Assignment 2

I tekststykket er et adverbium (biord) fjernet fra hver af de understregede sætninger. Indsæt det angivne adverbium i sætningerne i skemaet.

I come to you with five basic messages. They really are simple. But in their simplicity, they have been overlooked. Because human society has taken nature for granted for so long. We assume that that season will follow season; that our fields will be pollinated and yield bountiful harvests; that the soil will be fertile and that the rains will come. We assume that this fine web of life on which our very existence depends will remain unaltered. Even as we carelessly pave over, extract, emit, cause effluents, fragment and exterminate.

So in their simplicity, perhaps each of my five messages will touch a note of deeper meaning.

My first message is quite simple: that biodiversity is critical for human existence. But biodiversity is also under huge threats. As we destroy biodiversity, we not only lose species, we also lose the very foundation of our existence.
