1. Look at the cartoon on the left and explain what "food waste" means.2. Give 2 reasons why we waste so much food. 3. Now look at the cartoon on the right and explain what consequences this waste could have. 4.Mention 5 means ( les moyens) to reduce food waste.

correction

throw away - the bin - bites ( des petites bouchées)-a plate (assiette). The character = indifferent

to produce too much - perishable goods- the consumption deadline is overdue - to grow your own food - a consumer society- be hungry- human health - obese

planet Earth- a gigantic bin- to pay attention to - be endangered- to get rid of ( se débarasser de ) - not have enough resources to feed ourselves - the climate = unlivable....

Expression à renvoyer à votre prof avant le vendredi 7 mai 18.00

The document is a cartoon representing today's and tomorrow's world. On the picture on the right, an overweight man is emptying his plate, throwing a lot of food in the bin and we notice he only had a few bites in the burger or the sandwich. He is wasting food. Food waste means throwing away food which has not been eaten. We guess the man may hahe bitten off more than he can chew (avoir les yeux plus gros que le ventre ). He probably bought too much and the consumption deadline is overdue. On the right picture, the man is now being thrown away by the planet itself. We understand the planet is getting rid of humans because it can't stand their selfish attitude any longer. The planet does not have enough resources to feed all citizens anymore and the planet is unlivable. People should not waste their waste but rather freeze the leftovers. They should write a shopping list to buy the bare necessities. They should offer their leftovers to needy people. They'd better give the products with a close expiry date to a charity. They ought to compost their leftovers and then grow their own fruit or vegetables.

1.Say what the nature of the document is and its aim. The document aims at + v-ing The author expects viewers to + v-inf 2.Explain the paradox regarding food waste in England Even though ( même si...)3.What should English people do to avoid wasting so much? They should / they shouldn’t + v-inf (écris 4 phrases)

Wasted food

How is England changing its eating habits to save the planet?

correction ->

Voc : to raise awareness on ( = sensibiliser) to be aware of = to be conscious of to reduce = to cut down on to no longer + v-inf = to stop + v-ing ( ne plus...) to waste ( = gaspiller) to throw away (jeter) to be short of money ( être fauché) to lack ( manquer de) to starve ( = mourir de faim) – to find it hard to make ends meet = avoir du mal à finir le mois financièrement to be overweight = to be obese A locavore = someone who primarily eats local foods

WRAP works with governments, businesses and communities to deliver practical solutions to improve resource efficiency. Our mission is to accelerate the move to a sustainable, resource-efficient economy by: re-inventing how we design, produce and sell products, re-thinking how we use and consume products, and re-defining what is possible through re-use and recycling

séance 10 mai : réponds aux questions en utilisant un lexique riche et varié

Say what the nature of the document is and its aim( =its objective) The document is an advert made by WRAP which aims at raising awareness on waste .It presents an apple divided into two parts : a healthy one and a rotten one. These 2 part illustrate the caption “British people waste 50 % of the food they buy”. This means that a half of what they buy ends up in the bin.The author expects viewers to reduce (= to cut down on) on their waste. He asks viewers not to be “a bad apple” that is to say not to be a fool and not to behave in an irresponsible way. Explain the paradox regarding food waste in England Even though some people are short of money, lack food or starve, some British people throw away their food. What should English people do to avoid wasting so much?

  • They should write a list before going to the shop not to buy too much food
  • People ’d better (not) always trust the use-by date
  • People ought to sort out their fridge so as not to forget some food items which then could be rotten…

