- Although I haven’t delivered numerous speeches in my life, one particular experience stands out.
- A local NGO organized an environmental fair in my hometown, during which our school principal selected two students for a declamation contest.
- I, representing the 9th class, had only two days to prepare.
- Despite initial nervousness, our teacher assisted us in addressing the topic of global warming, a contemporary issue.
- During the speech, I explored the impact of global warming on the entire planet, emphasizing that humans are both the cause and the solution to this problem.
- Pollution resulting from deforestation, increased industrialization, and the use of cars and luxuries were key points of discussion.
- I also delved into the effects of global warming, such as rising sea levels, shifting climates, and the spread of diseases like malaria and dengue.
- Proposing simple measures like preserving trees, planting more trees, using recycled materials, and avoiding plastic bags, I aimed to address this critical issue.
- Despite my previous stage shyness, I confidently delivered the speech during the fair, receiving positive feedback from the audience.
- Winning the first prize not only boosted my confidence but also revealed my oratorical skills.
- That day remains etched in my memory, and the sense of accomplishment and joy I experienced is something I will never forget.
