Why is green living encouraged in local councils in Britain?
We all know that humans are damaging the environment, but what can we do about it? Some people are trying to do their bit to try to be more environmentally friendly. Local councils in Britain encourage certain aspects of green living, such as recycling paper, tin, plastic and glass. They want to reduce the amount of rubbish going into landfill sites, because they are running out of places to dump rubbish. In some areas rubbish for recycling is collected from your doorstep, but in other areas, you have to take it to a special recycling place, such as a bottle bank.
Another way of reducing the amount of rubbish you create is to use reusable products instead of disposable ones. For example, some people use strong shopping bags or boxes for their groceries instead of plastic carrier bags, or use washable nappies instead of disposables.
More people are becoming interested in reducing their carbon footprint-the amount of carbon they use up. They try to reduce their carbon emissions by cycling, using public transport or an electric car, rather than driving gas-guzzling vehicles. Some people choose not to fly to go on holiday because aeroplanes are the biggest producers of carbon emissions.
选项
A、Catching a bus.
B、Going cycling.
C、Driving electric car.
D、Going on holiday by air.
答案
D
解析
细节题。短文最后写到,很多人开始对减少碳足迹很感兴趣,他们试图通过骑自行车、坐公共交通工具或电动车来代替高耗油的机动车。而有些人选择不坐飞机旅行,因为飞机是最大的碳排放制造者。显然坐飞机旅行不能减碳,即D项为正确答案。
