0 So..I was helping a friend of mine with some questions , but then it appeared this one:02br 02br 00--Rephrasing:02br 00--We care so little about the future that we are destroying our planet.02br 00--If...02br 02br 00My suggestion was:02br 02br 00"If we didn't care so little about the future, we wouldn't be destroying our planet."02br 02br 00Her teacher rephrased this to "care more". So I gave another try and suggested this:02br 02br 00"If we cared more about the future, we wouldn't be destroying our planet."02br 02br 00But NO; the answer her teacher gave was the following one:02br 00"If we care more about the future, we wouldn't destroying our planet."02br 02br 00He is the teacher so he should know more about this than me , but I have a few questions:02br 001) What type of if clause is that one? It uses future // conditional???02br 002) And what about "wouldn't destroying", does it even exist? I only know about "would destroy" or "would be destroying"02br 02br 00Please enlighten me.0-
