Looking at our mind map, you can not belive that over fifteen thousand plant and animal species around the globe threatened with extinction. You can see some different causes of this species extinction. They are habitat destruction, commercial exploitation and pollution. Everyone knows clearly that biodiversity is important for humans since it provides food, clean water, air and other products. For that reason, different efforts have been made to save and conserve endangered species such as introducing the Red list, enacting laws to protect wildlife and establisting a lot of wildlife habitat reserves. On behalf of our group, we want to give you our deep message “Taking care of environment is not an obligation - our environment is our life”. That’s all for my talk today.

Our mindmap shows clearly that women in old society were considered to be unequal to men. They play the roles of mothers and house wives, they weren’t allowed to work in business and education Therefore, it was men who controlled most positions of employment and politics in society. Thanks to women’s liberation since the 18th century, women nowadays have gained many legal rights equal to men. Among them, the most importances are the right to vote, the right to gain power and the right to get equal payment in work. Sincerely thank you for your listening. 3.
