Work in groups. Discuss the following questions.
What farming activities in Viet Nam do you think have negative impact on the global temperature? What do you think are the alternatives to those activities?
Tham khảo:
There are several farming activities in Vietnam that can have a negative impact on the global temperature, including:
1. Rice cultivation: Rice cultivation is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions, primarily due to the production of methane during the decomposition of organic matter in flooded rice paddies.
2. Livestock production: Livestock production, particularly from cattle and buffalo, is a significant contributor to greenhouse gas emissions through the production of methane from enteric fermentation and manure management.
3. Pesticide use: Pesticide use in agriculture can lead to the emission of greenhouse gases, particularly nitrous oxide, as well as contribute to soil degradation.
4. Deforestation: Deforestation for agriculture, particularly for expanding rice paddies or livestock grazing areas, can contribute to the release of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
To address these negative impacts, some alternatives that can be considered include:
1. Sustainable rice cultivation: Alternative rice cultivation methods, such as aerobic rice cultivation or the use of alternate wetting and drying methods, can significantly reduce methane emissions from rice paddies.
2. Improved livestock management: Improved livestock management practices, such as better feeding and manure management, can reduce the emissions of methane and other greenhouse gases.
3. Organic farming: Organic farming practices, including the use of natural pest control methods and composting, can reduce the use of pesticides and fertilizers, as well as promote soil health.
4. Forest conservation and reforestation: Conservation and reforestation efforts can help to reduce the release of carbon dioxide from deforestation and promote carbon sequestration in new forest areas.
Overall, a shift towards sustainable agriculture practices and land use management can help to mitigate the negative impacts of farming activities on the global temperature.

3.Discuss the following in groups
*Which sentence are you most surprised by ? Why?
*Do you know any helth facts or myths in Viet Nam?
"Eat more fresh fish, like sushi, and you will be healthier". I am really surprised by this sentence because I never eat fresh fish. I think we can only eat fish after we cook it. If we eat fish without cooking, we can have stomachache. I think so but it's not true. It's amazing. ("Hãy ăn nhiều cá sống, như sushi chẳng hạn, và bạn sẽ khỏe mạnh hơn". Tớ thực sự bất ngờ về câu này bởi vì tớ chưa bao giờ ăn cá sống. Tớ nghĩ chúng ta chỉ có thể ăn cá sau khi chúng ta nấu chín nó. Nếu chúng ta ăn cá mà không nấu chín, chúng ta có thể bị đau bụng. Tớ nghĩ vậy nhưng điều đó không đúng. Thật là lạ.)

Ecotourist travel in a way that shows respect to nature and does not damage it. They also try to learn about the local people, so they can help to improve their quality of life.

- Holiday A is called an eco-holiday because the family stayed with a local family and they learned about ways local people work.

Work in groups. Discuss the following questions.
Are there similar projects in Viet Nam? Do you think the ideas in 1 can be applied in Viet Nam?
There have been efforts in Vietnam to protect and restore ecosystems, such as the Green Annamites Project, which aims to protect the forest ecosystem and biodiversity in the Annamites mountain range. In addition, there are initiatives to restore mangrove forests in the Mekong Delta and protect coral reefs in Nha Trang Bay.
Regarding the applicability of the ideas in the text to Vietnam, it depends on the specific context and conditions in Vietnam. The Great Green Wall project, for example, is focused on restoring degraded land in Africa, which may not be directly applicable to Vietnam. However, the idea of ecosystem restoration and protection is relevant to any country, and the principles and strategies used in these projects could be adapted and applied to Vietnam's unique ecological challenges. For example, efforts to protect and restore marine ecosystems like the Belize Barrier Reef could be relevant to Vietnam's extensive coastal areas and rich marine biodiversity. Overall, it would require careful consideration and adaptation to make these ideas applicable to Vietnam.
Tạm dịch:
Việt Nam đã có những nỗ lực bảo vệ và phục hồi các hệ sinh thái, chẳng hạn như Dự án Trường Sơn Xanh nhằm bảo vệ hệ sinh thái rừng và đa dạng sinh học ở dãy Trường Sơn. Ngoài ra, còn có các sáng kiến khôi phục rừng ngập mặn ở ĐBSCL và bảo vệ rạn san hô ở vịnh Nha Trang.
Về khả năng áp dụng các ý trong văn bản vào Việt Nam thì tùy thuộc vào bối cảnh và điều kiện cụ thể ở Việt Nam. Ví dụ, dự án Bức tường xanh vĩ đại tập trung vào việc khôi phục đất bị suy thoái ở Châu Phi, điều này có thể không áp dụng trực tiếp cho Việt Nam. Tuy nhiên, ý tưởng phục hồi và bảo vệ hệ sinh thái phù hợp với bất kỳ quốc gia nào, và các nguyên tắc cũng như chiến lược được sử dụng trong các dự án này có thể được điều chỉnh và áp dụng cho các thách thức sinh thái đặc thù của Việt Nam. Ví dụ, những nỗ lực bảo vệ và phục hồi các hệ sinh thái biển như Rạn san hô Chắn bờ Belize có thể phù hợp với các vùng ven biển rộng lớn và đa dạng sinh học biển phong phú của Việt Nam. Nhìn chung, cần phải xem xét và điều chỉnh cẩn thận để những ý tưởng này có thể áp dụng cho Việt Nam.
