yard in the countryside.
One day, Maria was in her flat building when she noticed her neighbor, Mrs. Garcia, carrying a gardening tool and a bag of soil. Maria wondered how Mrs. Garcia was able to garden in the city.
“My mom used to grow the most delicious vegetables, and I know she misses her garden now that we don't have a yard, \" said Maria.
Mrs. Garcia laughed.“ I’ll show you，” she said.
Maria thought that Mrs. Garcia would take her to the park, but she took her to the roof(屋顶) .When the door opened, Maria was surprised to see rows of flowers and vegetables on the roof.
\" What a wonderful garden! \"said Maria.
Mrs. Garcia told Maria that for a long time the roof was just an empty space. Then some of the people in the building asked the owners to turn it into a community garden. The building owners liked the idea because the plants not only helped to keep the air clean, but they also helped to keep the building cooler during warmer weather.
“ I plant flowers in my own place，”Mrs. Garcia said，“ but you would be surprised by how different the plants are up here. Some people grow vegetables just like your mom. You can do some of the same things in the city as in the countryside.You just have to be creative!”

How do you deal with plastic bags from the supermarket? Throw them away or recycle them? How about eating them?
The bags are not harmful to the environment. Humans and animals can safely eat them. An Indian company EnviGreen has made a bag with natural materials. It looks and feels just like plastic, but can break down easily.
Ashwath Hedge who set up the EnviGreen company spent four years doing experiments (实验) with 12 natural materials. They include potato, corn, vegetable oil and banana. He made the materia into liquid(液体)and used the liquid to make the bag.
Although the EnviGreen bag is more expensive than a common plastic bag, it has many advantages. According to The Wall Street Journal, it takes 1, 000 years for common plastic bags to break down. But an EnviGreen bag can naturally break down in less than 180 days. It also breaks down in less than a day in water, and in less than a minute in boiling water. Hedge was happy to show it in his interview. He put an EnviGreen bag in water and ate it with a smile. There are more than 15, 000 tons of plastic waste in India every day. But only 9, 000 tons are processed. In China, 3 billion plastic bags are used every day. Maybe the EnviGreen bag could be a solution(解决方法) to the world problem of plastic pollution.

We need to be responsible for the environment. Being a frugal consumer(节俭的消费者) is one way to help. But, what exactly does that mean?
Use it up

You do not always need to have new things. Suppose your sneakers have broken laces (鞋带 ) , but they still fit you. Repair them and wear them longer.You don't need the latest iphone until your old one doesn't work anymore. Then you can get a new one. Think twice before replacing something that still works.
Make it do
When something you want is not on hand, look for something else that you already have to take its place. Suppose you are packing your lunch for tomorrow and want a butter sandwich. You are out of butter. What about using cheese to make a cheese sandwich? Learn to fix broken toys

instead of just throwing them away. With a little thought, you can make something do, instead of buying something new. Do without
Think about all those things that you would like to have. Do you really need them? How long will you really play with that new toy you saw on TV? Making the things that we want uses resources(资源). And, getting rid of the things we don’t want anymore takes up even more resources and space.

Lower Carbon, Happier Life
It's our duty to protect the environment. The environment is becoming worse and worse. We must do something to stop people from polluting the environment. First, we can ride to school or go to school on foot and tell our parents to ride bikes to work instead of driving the car. Second, we should save water and electricity by turning off the taps and lights in time when we don't need them. Third, give the old books to the next grade students if we don't use them any more. By doing this, we can save many trees. Last, remember to go shopping with a basket rather than plastic bags. I believe our life will become better and better if we can do these things.
Lower carbon, happier life. Let’s take action.
