Interview with a Member of Greenpeace Russia

Kate Hello Sergei.

Sergei Hello.

Kate Can you tell me something about your organisation?

Sergei Yes, of course. I'm a member of Greenpeace Russia. We've got thousands members in all parts of the country.

Kate Greenpeace is famous all over the world. What does Greenpeace do in Russia?

Sergei We've got many different projects.

Kate Tell me about one of them.

Sergei We're trying to restore the Russian forests. Most people don't understand the importance of forests. Forests produce clean air and water. They are home to thousands of plants and animals. They also give work to one and a half million people in Russia.

Kate What problems have the forests got?

Sergei We are cutting down too many trees to make wood, but we aren't planting enough new trees. Years ago there was more control of this. These days there is less control. We are working with the Ministry of Natural Resources. One day things will be better. Every time we cut down a tree, we need to plant a tree. It's very simple.

Kate What other projects have you got?

Sergei One project that I am involved with is Lake Baikal.

Kate What's the problem with Lake Baikal?

Sergei Pollution! At the moment the problem isn't too big, but we have to make sure it doesn't grow. Lake Baikal is the deepest lake in the world. It's also very clear. Lake Baikal is home to many different animals. For example, the number of freshwater seals in Lake Baikal is going down. We have to protect them.

Kate Why are there fewer seals now?

Sergei Because of the pollution in the lake. There is a paper factory that puts its waste directly into the lake. These chemicals are dangerous for the plants and animals. We're trying to stop them. Greenpeace is asking for 'zero pollution'.

Kate How can people help?

Sergei They can donate money to Greenpeace Russia. They can tell their friends and family about the problems. They can join the organisation.

Kate How can people find out more about Greenpeace Russia?

Sergei That's easy. Go to www.greenpeace.org/russia. There's information about the organisation, the work we do and how to join.

Kate Thank you very much, Sergei, and good luck with your projects.
