If
you
were
to
choose,
what
would
be
your
favorite
energy
source?
Susan:
Well,
I
would
choose
wind
energy.
Daniel:
But
there
have
been
concerns
relating
to
the
impacts
of
wind
farms.
Susan:
I
know
what
you
mean.
There
has
been
some
opposition
to
the
construction
of
wind
farms.
Daniel:
Yes,
there
are
concerns
that
some
wind
farmscan
negatively
affect
TV
and
radio
reception,as
well
as
producing
excessive
noiseleading
to
a
decrease
in
property
values.
And
thereareconcerns
that
wind
farms
are
a
threat
to
birds.
NextpageSusan:
Yes,
but
that’s
only
part
of
the
story.
In
fact,
residents
in
someareas
have
been
more
positive
and
there
are
many
examples
of
community
wind
farm
developments.
For
example,
an
overwhelming
majority
of
local
people
believe
that
the
Ardrossan
Wind
Farm
in
Scotland
has
enhanced
the
area.
Daniel:
That’s
encouraging.
Susan:
Yes.
Community
concerns
regarding
wind
power
projects
are
based
more
on
people’s
perception
rather
than
actual
fact.
In
tourist
areas,
for
example,
peopleoftenthinkthat
wind
farms
will
negatively
affect
tourism.
Yet
surveys
conducted
in
tourist
areas
in
Germany
and
Scotland
show
that
this
is
simply
not
the
case.
Daniel:
Then
what’s
the
problem
in
developing
wind
power?
NextpageSCRIPTSusan:
The
problem
is
that
the
general
public
often
does
not
have
ready
access
totheinformation
necessary
to
assess
the
pros
and
cons
of
wind
power
development.
If
the
wind
farms
are
properly
planned
and
sited,
the
public
attitude
generally
alters
after
the
wind
projects
become
operational.
In
Europe
and
many
other
countries
there
has
been
strong
public
support
for
wind
power.
Daniel:
This
is
good
news.

Hello,
Rob.
Youlovegoodfood,
don’t
you?
Rob:
Yes,
I
do.
I
have
always
had
a
taste
for
nice
food.
Cathy:
But
how
much
of
it
do
you
actually
throw
away?
Rob:
Probably
too
much
although
I’m
trying
to
get
better
at
that.
Cathy:
I’m
asking
you
this
because
many
people
around
the
world
throw
away
food
that’s
still
good
enough
to
eat
–
this
food
waste
could
feed
millions
of
people.
Rob:
Yes,
food
waste
is
a
big
problem.
NextpageSCRIPTCathy:
You
know
what,
according
to
aUnited
Nations’
report,
around
30percent
of
food
is
actually
wasted
around
the
world.
In
Europe,
people
throw
awayabout100
million
tons
of
food
every
year.
Food
waste
is
also
a
huge
issue
in
America
–around40percentof
all
food
goes
uneaten.
Rob:
Wow,
such
a
big
waste.
In
many
other
parts
of
the
world
people
struggle
to
buy
food.
Cathy:
A
report
by
the
United
Nationshasfound
that
there
is
in
fact
enough
food
for
everyone,
butthereisjust
too
much
waste.
Rob:
Many
people
tend
to
buy
more
food
than
they
needbecauseoftheconvenienceandchoicethatsupermarketsoffer.
But
a
lot
of
food
is
stored
in
fridges
and
then
thrown
out
long
before
it
reaches
the
end
of
its
shelf
life.
NextpageSCRIPTCathy:
Yes.
Sometimes
we
may
throw
away
some
fruits
and
vegetables
just
because
of
their
shape
and
size.
And
that’s
our
fault
really,
because
we
often
think
food
that
looks
good
is
of
better
quality.Rob:
So
what
can
be
done?
Cathy:
Well,
things
are
being
done.
Apps
and
websites
that
distribute
excess
food
are
becoming
more
popular.
Charitable
organizations
are
being
set
up
forpeopletodonate
foodto.
Thefoodisthen
distributed
to
those
who
have
difficulty
buying
their
own
food.
Rob:
I
hope
everyone
in
the
world
can
get
fed.
