Охраны окружающей среды должны быть глобальные

Что проблема загрязнения и экологии стала наиболее важным для человечества очевидны для всех. Чем больше цивилизация развивается, тем больше экологические проблемы становятся загрязнение воздуха и воды в промышленности в настоящее время достиг огромных масштабов. В нашу эпоху она меняется от Национального на международной проблемой, особенно на территориях, где реки пересекают несколько стран, морей и океанов дуги также становятся серьезно загрязнены аналогичная ситуация складывается и в атмосфере известно, что во многих городах мира страдают от загрязнения воздуха.

Однако наши научные знания и технический прогресс позволяют устранить его, если люди используют хорошо will1 и сделать значительные инвестиции для этой цели освоения природных ресурсов на глобальном уровне уже можно с научной и технической точки зрения. Крупномасштабные экспериментальной работы в этой области успешно осуществляется.

В настоящее время ученые в промышленно развитых странах работают по теории взаимодействия всех атмосферных и океанических глобальных процессов, которые определяют климат и погоду мира увеличение роста населения, индустриализации и использования ресурсов медленно, но верно изменения глобального климата и водный баланс. Это может быть описано как большой эксперимент, одно, что может привести к изменениям в окружающей среде более серьезными, чем когда-либо прежде.

Существенная особенность в защите окружающей среды заключается в том, что многие проблемы можно решена только на уровне мировых community3. Поэтому планирование защиты от загрязнения человеческого общества в целом необходимо сегодня и в ближайшем будущем. Необходимо разработать международную программу изучить данные о земельных, лесных, атмосферных и океанических ресурсов, как возобновляемых, так и невозобновляемых это совместные усилия многих ученых и специальных общественных организаций, которые могут иметь дело с проблемой и принять необходимые меры для защиты окружающей среды.

Это еще большая работа и многое еще предстоит done1 однако ученые уверены, что запланированные действия всех стран могут устранить загрязнение и добиться успехов в очищении воздуха, воды и почвы и в охране природных ресурсов. В то же время необходимо осознать, что социальные и политические условия, может стоять на пути дальнейшего прогресса в этой области/

1. Ответьте на следующие вопросы.
1) Что такое экология?
2) Каким образом вода загрязняется’
3) Каким образом воздух становится загрязненным’
4) Почему проблема загрязнения водных ресурсов становится глобальной проблемой’

3 ТЕКСТ/ Ecological Problems of a Big City. London

It was in Britain that the word "smog" was first used (to describe mix­ture of smoke and fog). As the world's first industrialized country, its cities were the first to suffer this atmospher­ic condition. In the XlX-th century London's "pea-soupers" (thick smogs) became famous through descriptions of them in the works of Charles Dick­ens and in the Sherlock Holmes sto­ries. The situation in London reached its worst point in 1952. At the end of that year a particularly bad smog, which lasted for several days, was estimated to have caused between 4000 and 8000 deaths.

Water pollution was also a prob­lem. In the XlX-th century it was once suggested that the Houses of Parlia­ment should be wrapped in enormous wet sheets to protect those inside from the awful smell of the River Thames. In the middle years of this century, the first tiling that happened to peo­ple who fell into the Thames was that they were rushed to hospital to have their stomachs pumped out!

Then, during the 1960s and 1970s, laws were passed which forbade the heating of homes with open coal fires in city areas and which stopped much of the pollution from factories. At one time, a scene of fog in Hollywood films was all that was necessary to symbolize London. This image is now out of date, and by the end of the 1970s it was said to be possible to catch fish in the Thames outside Par­liament.

However, as in the rest of western Europe, the great increase in the use of the motor car in the last quarter of the XX-th century has caused an in­crease in a new kind of air pollution. This problem has become so serious that the television weather forecast now regularly issues warnings of "poor air quality". On some occasions it is bad enough to prompt official advice that certain people (such as asthma suffer­ers) should not even leave their hous­es, and that nobody should take any exercise, such as jogging, out of doors.

3 /Экологические проблемы большого города. Лондон.

Это было в Великобритании, что слово "смог" был впервые использован (описать смесь дыма и тумана). В качестве первой промышленно развитой страной в мире, ее города были в первую очередь страдают это состояние атмосферы. В ХІХ-м "горошины soupers Лондон века" (толстой смоги) стал известным благодаря описаниям в произведениях Чарльза Диккенса и в рассказах о Шерлоке Холмсе. Ситуация в Лондоне достигла своего пика в 1952 году. В конце этого года особенно плохо смога, который длился несколько дней, по оценкам, нанесенный между 4000 и 8000 смертей.

Загрязнение воды также является проблемой. В ХІХ веке это было когда-то предположил, что здание парламента должны быть обернуты в огромные влажные простыни, чтобы защитить тех, кто внутри от ужасного запаха реки Темзы. В середине этого века, первых листов, что бывает с теми, кто упал в Темзу, что они бросились в больницу, чтобы их желудки откачали!.

Затем, в 1960-х и 1970-х годах были приняты законы, которые запрещали систем отопления домов с открытых угольных пожаров в районах города и в котором остановилась большая часть загрязнения от фабрик. В свое время, сцена туман в голливудских фильмах было все, что необходимо, чтобы символизировать Лондон. Этот образ устарел, и к концу 1970-х годов было сказано, что можно ловить рыбу в Темзе перед зданием парламента.

Однако, как и в остальной части Западной Европы, значительное увеличение использования автомобиля в последней четверти ХХ века привел к росту нового вида загрязнения воздуха. Эта проблема стала настолько серьезной, что прогноз погоды на телевидении сейчас регулярно выпускает предупреждения "плохое качество воздуха". В некоторых случаях это достаточно плохо, чтобы запрашивать рекомендации, что определенные люди (например, астматиков) не должны даже покинуть свои дома, и что никто не должен принимать каких-либо упражнений, таких как бег, вышел из двери.

4 текст /How Can We Contribute to Solve the Rubbish Problem?

Here are some ways to beat the throw-away society. All of them are cleaner and cheaper than burying rub­bish.

1. Throw away less rubbish.

In Denmark, for example, it's ille­gal to sell drinks in cans. And it's not just governments which can produce less rubbish. It's ordinary people, too. For example, anyone can decide to:

· buy products with as little pack­aging as possible;

· use and throw away fewer plas­tic bags;

· waste less paper.

2. Turn rubbish into energy.

How'? By burning it. The use of rubbish as fuel is a good idea because

it:

· saves fossil fuels;

· means burying less rubbish;

· cuts pollution.

Energy from rubbish is cleaner and cheaper than energy from fossil fuels. Every year millions of tones of rubbish are dumped into the ground. It could be used instead to generate electricity, create heat for industrial purposes, or heat hospitals, schools, public build­ings or even whole districts.

3. Use rubbish again.

It is possible, in fact, to recycle 80% of domestic rubbish. This includes pa­per, glass, metal and plastic. It's im­portant to increase the number of re­cycling centers. For example, there are more "bottle banks" nowadays than ever before. In many countries there are not only bottle banks but also alu­minium banks, steel banks, plastic banks, paper banks, used batteries banks, old clothes banks. Denmark has an interesting system.