La vidéo est nommée “Meatless Monday: Choose to Go Meatless One Day a Week – A Timely Idea that Started 100 Years Ago” et elle a été réalisée par le movement “Meatless Monday”. Il s’agit d’une vidéo explicative dans laquelle Sid Lerner, le fondateur de « the Monday Campaign » et sa présidente Peggy Neu interviennent à tour de rôle afin de corroborer les idées émises par chacun. Sid Lerner est le premier à intervenir et il rappelle sa jeunesse en tant que Scout pendant la 2ème Guerre Mondiale et explique qu’à cette période Roosevelt a émis l’idée d’un lundi sans viande afin que les soldats déployés soient mieux nourris, idée en fait née pendant la 1ère GM. Neu rebondit en expliquant que la guerre était une période de pénurie et par conséquent on a demandé aux citoyens Américains de ne pas utiliser de blé ou bien de viande un jour précis dans la semaine et qu’ensuite pendant la 2ème GM c’est le lundi sans viande qui a été retenu ( 12 millions d’américains ont adhéré à cette idée, soit 10 à12% de la population ). Lerner explique ensuite que le succès de Roosevelt lui a donné l’envie de relancer l’initiative en 2003. Neu explique toutefois que les causes poussant à ce jour sans viande ont changé : aujourd’hui on souffre d’une surconsommation de viande (15 % de trop selon Lerner qui cite la FDA) et qu’afin d’être en bonne santé, supprimer la viande une journée et une bonne solution. Pour Neu il y a un autre point commun entre aujourd’hui et la 1ere GM c’est ce sentiment de citoyenneté ; c’est une décision prise par de nombreuses personnes ensemble, dans 40 pays différents et qui est soutenue par des écoles, des chefs de restaurants, … Lerner explique que des personnes connues telles Oprah Winfrey ou Mac Cartney ou bien des associations protectrices des animaux ou de l’environnement soutiennent également le mouvement. Pour Neu, chaque citoyen, avec sa petite participation, contribue à une amélioration de la planète. Le journaliste célèbre donc les 100 ans de ce mouvement en présentant son histoire et son évolution. Interroger des personnes investies dans ce mouvement permet d’avoir des arguments favorables et le document espère ainsi faire adhérer bien d’autres citoyens afin que le nombre de pays adhérents dépasse les 40.

CORRECTION

Travail à renvoyer avant le vendredi 21 minuit

  • Explain what the idea is from line 4 to line 6.

Eating meat is hazardous for the environment, water, nature…

  • From line 7 to line 10, you can read: 96% , 18% and a third . Explain what the numbers correspond to.

96%): proportion of mammals that are livestock and humans. 18%: proportion of all food calories meat and dairy products ( milk, cheese, cream, yoghurts…) account for. a third :proportion of protein meat and dairy products ( milk, cheese, cream, yoghurts…) account for.

  • What conclusion can you come to?

Population: worst species extinction crisis – mass extinctions of animals – world’s population balloons. Food consumption: eat far less meat – beef and pork – food calories – protein – farmed meat – huge reduction in meat eating required – beef consumption needs to drop – more beans and pulses – consumption of pork, milk and eggs needs to decline – flexitarian diet. Environment: recycling – help the planet – fueling climate change – polluting landscapes and waterways – deforestation – methane emissions – fertilizer use – greenhouse gas emissions – pollution of streams, rivers, the ocean – dangerous climate change – global temperature increase.

  • From line 11 to line 15. What environmental problems do farmed animals cause? Rephrase the ideas.

Main problem: farmed meat harms the environment and does not feed the world’s growing population

  • From line 16 to 22. What do scientists advise people to do?

Scientists advise people to eat less meat and more vegetables and to switch to a flexitarian diet which requires less meat. List of possible solutions: grow more vegetables – stop deforestation – use less fertilizers – become a flexitarian – eat more beans and pulses.

  • Try to explain how this photo can illustrate the article( 60 words) CORRECTION INDIVIDUELLE

The poster is an ad for veggie burgers. It shows a cow made out of vegetables (carrots, bell peppers, courgettes, asparagus, shallots, peas, etc.). In the background there is grass and trees made out of broccoli. In the foreground, on a white plate there is a burger that looks like an ordinary burger with meat, salad, tomatoes, bread and cheese. A stamp on the burger reads “25% bigger than the leading national brand”, and at the bottom of the poster the slogan is: “Lightlife: live long, travel light. Introducing the new Lightlife veggie burgers: more proof that eating well and living well can be one and the same”. Four boxes are all ticked: 20g protein, no preservatives, non-GMO soy, 100% delicious. We can draw a parallel with the text which is about why people should eat less meat or how it is important to eat less meat.
