25、e to smoke.”Thats true. But there is more reason in keeping future generations of low-income workers from getting hooked in the f irst place.

In recent years the markets for sustainable products have grown by more than 50%.Governments

33、can fully develop the potential of these new markets. First, they can set high targets for reducing carbon emissions (排放 and targets for saving and reusing energy. Besides, stronger arrangement of public resources like forests can also help to speed up the development. Finally, governments can avoid
