A: I think we should use non-chemical biodegradable detergents. This would reduce water pollution.
B: I agree with you, but they can be more expensive so not a lot of people can afford to buy them.

Текст аудирования:
Presenter: Today Itaskm joined by Matt Silbury. Matt recently set up a tree-planting project which aims to breathe fresh new life into urban communities. Welcome, Matt. Perhaps you can start by telling us how the project got started?
Matt: Yes, hello. Well, it all started when I moved to Lynton to be closer to my job in the city. I was born and raised in a small town in the country and it was the first time Itaskd lived in such an urban environment. I found the concrete jungle of all the grey buildings there really depressing. I quickly realised I wasntaskt alone; other local people felt exactly the same way. So, I did some research on volunteer community projects and decided that Itaskd enjoy setting up a tree-planting project. It seemed like the perfect way to brighten up the area. I suggested it at a local residentstask meeting and we all decided to give it a try. Then we applied to the forest commission for some money to help with the project and, luckily, they gave us permission and money to go ahead.
Presenter: Was it difficult to get people involved in the beginning?
Matt: Actually, not really. Most people really liked the idea from the start, as tree planting is something that brings an immediate and lasting change to an area. Then, as people began to see their community looking greener and more pleasant, others wanted to join in, too. People keep telling me that they feel a real sense of satisfaction doing something so practical to care for the environment. I know exactly what they mean. Ittasks actually really nice to be able to say "You see that tree over there? I planted it!" I feel that the project has really brought the community closer, too, because wetaskve all been working towards the same goal. Presenter: So what does the future hold for the project? Matt: Well, a small group of us have started trying to promote similar projects in other areas of the city. We visit a lot of community groups and events to talk about what wetaskve done and to encourage others to do the same.
Presenter: So how can our listeners find out more?
Matt: Just go to our website www.greenspace.org. Theretasks lots of information there about how you can either join us, donate to the project, or even start planting trees in your own community.
Presenter: Matt, thank you very much for joining us. Matt: Youtaskre welcome.
