Прочитайте и переведите текст, обращая внимание напроработанную грамматику уроков 1-3.Save the PlanetToday's global economy has been formed by market, not by theprinciples of ecology. This has created an economy that is destroy­ing its natural support system (система естественной поддерж­ки). It is eco-economy that we need today to save the planet. Aneco-economy is one that satisfies our needs without affecting theprospects of future generations to meet their needs. Therefore, it isnecessary to turn our economy into in eco-economy.

To build aneco-economy means to restore carbon balance, to stabilize popula­tion and water use, and to conserve forests, soils and variety ofplant and animal life in the world.Such an eco-economy will affect every side of our lives. It willchange how we light our homes, what we eat, where we live, howwe use our free time, and how many children we have. It will giveus a world where we are a part of nature.Building a new economy means eliminating and replacing oldindustries, restructuring existing ones, and creating new ones. Thegeneration of electricity from wind is one such industry.

Soon mil­lions of turbines will be turning wind into electricity. In manycountries, wind will provide both electricity and hydrogen. To­gether, electricity and hydrogen can meet all the energy needs of amodern society.Another industry that will play an important part in the neweconomy is management of available water supply most efficiently.Irrigation technology will become more efficient. The recycling ofurban waste water will become common.

At present, waterflowsintoand out of cities, carrying waste with it. In the future, water will beused again and again, never discharged (спускать, выливать). Aswater does not lose its quality from use, there is no limit to how longit can be used, as long as (пока) it is cleaned before reuse.One can easily see eco-economy changes in some countries. Itis known that Denmark is the eco-economy leader. It has stabilisedits population, banned (запрещать) the construction of coal powerplants, banned the use of non-refiUable drink containers, and isnow getting 15 per cent of its electricity from wind. Besides, it hasrestructured its urban transport networks; now 32 per cent of all tripsin Copenhagen are on bicycles.

Denmark is still not close (near) tobalancing carbon emission, but it is moving in that direction.B. Speak about:Your idea of the economy of the future.61LESSON 4Согласование временДополнениеДополнительные придаточные предложенияСуффикс -ible/'ableПрефикс disТекст 4А.Текст 4В.Текст 4С.Текст 4D.TelevisionTelegraphTelephoneTalking via SpaceПРЕДТЕКСТОВЫЕ УПРАЖНЕНИЯУпражнение 1.
