we want to tell them about how
fish supplies have been depleted through overfishing. |
Sylvia: |
I think what you're doing is terrific. I
wish I could do more to help. |
Paul: |
So, have you ever thought about becoming a
member of
Greener World? |
Sylvia: |
No, but tell me a little more about it. |
Paul: |
We've been active in this area for almost
five years now. Are you aware of some of our other local
projects? |
Sylvia: |
No, I don't think I am. |
Paul: |
Well, one of the things we've been doing is
planting trees. We have a group of volunteers involved in
several tree-planting projects in different parts of the city.
We're trying to get as many trees planted as possible to help
clean the air and also to help lower the temperature during the
summer. |
Sylvia: |
That sounds smart. |
Paul: |
Uh-huh. We've also placed over 50 recycling
bins around the city so that people can drop off things for
recycling – cans, bottles, plastic bags, and newspapers. Last
year we raised over $100,000 through recycling. |
Sylvia: |
That's fantastic. I'd love to get involved
in
Greener World. Where do I sign? |
