As is known to us, Washington University in St. Louis became the first college in the United States to ban (禁止) selling bottled water in 2009. Since then, more than a dozen small colleges and schools have done the same. The ban isn’t because the schools don’t want students to have easy access to water. Instead, the goal is to encourage students to bring reusable bottles to save money and, more importantly, to save the environment.
Many people believe that producing and using bottled water not only wastes money but also harms the environment. They say that bottled water is unnecessary because public water supplies in the U.S. are among the best in the world. These people believe that water fountains and reusable bottles with easy access to filling stations are a better choice.
But the makers of bottled water argue that plastic bottles make up a small portion of the nation’s total waste. They say it’s unfair to single out (单独挑出) their product when so many other items are packaged (包装) in plastic containers, and what’s more, water is a healthy choice compared to some sodas and juices that are also sold at school.

As is know, when senior students graduate from school, most of their textbooks are thrown away, which are still in a good condition. What a waste it is! I quite agree to the suggestion we should recycle these textbooks. For one thing, recycle textbooks can save a lot of natural materials, which is used to make textbooks. For other, senior students may have plenty of useful notes over the pages. They are very helpful to those textbook users. What’s worse, the cost of the books will unload some burden of the families of the students. Actually in Australia and any other countries, recycling textbooks is popular but it gives us a good example. Why can’t we have a try? | 76. 77. 78. 79. 80. 81. 82. 83. 84. 85. |
