题目内容
15.Just about everything you do leaves a"carbon footprint (碳的足迹)".For example,when you travel in a taxi,the car gives off carbon dioxide (CO2) into the air.Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas.Greenhouse gases make the earth become warm.To protect our environment,we need to leave less of a"carbon footprint".How big is your carbon footprint?To get an idea,take a look at the following numbers.
*TV sets and DVD players produce 723kg of CO2 a year.
*If you use your dryer machine five times per week,you produce 185kg of CO2 per year.
*If you take an eight-minute shower every day,you produce 616kg of CO2a year.
Surprised?Well,here's how you can work to reduce it:
Eating
*Each week,choose a day not to eat meat.Meat uses up lots of energy because it takes a long
time to produce.
*Do not waste food.Ask to take food home from restaurants if there's any left.
At home
*Save energy by using efficient light bulbs.Turn off the lights when you leave.
*Take short showers rather than baths.
*Dry your clothes in the sun instead of in a dryer machine.
At school
*Only print things out when necessary,and print double-sided.
*Don't use disposable (一次性的) cups or boxes.Take your own cups and lunchboxes to school.
