Radio Show Audio Script
Listen to the community members discussing urban problems and their solutions.

  • Host: Today we're talking trash, along with other community problems. These problems can take a lot of time and money to fix, but sometimes solutions are easier than you think. We asked community members for their ideas.
  • Margot: Garbage is a big problem. And if there is a lot of garbage in the street, people often leave more trash there. They see garbage and think it's OK to add a little more. But if you keep the area clean, people will think twice before throwing trash on the street.
  • Josh: Graffiti makes local business owners angry. But if you make a special area for graffiti, people won't paint on other buildings. Many graffiti artists paint beautifully and can really improve an area.
  • Frida: Noise at night is a common problem. When you speak angrily to noisy neighbors, they just keep making noise. But if you talk to them calmly and politely, they'll probably listen. And if you explain your feelings clearly, they will understand.
  • Host: So, some interesting ideas. They may not work in every community, but some of them just might in yours!
