Answer:
The author's purpose in writing this speech is to persuade listeners to perform volunteer work.
Explanation:
<u>The speaker wants the audience to work as volunteers to help keep the nesting turtles safe from predators. To convince people to do so, the speaker calls it "a unique opportunity," and says they can help "protect these endangered creatures" as well as make a difference by doing very little. This way, he/she expects the audience to feel like the task can be effortlessly carried out - just taking a stroll and clapping hands will suffice -, but its result will have incredible importance.</u>
