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."

老師們、同學們：大家早上好!
明天就是4月22日，是一個特別的日子，有誰知道是什麼日子?(世界地球日)今天我國旗下講話的主題就是“世界地球日”。
世界地球日活動起源於美國，1970年4月22日，美國首次舉行了聲勢浩大的“地球日”活動。這是人類有史以來第一次規模宏大的民眾性環境保護運動。作為人類現代環保運動的開端，“地球日”活動推動了多個國家環境法規的建立。1990年4月22日，全世界140多個國家、2億多人同時在各地舉行多種多樣的環境保護宣傳活動。這項活動得到了聯合國的首肯。從此“地球日”成為了“世界地球日”。
大家都知道，由於人類向自然界過度的索取，已經導致了大自然無情的報復：颱風、暴雨、暴風雪、洪澇、乾旱、森林大火、地震、海嘯等災情每年都在發生，全世界每年應颱風、暴雨、洪澇、乾旱、森林大火、地震、海嘯等災害死亡的人達到幾百萬人。所有這一切都在向人類發出警示：人類在破壞地球環境的同時，也在毀滅著自己。人類只有一個地球，尊重地球就是尊重生命，拯救地球就是拯救未來。
4月22日(也就是明天)是“世界地球日”，世界地球日活動旨在喚起人類愛護地球、保護家園的意識，促進資源開發與環境保護的協調發展。我國從1990年開始，每年4月22日也都舉辦“世界地球日”的紀念活動。
作為小學生的我們，該如何做呢?每天早晨和中午，我們都能看到同學們在打掃衛生，揀拾廢紙，用自己的雙手去保護校園環境的優美。但是，校園裡仍然存在著一些問題：有的同學隨便亂丟廢紙、亂丟食品袋廢棄物;有的同學隨便在草坪上行走踐踏草坪;有的同學在學校食堂吃飯時候把飯菜、湯掉落在地上，不及時清理乾淨，造成了的浪費，污染了校園環境!
同學們，環保意識是現代人的標誌。做為21世紀的主人，我們要有時代責任感。心繫全球，著眼身邊，立足校園。不隨地亂扔廢紙、垃圾;不隨便在草坪上行走踐踏草坪，多彎彎腰撿撿紙屑，節約用水、節約用電、節約用紙，看見有人亂扔廢紙、垃圾，破壞校園環境的行為及時批評並報告老師。愛護花草樹木，從小事做起，從身邊的事做起，從現在做起，保護地球母親，讓我們的家園更加美麗!
