Some countries are better than others at looking after the environment. In Europe, Germany(德国) and northern European countries work very hard to improve the environment. The people in Germany put their rubbish into different bags—paper in one bag, plastic in another bag, etc. There are laws that do not allow people to burn too much coal.
In the 1970s, as people learned more about environmental problems, the “Green” movement(运动) began and soon spread all over Europe. The “Green” movement tries to get governments to protect the environment. It collects information about how industry is damaging(毁坏) the environment and tells newspapers.
