(President Calderone in a Press Conference)<br />
Problem: Population Causes Environmental Problems<br />
Stage Worker: Have a seat Mr. Calderone. Good to have you here.<br />
Calderone: My pleasure. (President Calderone sits down)<br />
Camera man: Okay... you’re on in 3...2...1... go!<br />
Anchor: Hello and welcome to Mexican News Today. Our top story today is President Calderone talking about our<br />
population and environmental problems. Now we’ll hand it over to our interviewer, Bob.<br />
Interviewer: Thank you John. Here I have a live press conference with President Calderone. So President, why do<br />
you think our population is a problem?<br />
Calderone: Well Bob, our population is causing a very big environmental problem. We have about 4.5 million cars<br />
and many factories polluting our air quality. This will give us bad air that we breathe every second.<br />
Interviewer: Wow President, is that your only problem with our population?<br />
Calderone: Oh no Bob, another problem is that wells in our city are causing the buildings to sink!<br />
Interviewer: No way!<br />
Calderone: Yes really! And, since 1900, some buildings in downtown have sunk 29 meters!<br />
Interviewer: Oh my!<br />
Calderone: It’s horrible!<br />
Interviewer: It is! Do you have any suggestions to help all of these problems?<br />
Calderone: Yes, in fact I do. People should buy hybrids, but I can’t convince the whole city to buy one, can I?<br />
Interviewer: No, that would be difficult.<br />
Calderone: we could also ride bikes if we don’t need to go very far.<br />
Interviewer: That’s a very good idea Mr. Calderone!<br />
Calderone: Thank you Bob.<br />
Interviewer: What about the flooding problem?<br />
Calderone: Hmm... I was thinking we could stop using wells and have our water imported from somewhere else. Our<br />
water isn’t very good any way, if you haven’t noticed.<br />
Interviewer: Hmm... that might take a while though...<br />
Calderone: Better late than never!<br />
Interviewer: Well, that is true... Our time is over so I’ll send it back to you John.<br />
Anchor: Thank you Bob, maybe I’ll buy a hybrid now. Well our session is over so we’ll see you tomorrow at 7:30 PM.<br />
From all of us on Mexican News Today, goodbye!<br />
