A: Hey, have you seen me burning some rubbish here?
(Này, bạn có thấy tôi đốt rác ở đây không?)
B: Yeah, I see that. But do you know that burning waste like that can be dangerous to people's health and the environment?
(Vâng, tôi hiểu rồi. Nhưng bạn có biết rằng việc đốt rác thải như vậy có thể gây nguy hiểm cho sức khỏe con người và môi trường?)
A: Really? How come?
(Thật á? Vì sao?)
B: When you burn waste like that, it releases harmful toxins into the air, which can cause respiratory problems and other health issues. It can also harm the environment and pollute the air and soil.
(Khi bạn đốt chất thải như vậy, nó sẽ giải phóng các chất độc hại vào không khí, có thể gây ra các vấn đề về hô hấp và các vấn đề sức khỏe khác. Nó cũng có thể gây hại cho môi trường và gây ô nhiễm không khí và đất.)
A: Oh, I had no idea. Thanks for letting me know. I'll stop doing it and find a proper way to dispose of my waste.
2.
B: Hey, I'm building a campfire. Do you want to join me?

(Tôi thấy quan điểm của bạn. Có lẽ chúng ta nên tìm một nơi an toàn hơn để đốt lửa hoặc chỉ sử dụng bếp di động để thay thế.)
A: Yes, that's a better idea. We can enjoy our time outdoors without putting ourselves and the environment at risk.
(Vâng, đó là một ý tưởng tốt hơn. Chúng ta có thể tận hưởng thời gian ở ngoài trời mà không gây nguy hiểm cho bản thân và môi trường.)
