These activities aim to help students understand and effectively listen to spoken English, including the nuances and variations that may occur in conversation.

When Pigs Fly
This lesson explores the use of animal fats, notably pig fat, in the production of aviation biofuels, and the ethical dilemmas it presents. It explains how animal fats are used to create biodiesel through a process called transesterification, providing a greener alternative to traditional jet fuels. However, while this practice supports waste management and reduces greenhouse gas emissions, it raises ethical concerns, particularly among vegetarians, vegans, and those opposed to intensive livestock farming. These groups question the indirect support of an industry known for its questionable animal welfare practices and environmental impact. Furthermore, the article suggests that using animal fats for biofuels may unintentionally support intensive livestock farming, thus perpetuating its harmful effects. The piece concludes by introducing synthetic or "electrofuels" as a potential alternative, though it notes that significant research and investment are required for these to become a viable option.
