Environmental Hearing in Ecological Dilemma Town
Date: February 16, 2025
Location: Town Hall, Ecological Dilemma Town
Mayor: Good morning, everyone. Welcome to the hearing. Our town has pollution problems. We need to find ways to solve these problems. Today, we will hear from different people. Thank you for coming.
Resident: I live near the river. The river was clean before, but now it’s dirty. The air is bad, and my kids cough a lot. We need to clean the river and the air. We should recycle more and stop littering.
Government Official: Thank you. The government is working on this. We are cleaning the river and building a new waste plant. We are also making factories follow stricter rules. We will keep working to make our town better.
Business Representative: We know businesses need to be changed. We are using cleaner machines and following the new rules. I think we should have more recycling bins in our town.
Mayor: Thank you for your suggestions. Let’s discuss how we can put these ideas into action. Who would like to start?
Resident: We can organize a river clean-up day. Everyone in the town can help pick up trash from the riverbanks（河岸）.
Government Official: We should talk to the factory owners and ask them to use clean energy, like solar power or wind power.
Business Representative: We can start a recycling program at school and teach our families how to recycle at home.
