保护环境，从我做起1我们经常听到“要善待我们的地球母亲。”然而，这句话假设了一个前提，即人类可以控制地球。2我们当然是不能的。3当气候发生变化，地球可以继续存在，而人类呢？人类无法存活。4所以我们需要保护环境，不仅仅是因为信念，也是为了人类种族的绵延。TextA5Thegreatestchallengethathumanity5

6节约、再利用、回收——这是践行低碳生活方式很好的口诀指南。确保我们一直保持节能的习惯可以大大减少我们的碳足迹。不需要的时候，及时把灯和电视关掉。淋浴的时候尽量快一些。修理滴水的水龙头，不要白白浪费水。TextA7Tolivealow-carbonlife,wearealsosupposedtodolessshopping.Whenwegoshopping,wemaydriveacarortakeothertransportation.Ontheonehand,certaintransportationpollutestheairandwastesenergy.Ontheotherhand,mostofusalwaysbuyuseless17

7过低碳生活，我们还应该减少购物频次。我们购物的时候，势必要开车或是乘坐一些公共交通。一方面，某些交通工具会污染空气和耗费能源，另一方面，我们大多数人买到的东西总是不必要的营销商品。买这些非必需品不仅浪费钱，而且还会给地球带来负担。因为这些产品的生产和运输也会增加碳排放并且造成污染。因此，我们应该负责任地购物，倾向于购买容易回收的物品。避免购买单独包装的物品。大批量购买有助于减少浪费。TextA8Ifwecanmakethelow-carbonlifestyleahabitinourdailylives,theEarthwillbecomeasaferplanetforustoliveon.So,let’sbeginwithourselves,dowhateverwecantomakeourmotherEarthabetterplace.Believeme,itisnotastough22

8如果我们把低碳的生活方式作为我们日常的生活习惯，地球将成为我们更安全的家园。所以，让我们从自己开始，尽我们所能让我们的地球母亲变得更好。相信我，这并不像我们想象的那么难，所有人都能做的很出色。动口不如动手，开始行动吧！TextANewWords1.presumption/prɪ'zʌmpʃn/n.假设；假定2.simply/'sɪmpli/adv.（强调某说法）确实；（强调简单）仅仅3.existence/ɪg'zɪstəns/n.存在；实有4.species/'spiːʃiːz/n.物种5.humanity/hjuː'mænəti/n.人；人类6.drastic/'dræstɪk/adj.极端的；急剧的；猛烈的7.catastrophe/kə'tæstrəfi/n.灾难；灾祸8.greenhouse/'ɡriːnhaʊs/n.温室；暖房9.chemical/'kemɪkl/n.化学制品；化学品10.mantra/'mæntrə/n.（经常重复的）口号（或言论）11.efficient/ɪ'fɪʃnt/adj.效率高的；有能力的12.footprint/'fʊtprɪnt/n.（某物所占的）空间量；面积；足迹★e.g.Sheconjecturedtheexistenceofacompletelynewspecies.她推测有一个全新物种存在。

走向绿色——利于地球，利于企业1企业需要帮助消费者更加易于做出环境保护的行为——这才是一个双赢的局面。2世界各地的企业正越来越多地响应一件全球性需求：消费者对环保的需求。有一项国际调查显示，超过80%的人尊重做出环保行为的公司和品牌。3调查显示，三分之一的消费者希望产品包装上能呈现一些更加清晰的信息，如回收、堆肥相关的信息，还可以多提供一些有关可持续性的信息，这些信息能够促成他们的环保性购物。TextB4Bymakingiteasierforconsumers,businessescanprofit.Ashoecompany,forinstance,unitedwithParleyfortheOceanstoproduce7,000limitededition9sneakers10

4通过让消费者更方便，企业也可以从中获利。例如，一家制鞋公司与ParleyfortheOceans合作，生产了7000双原材料均为海洋中回收的塑料垃圾的限量版运动鞋。这款运动鞋一经面世，立即销售一空，制鞋公司计划再生产500万双，预计收益10亿美元。5环保对公司而言还有另外几个好处，包括税收抵免和生产激励、工作效率的提高、工作环境的优化以及成本的节约。例如减少打印量，空房间要熄灯和替换使用墨盒。各类物品的重复使用还可以减少塑料包装垃圾。TextB6Everybusinesscandoitsshare.Acoffeesleeve16
