  1. ‘Mountain World!’ A Fantastic New Theme Park

  2. One of Britain’s highest mountains has a café on the top.

  3. There is also a train that takes passengers all the way to the summit.

  4. Improving on Nature? What do you think? ?

  5. There are plans to build a theme park called ‘Mountain World’ on top of a local mountain. The park will include various rides but also an information centre telling visitors about the local animals and plants. There are plans to build a road to the top for easy access and the park will employ around 500 people.

  6. Should the building of the theme park go ahead? What kind of issues will be involved? What do you think? ?

  7. ‘Mountain World!’ You are going to be a character in a debate about the building of the theme park. Read the information about each person.

  8. You are a local entrepreneur. You have lived in the area all of your life and have seen how economic deprivation has had a devastating effect on the people there. It is your idea to build the mountain centre. You have just retired from a stressful job and a life in a big city. You have moved to this area to live in peace and quiet and especially enjoy the walks and views of the mountains. You left school two years ago and have been unemployed since then. You are desperate for a job but don’t want to leave the local area where you have lived all your life.

  9. You are a mountain guide and have done your job for many years. Your website advertises your services as ‘a guided walk in the wild, untamed outdoors’. You are a scientist who has been studying a protected plant and the species that depend on it. The mountain is only one of two areas in the UK where the plant survives. However, it is poisonous to humans. You are a wheelchair user who used to love the outdoors but had an accident. Since then you haven’t been able to access the mountain environment.
