09. Looking back and thinking ahead

Asked by: Colegio America | Gymnasium Linde

a) Imagine it would be possible to turn back the clock a hundred years. What do you think we would do differently?

b) We are naturally not able to turn the clock back, but we can learn from the past. What kind of information does the past reveal?

a) - Respect our planet more

- Only use renewable energy

- Refuse vehicles that produce CO2

- Educate children more about the protection of the climate

- We wouldn't cut down trees, but plant alot

b) The past reveals that we didn't take enough care of our planet. We only thought about our

own good. We didn't realize that we were starting to destroy our earth.

It shows us that we must change.

10. In order to get to know you a little better, a few questions now follow that at first glance have nothing to do with the topic of climate change.

Asked by: Colegio America | Gymnasium Linde

a) If you were able to freely choose, which kind of life you woul like to lead – what would this involve?

b) Do you have the feeling you are free to choose what the real prospects of your future life will be?

c) If you answer no, what do you think is lacking and therefore negatively influencing your personal decisions for the future?

a)My personal wish would be to have a life without things you HAVE to do. If there were only things you like to do. But with time it could be boring to chill out the whole time. One day you have to do something, otherwise you will crack! So, my real wish would be to have a job I like and where I earn a lot of money.

b)I think we really have god chances in our country to form our future in our preffered direction. So, my answer is Yes.

11. Things you enjoy doing

Asked by: Colegio America | Gymnasium Linde

a) What kind of things do you really enjoy doing?

b) How often can you do the things you really enjoy? (And, why are you not able to do them all the time?)

I really like to go swimming in the lake or in the ocean. It makes me happy and it gives me a feeling of freedom.

In general I like to go to beautiful places and get to know another county in my holidays.

I always find someting to do I like. But for example going swimming in the lake or in the ocean isn’t always possible for me. Because in winter, the lake is much too cold and unfourtunately we don’t have an ocean in Switzerland. To swim in the ocean we must fly to another country, which is sometimes difficult. There is also a positive point about that, because if we don’t fly in airplanes we don’t produce so much CO2, which affects the climate. ☺

We don't know much about Peru. But we are very impressed that your county is so multifaceted. You have glaciers, rainforest, and the sea. We only have glaciers, but much of them.xD. Can you give us more informations? We would like to go there for a holiday.

13. Our question:

Asked by: Colegio America | Gymnasium Linde

Which is the most representative animal and plant in oyur country? Could you describe them?

We don't know if you heard that, but we are very famous for our cows. They are spotted and fat. They give a lot of milk. Our food contains a lot of milk because of that. For ex. chocolate, yoghurts and a lot of cheese.

sorry we continue later.xD

14. Our question:

Asked by: Colegio America | Gymnasium Linde

In our country there are only two seasons, summer and winter, as a consequence of the global warming, is it the same in your country?

In Switzerland there are still 4 seasons. But in the last couple of years the weather has changed. In 2007 February it was sunny spring weather instead of cold. Later in April it snowed. Our weather is crazy. :D From year to year it snows less.
