Going Green focuses on contemporary threats to the environment and steps each individual can take to reduce global warming and environmental degradation, even if the steps seem small and unimportant. Issues include air pollution, trash disposal, the overuse of water bottles, buying locally, and electricity consumption. An audio CD enhances the work. Each lesson includes a vocabulary lesson, a reading explaining one of the environmental problems, a comprehension check, a grammar exercise, a dictation, an idiomatic dialogue for listening and discussion, suggestions for class activities, and suggested related websites for research and further learning. The text Our Living Planet can be used as preparation for the work in this book. Another supplement is the book Environmental Vocabulary Games.
