Sample Answer: 1
Well, if I have to talk about a polluted place I’ve been to, it would be Ho Chi Minh City. It’s located in the Southern part of Vietnam.
I’ve been living here for around 2 years. When I first came here, I was so surprised at how polluted the city is. It’s so different from my hometown which is a green and clean rural area. There are many kinds of pollution here: air pollution, water pollution, and even noise pollution. There are so many vehicles on the streets and they make noises and emit fumes all the time. It was especially terrible traveling on the street during peak hours. Besides, it’s easy to see trash in rivers and lakes because some people just throw their waste into these community water sources without any awareness of the damage to the surrounding environment. It’s even worse that some factories also dump dirty water and other waste directly into rivers so many of them are black and smelly. I think pollution affects people’s lives in a negative way.
Air pollution can cause serious respiratory diseases such as asthma or lung cancer. Water is polluted so people may face water scarcity in the future and the noise can drive people crazy because it’s really annoying and distracting. Many animals living in water are also affected, too. They are losing their habitats or food source since the water is contaminated. Some of them may become extinct if we do not take action now. I hope the government will have some kinds of campaigns or TV shows to raise people’s awareness of protecting the environment and plant more trees in the city to improve air quality
IELTS Speaking Part 3: Follow-up Questions
1. What kinds of pollution are serious in your country?
Well, all kinds of pollution like air, water, soil, and noise are serious in my country. However, due to traffic and factories, air pollution is increasing at an alarming rate.
2. What can individuals do to protect our environment?
Yes, they are responsible for pollution. No one realizes their duties toward nature and uses those things which pollute the environment. People should reduce the usage of private vehicles, plastic, and many other things that destroy nature and save the environment.
4. Why is there a need to involve the government in environmental protection?
There is a need to involve the government in environmental protection because only the government can make the strict rules which people have to follow if they do not do it then they have to pay a hefty amount as a fine.
