Creates jobs.Five Important Reasons Why People Should RecycleA. _________________________Recycling means that some materials are sorted, collected, processed and thenmanufactured and sold as new products.
It sometimes takes less energy to make productsfrom recycled materials. Recycled aluminum, for example, takes 95% less energy than newaluminum from bauxite ore.B.__________________________The recycling could be one of the less expensive waste management methods for cities.C. __________________________253When the materials that you recycle go into new products, there is no need to place wasteinto land.D. __________________________Recycling supplies valuable raw materials to industry. By making products from recycledmaterials we save land and reduce the need drill for oil and dig for minerals.E. __________________________Making products from recycled materials causes less air and water pollution than makingfrom virgin materials.
But only if the appropriate technologies are used.__________ (5)9. Reading and writing.Read the article. Write a summary (100-150 words) paying attention to the followingpoints.1. the problem the article raises and what causes the problem.2. the possible solutions.3. the actions that have been taken.4.the emissions targets that have been set by the governments.Reducing Greenhouse Gas EmissionsScientific research has shown that the global climate change we have seen over thelast 50 years is very likely the result of human activity. The way we consume energy andthe way we produce it poses definite threats to the world we live in.
It is vital to reducegreenhouse gas emissions so that climate change slows and people have more time toswitch to environmentally friendly energy generation technologies.The development and application of more efficient energy generation technologies isone of the possible strategies for cutting emissions along with the introduction of higherstandards of energy efficiency for electrical appliances, lighting, heating and airconditioning systems, buildings, cars, etc. Another strategy is using alternative energysources with low or zero emission levels, such as solar and wind energy, hydroelectricpower, biomass, etc. Besides, expanding forests, we can slow the rate of global warmingbecause green plants take carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere, release oxygen and storecarbon in a safe way.The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, which was signedby 165 states in 1994, is a document which sets a framework for international efforts toslow global warming and to develop strategies to adapt to its consequences.
Thegovernments who have ratified the Convention are committed to produce annualinventories of greenhouse gas emissions and Climate action reports. An inventory ofgreenhouse gas emissions represents the nation’s emission figures, provides an overvie ofemission trends, and discusses primary drivers for changes in emissions. A climate actionreport provides a broad overview of all greenhouse gas emission sources, and reviewsnational policies to limit emissions.The Kyoto Protocol is the second international treaty on climate change, which wasadopted on 16 February 2005. The pact sets greenhouse gas emission targets forIndustrialized nations who ratify it.
They are committed to reduce worldwide emissions ofsix greenhouse gases (collectively) by an average of 5.2% below their 1990 levels by theperiod 2008-2012. Developing countries do not have to cut emissions seeing that such acommitment would make their economical situation worse, but they are encouraged tocarry out inventories. _____ (23)25410.
