SAMPLE 1/1
Today, I’m going to speak about something very important for all of us — “Why Should We Save Water?”
Water is one of the most important things in our life. We need it to drink, to cook food, to clean, to grow plants, and so much more. But many times, we waste water without even thinking — by leaving the tap running, taking long showers, or using too much water for small tasks.
We should save water because it is not unlimited. Only a small part of all the water on Earth can be used by humans. If we waste it, there may not be enough for everyone in the future — not just for people, but also for animals and plants.
At home, I try to save water by turning off the tap while brushing my teeth. I also use a bucket to water plants instead of a hose. These small actions may not seem like a lot, but if everyone does them, we can make a big difference.
We must understand that saving water is not just a good habit — it is our responsibility. Water gives us life, and we must respect and protect it.
So let’s save water today, so we can all live happily tomorrow.
Thank you. ”
SAMPLE 2/2
Today, I want to talk about something very simple but very important — “Why Should We Save Water?”
I think we should save water because we use it every day. We drink it, we use it to take a bath, and even to clean our homes. But sometimes we waste it by keeping the tap open or using too much.
I save water by turning off the tap when I brush my teeth. I also tell others to not waste it. My teacher told us that only a small amount of water on Earth is clean and safe to use.
If we don’t save water, there will be less for everyone. Plants, animals, and people all need water. We must use it carefully.
So yes, I believe we should all save water. Even small things we do can help a lot.
Thank you. ”
