A SCOTTISH ADVENTURE
Hi, I'm Nildd, and I'm a scout The Scout Association is a
popular club for boys and girls. There are nearly 4000,000
scouts in the USA, and more than 400,000 scouts in the UK.
Around 30,700 of those are gisis.
This weekend, my scout group is going to go to the Scottish
mountains. We aren't going to stay in a hotell The teachers have
got small tents, but my tent is large-six scouts are going to
sleep in it! It rains a lot of time in the mountains, and it's
sometimes stormy there, too, but I hope it will be sunny this
weekend!
It's going to be fun! We're going to go for long walls, and make
dinner on stoves. We're going to cook lots of rice and
vegetables. We won't have any junk food, like burgers!

But, unfortunately, people try to subordinate to themselves the nature, to become her owner, but so it is impossible. The nature needs to be protected, it is our house. Necessary for life the nature gives all to us. If was considered earlier, the natural riches which aren't settled that they in large quantities, then now it becomes clear what is in limited quantity much. The person can't use gifts of the nature constantly as they can disappear soon. A task of the person to preserve the nature and to increase her riches. It is necessary to approach the matter as we are obliged to leave behind to the descendants the rich, beautiful, and pure planet responsibly.
