a) Ask ten people what they think about:

 

1.The climate change

2.The possible consequences for your country - and take note of the answers.

 

b) What do yout think about these answers?

In conclusion we can affirm that this problem of the " global warming " this one affecting all the live beings who live inhabit in our planet. At present already the consequences are seen, such as droughts, floods, etc.

 

Many people in our community don't know many things about what climate change is, but have seen and/or heard about it's consequences. For example, in our city it is very common to experience air pollution in our streets. Also littering is a very big problem. You may think that we are talking about few paper strips in one avenue, but the true is that there are big amounts, like small dunes, of trash. Some places las Abancay or Caquetá Avenue have this problem.

 

Another thing people brought in mind is water pollution. They all had in mind Rimac river, wich goes through our city. This river has its beginning nearby the Andes, but as it get closer to the city, it gets more polluted, mainly because of house wastes (cleaning chemicals, plastic bag, remains of food, dead animals, etc.). It's such a shame to have this river like this. And it's not bein treated because it passes through some poor districts and they don't have enough bufget for this. Still, some people think that the ministry of environment should take care of it.

 

We live every day the consequences of this problems. People that live in the slums located by the river have diseases... which are increased because of the poverty they live in. Also, the smell garbage generates is awful, it brings many insects (like flies) to the aire and is a risk for food sellinf (for example, Caquetá Avenue has one of the biggest food selling markets in Lima).

c) What priority have these reports about climate change been given in the newspapers in your country?

It seems to us that generally she is enough, because normally there are articles no related to the climatic change that appear in first flat one or are finally being from importance for the readers. The articles on the climatic change already are in little himself, being more difficult to find in a newspaper.

In addition these articles usually are small and they put in secondary sections of the newspaper like the news articles, single that these last ones usually are more extensive, as it were it the case of the warning on “the Hour of the Planet”.

 

d) What holder called your attention and impressed more to you? So that?

It made an impression to us plus a holder who said “climatic Change will increase to the oceanic zones deads, according to study”, because it makes us think that the most serious effects of the climatic change already are close and that the planet is dying “literally” at the moment.

 

e) What holder you would give him to an article on the climatic change in your country?

“Climatic Change, hour of change”
