15．Hemrietta（aged 16）：The biggest problem with the environment is the ozone layer（臭氧层）； there's a hole，and it's getting bigger．It's made by cars and aeroplanes-things give off fumes．There should be law that you aren't allowed to go to school by cars because the fumes go up into the ozone layer and mess it up．
Erym（also aged 16）：The ozone layer's like a piece of paper covering a rock．It's meant to protect us．I'm scared that the hole will get bigger and move around the world and people will get cancer．I think about it sometimes in bed．That could happen in our time．We should stop using aerosols（喷雾），because they get pressed and all the poisons come out．And we could use horses instead of cars．
Hemrietta：We could get tandems--longer bikes，so children could ride on the back．Cars should be very，very expensive．I heard a woman on the radio saying she didn't care about the ozone layer because she wouldn't be alive，but it's our family who will die．
Erym：You also get bad pollution from burning down the rainforest．People should leave things alone if they don't own them．There should be fines for destroying the rainforest．And we should give money to poor people in Africa．
Hemrietta：We should spread out the people equally．"All those who want to live in Africa，put your hands up!"And then we could spread out the food．There's enough to go around．We could easily grow it．England's a very rich and greedy country．
Erym：We use up far more of the earth than people in Africa，so it's a good idea for the whole world to discuss the environment，but not prime ministers，because they always vote for their own side．The Queen should go instead．
