WHAT CAN WE DO ABOUT GLOBAL WARMING?
Dear Earth Care,
I am doing a project on behalf of① my school about global warming. Sometimes I feel that individuals② can have little effect on③ such huge environmental problems. However, I still think people should advocate④ improvements in the way we use energy today. As I'm not sure where to start with⑤ my project, I would appreciate any suggestions you may have.
Thank you!

关于全球变暖,我们能做些什么呢?
亲爱的"关爱地球"组织:
我正在代表学校做一项关于全球变暖的课题研究。有时候我觉得,像这样巨大的环境问题,个人是起不了什么作用的。然而我仍认为人们应该支持改善当今能源消耗的方式。由于我不清楚我该从哪里着手开始我的研究,我将感谢任何你们给予的建议。
谢谢!
