Our Planet

Nature vocabulary is beautiful but also urgent. We talk about "landscapes," "wildlife," and "ecosystems," but also "pollution," "waste," and "climate change."

Describing Nature "The mountain peak," "the flowing river," "the dense forest." Using adjectives makes your stories come alive. "It was breathtaking" is a strong phrase for beautiful scenery.

Going Green "Recycling," "Reusable," "Sustainable," "Carbon Footprint." These are buzzwords of the 21st century. Discussing how you try to save the planet (e.g., "I don't use plastic straws") is a common way to signal your values.

Animals From pets ("domesticated") to "wildlife" ("endangered species"). Whether you are a "cat person" or a "dog person" says something about your personality!
