    In common with many countries,Britain has serious environmental problems.In 1952,more than 4,000 people died in London because of the smog. The government introduced new laws to stop smog from coal fires and facto ries and the situation improved a lot.

    Today,London is much cleaner but there is a new problem：smog from cars. In December 1991,there was very little wind in London and pollution increased a lot. As a re- sult,about 160 people died from pollution in just four days.  

   Part of the problem is the new “out of town” shopping centres. In the past,people often walked to shops near their home or went by bus. Now,many people drive to the new shopping centres. As a result,the small shops have disappeared and more people have to travel to do their shopping.

   Critics say that Britain needs better and cheaper public transport. Transport in Britain is very expensive. An early morning train trip from Glasgow to London ( about 600km ) v can cost about £ 100,for example. A short 15-minute bus trip can cost over £ 1. 00. 

   Many people are trying to reduce the use of cars in Britain. Some cities now have special bicycle paths and many people cycle to work. Some people also travel to work together in one car to reduce the pollution and the cost.

     How green are you? Do you know how to be green?

     We all need a healthy environment,but we produce waste every day and it is harmful to our environment.Though we are young,we can still do something to help. Here are some ideas for you.

   Reduce

   Reduce means “use lessDon’t waste things. This saves money and reduces pollution. Before we buy something new,think whether it is reallv necessary—or maybe the old one is still useful.

    Reuse

    Reuse means “use again”. When we buy things,make sure that they can last a long time. When something is broken,we should repair it instead of throwing it away and buy-ing a new one. Don’t use a paper cup or a paper bag. It's better to use a china (瓷) cup and a lunch box because you can use them again.

     Recycle

     Recycle means “ change things into something else ” . Though it takes energy to change something into something else,it's better than throwing things away or burning them.

   So please remember these words： reduce,reuse and recycle.
