Script:

Narrator: Listen to a conversation between a student and his environmental science professor.

Student: Hi, Professor Williams - I(m here for our 1:30 meeting.

Professor: Hi Michael. Thanks for being so prompt. That really makes

a difference when I have so many students scheduled back to back. If only there could be more than 24 hours in a day.   Student: (Laughs) I know what you mean.

Professor: So, what’ s on your mind?

Student: Well I’m here about my topic choice.

Professor: For the upcoming oral presentation? By the way, how do you feel about speaking in front of the class?

Student: Well I’ d have to say I’m most comfortable writing papers, but I’m not nervous about doing this presentation. It’ ll be good public speaking practice you know.

Professor: Exactly, and certainly, it’ s a skill that is always useful.

Student: Mm-hmm. Yeah, so the assignment was for us to talk about a current environmental solution? And I found so much eye opening information while researching. The only problem is, I don’t know which area to go with.   Professor: Okay well, which areas most interest you?

Student: Well I’ve spent a lot of time exploring the concept of wind farms. You know, using wind as a source of energy.

Professor: Mm-hmm, go on.

Student: Right um - lots of stuff on that you know types of wind farms and different designs, how they' ve been set up, how to get the most out of them.

Professor: Okay, and what' s another choice?

Student: Well, it' s a tie between wind farms and mushrooms.

Professor: Mushrooms!? Hm! Tell me more about that!

Student: Well, there' s a species of mushrooms that produces chemicals that can eat away at toxic waste - from petroleum products, pesticides and other harmful pollutants

Professor: Yes, I've read research about this - but actually Michael it' s the fungus beneath the ground that affects the harmful pollutants. That' s an important difference

Student: Oh ri-right that' s what I meant - I'll explain it more clearly in class.

Professor: Keep it simple. Something like - just like trees produce apples, it' s the funghi that produce mushrooms - and it' s also those funghi that produce the helpful chemicals.

Student: I understand - it' s just so amazing that something low cost and already there in nature could solve such a large pollution problem caused by humans

Professor: It is intriguing. Wind farms affect, too, but I think most of your classmates will already be generally familiar with that topic. Whereas they might not have heard of this.

Professor: Btw, what s the growing period for this species?

Student: Ah it only takes a month to grow.

Professor: Great! The university has a greenhouse that's sometimes available for research projects. Why don't you stop over there one afternoon, speak to the manager and ask if he' d let you use a small area of the greenhouse?

Student: Okay.

Professor: You could try to duplicate the results of the study!

Student: In the greenhouse?

Professor: Yes! You have three months until the end of this semester. It might make a strong final project!
