Pair Work Read Paragraph 1. Discuss the questions.
1. What is “Just-me-ism”
2. Why is “Just-me-ism” a problem
3. Do you have any suggestions on how to solve the problem
“Just-me-ism” is a way of thinking that focuses on caring for just oneself and ignores the environment, animals, and the community.
There will be nobody to care about and look after the environment.
A solution would be to make people understand that even the smallest action can change the world, so they should take action whenever possible for the environment, animals and their community.

Read Paragraph 2 & 3. Complete the table.
To inspire young people to take action for the environment, animals and their community, Roots & Shoots was established. This institute was set up in the early 1990s by Dr. Jane Goodall, a scientist who’s the world’s best-known expert on wild chimpanzees. In addition to her research, she has been whole-heartedly committed to environmental protection. The whole purpose of Roots & Shoots is to educate young people, from pre-schoolers to university students, so they can help to build a future that is secure and live together in peace with nature.
The organisation is called Roots & Shoots because roots move slowly under the ground to make a firm foundation, and shoots seem small and weak, but they can break open brick walls to reach the light. The roots and shoots are you, your friends and young people all around the world. Hundreds and thousands of roots and shoots can solve the problems, change the world and make it a better place to live in.

3. What is your explanation for the two quotes from Dr. Jane Goodall
Each one of us is very important. Each one of us has our own responsibility to take. A small action will lead to a huge change especially when everyone works together.
Only by acting together can we ask thousands — millions — of people to take action to create change and influence the change that is needed in our communities and our world.
“It is by acting together, in this exciting way, that we can involve thousands — millions — of people, and this is what is going to change the world.”
Every individual matters. Every individual has a role to play. Every individual makes a difference.
