You can be proud of yourselves, even if you can only make one or two of these green changes. The goal here is to limit carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, which are closely associated to the big problem of global-warming.
Strategy 1: Bring your own cup to Starbucks | |
You'll get a 10-cent discount, and it's one less paper cup to end up in a dustbin. | The store won't create more waste when they throw away a cup. |
Strategy 2: Turn off your computer | |
When in standby mode, your PC is still using energy. | Turning off a monitor for 40 hours a week may only save $ 5 a month, but it reduces CO2 by 750 pounds. |
Strategy 3: Reuse plastic bags | |
Instead of throwing away 100 billion plastic bags a year, try and get a second, third, or tenth use out of them. Better yet, next time you shop, try a reusable bag. | You're reducing pollution. The amount of oil it would take to make just 14 plastic bags would run your car for one mile. |
Strategy 4: Use recycled paper in the bathroom | |
Most of the toilet paper we use is made from trees found in forests previously untouched by humans. | If every household replaced one roll of toilet paper with a recycled one,424,000trees would still be standing. Look for eco paper towels too. |
Strategy 5: Buy energy-efficient appliances(电器) | |
Replace the old fridge with an Energy Star appliance and you'll use 15 percent less energy. It might be a little expensive to buy, but you'll save money on your electricity bills and help the environment. | If we all used one Energy Star appliance at home, it would be like planting 1.7 million acres of new trees. |
Strategy 6: Plant a tree | |
Adding green to your garden is beautiful and earth-pleasing. | Just one tree will help make cleaner air and save the environment from 5, 000 pounds of hot carbon dioxide each year. |
A.Strategies to Save Money |
B.Ways to be Earth-Friendly |
C.Strategies to End Global-Warming |
D.Ways to Limit Carbon Dioxide |
A.It will help to save a large amount of money. |
B.It will help to reduce a great deal of CO2. |
C.It will save the amount of oil that runs your car for a mile. |
D.It will be like planting 1.7 million acres of new trees. |
A.Strategies 1 & 3. | B.Strategies 2 & 5. |
C.Strategies 3 & 6. | D.Strategies 4 & 5. |
A.They all help reduce the use of energy like electricity. |
B.They all cut down the amount of the use of paper. |
C.They all result in producing less greenhouse gases. |
D.They all aid to preserve our trees and forest. |
