Rigoberto Garcia was a poor man from Bolivia who won the lottery and moved to California to sell fruits and vegetables. While on holiday in Oklahoma, a powerful tornado struck the city on August 25th. The tornado hit the hotel where Rigoberto was staying, leaving him unconscious in the hospital for two years. After recovering, Rigoberto spoke to a meteorologist who explained that tornadoes have been stronger in recent years due to issues like the hole in the ozone layer and pollution causing global warming.

“The tornado in Oklahoma”
Rigoberto Garcia was from Bolivia. He lived in La Paz.
He was very poor. One day, he won the lottery so he
travelled to California. In California, he sold fruits and
vegetables. He travelled to Oklahoma on holiday. He
stayed at San Marin Hotel.
On August 25th
Oklahoma was struck by a tornado.
Fortunately, he survived. He was at hospital,
unconscious, for two years but now he is very good.
Rigoberto went to visit a meteorologist to speak about
the tornadoes. The meteorologist explained why
tornadoes are stronger than other years. It is because
of the hole in the ozone layer and pollution in the world.
He said we should not use sprays, factories should not
pollute the air, and we should not throw garbage on the
street.
