[00:02.86]Unit 22 Environmental Protection Warm-up
[00:08.03]Exercises 2 Listen to the news report.
[00:11.71]Which of the statements are true
[00:13.72]and which are false?
[00:15.30]Write T for true and F for false.
[00:19.26]Now over to Jim Wilson in Argentina,
[00:21.67]where biologists fear a species
[00:23.60]of birds could be in very serious danger.
[00:26.90]Every September, more than half a million
[00:29.63]Magellanic penguins 2 come back from the sea,
[00:32.81]to have babies and raise these young penguins.
[00:35.75]They stay at Punta Tombo for six months.
[00:39.29]Penguins have one partner
[00:40.75]for life and each pair returns to the same
[00:43.76]next location year after year.
[00:46.26]This colony appears to be thriving,
[00:48.47]but wildlife biologists believe these penguins
[00:51.28]could face serious threats to their future.
[00:54.16]In recent years,
[00:55.39]overfishing in the areas where the birds feed
[00:57.95]and pollution from oil tankers 3
[01:00.09]have killed thousands of penguins
[01:02.38]along Argentina's coast.
[01:04.59]This situation is repeated
[01:06.23]in other places around the globe.
[01:08.19]As a result,
[01:09.79]most of the world's penguin 1 species
[01:11.75]outside of Antarctica areas
[01:14.25]are now endangered.
[01:16.32]Experts say only urgent international
[01:19.43]conservation measures can save them,
[01:21.94]this is Jim Wilson for TV8 news in Argentina.
