  Hello, hello, dear listener, and welcome into IELTS speaking part two.

• 00:09

  Describe a person you know who is doing something to protect the environment.

• 00:14

  You should say who this person is, what this person is doing to protect the environment,

• 00:19

  how easy or difficult it is for him or her to do this, and explain

• 00:24

  how you feel about what this person is doing to protect the environment.

• 00:31

  Right.

• 00:31

  Rory, give us your story.

• 00:42

  Well, there are a lot of people like this that I know,

• 00:45

  but the one who stands out the most right now is probably David Attenborough,

• 00:48

  who is a famous documentarian and writer from the UK.

• 00:53

  When it comes to who exactly he is, aside from what I mentioned already,

• 00:57

  he's been a presenter of numerous programs on the BBC and I think other channels actually for decades now.

• 01:04

  Actually, I think he must be about 100 years old or something like that.

• 01:07

  I also suspect he's been honored by a lot of people and organizations, including the Queen and the King.

• 01:14

  With regards to what he's been doing to protect the environment, well,

• 01:17

  he certainly uses his documentaries to draw attention to various endangered species and the habitats they live in.

• 01:24

  And that kind of awareness raising goes a long way towards encouraging people to look after the planet

• 01:30

  and the local flora and fauna more generally.

• 01:34

  I'm not 100% sure, but I think he's also been speaking out at various climate change conferences

• 01:41

  and on panels to try and underscore the points being made in his documentaries.
