The Sugar Maple Tree | English Listening Practice

If you open a book about trees or google "maple trees", you will see that there are many varieties of this tree. In fact, there are over 100 different species of maple around the world, and in Canada, we have about 10 of those species.   What's the most important one? The most famous one? For us in Canada, I'd say yes, it's the sugar maple, the one that gives us that delicious liquid gold we call maple syrup. How does it do that? Listen to find out. I worry though that our ability to enjoy this sweet treat is going to disappear one day as climate change affects the weather and the health of these trees. But for today, I hope you will enjoy listening to this advanced English episode, and learning about these trees while keeping in mind that one day, they might be unable to make syrup, or even worse, become endangered or extinct.    And join the newsletter so that you never miss my news and updates.
