世界地球日英語演講稿 篇1
On Earth Day, 175 world leaders met at the United Nations to sign the Paris Agreement, a historic pact to curb the carbon emissions behind climate change. Several speakers kicked off the ceremony by describing what's at stake, culminating with an urgent, cogent plea from new Academy Award-winner Leonardo DiCaprio.
"Yes, we have achieved the Paris Agreement. More countries have come together to sign this agreement today than for any other cause in the history of humankind, and that is reason for hope," DiCaprio said, praising the first international treaty that commits both developed and developing nations to cut greenhouse gas emissions. "But unfortunately the evidence shows us that it will not be enough. Our planet cannot be saved unless we leave fossil fuels in the ground where they belong."
"You know that climate change is happening faster than even the most pessimistic of scientists warned us decades ago. It has become a runaway freight train bringing with it an impending disaster for all living things," DiCaprio said. "Think about the shame each of us will carry when our children and grandchildren look back and realize we had the means of stopping this devastation, but simply lacked the political will."
"We can congratulate each other today, but it will mean absolutely nothing if you return to your countries and fail to push beyond the promises of this historic agreement. Now is the time for bold, unprecedented action. My friends, look at the delegates around you. It's time to ask yourselves which side of history you will be on."

世界地球日英語演講稿 篇3
同學們：
大家好，今天，我很榮幸能站這兒演講。我演講的題目是《保護環境，從我做起》。
我們這個繁榮昌盛的時代，人們的生活越來越好，卻不再那么愛護我們的地球母親了：大街上，到處是廢紙、垃圾；小河裡的也不是清澈見底的了;空氣也不再那么清新……
你們知道嗎？原來6359萬多公頃可利用的草地面積，目前退化為3867萬公頃。素衣水草豐美著稱的全國牧區呼倫貝爾草原和錫林郭勒草原，退化面積分別達到23%和41%。看著這些觸目驚心的數字，我的心都在顫抖，我們人類到底做了多少傷害地球母親的事啊！
當你看到頭頂的天空不再湛藍無比，腳下的大地不再綠草如茵，湖水不再清澈如鏡，你有沒有想過為保護環境做出一點貢獻呢？
我的妹妹就很愛護環境。一次，阿姨給她和弟弟一人買了一支雪糕。弟弟“呲”得一聲把雪糕包裝袋拆開，隨隨手扔在了小店門口的台階旁。而妹妹卻邁著小小的步伐，一搖一擺地走到遠處的垃圾桶扔掉。弟弟笑她說：你真傻，這兒這么多人扔，你還非要多走路。”妹妹卻把頭昂的老高：“我得保護環境！”她這么小就懂得保護環境，這是多么高尚的品質啊！在這點上我很慚愧。
同學們，為了我們能在更好的環境中成長，請一起保護環境吧。也許只是彎一彎腰，伸一伸手，人類保護環境的工程就多一份希望成功。記住，保護環境，功在當代，利在千秋！
