Sample Answer
Why do some people throw garbage on the street?
Honestly, I think it’s just sheer laziness. They don’t feel like looking around for a trash can. But sometimes, even when there’s one right in front of them, they don’t use it. Some people don’t give two cents about the environment or being respectful of their surroundings. They think they can just make a mess wherever they go.

I feel really annoyed when I see people throw garbage on the street. For one, it’s gross; people have to deal with your garbage if you leave it in public. So it’s also super disrespectful to the environment and people around you. I would definitely speak up if I saw it happen in front ofme.
What do you do with garbage when you see it on the street? Do you pick up the garbage?
Whenever I see garbage on the street, I do my best to make sure it goes in the proper place. For instance, if there’s a garbage can nearby, I’ll pick up the trash and put it in. It’s a real pity that in this day and age, people still litter. It’s totally irresponsible and rude to others.
Do you recycle paper and plastic?
Yes, I do! I do my best to make sure all the paper and plastic I use gets recycled. You know, everybody has to do their part to help protect the environment. Generally speaking, recycling is really easy to do. It doesn’t take much effort, and it works wonders for your conscience too.
What do you do to protect your city’s environment? Have you participated in any activities related to environmental protection?
I try to be as helpful as I can when it comes to protecting my city’s environment. I always recycle and I make sure to use public transportation whenever I can. I’ve also participated in some fundraisers that raise money for the environment. I think it’s important for everyone to do their share.
