Hundreds of years ago, life was much harder than it is today. People didn’t have modern machines. There was no modern medicine, either. However, life today has brought new problems.
One of the biggest problems is pollution. Water pollution makes our rivers and lakes dirty. It kills our fish and makes our drinking water dirty. Noise pollution makes us talk louder and become angry more easily. Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution. It’s bad for all the living things in the world. Cars, planes and factories all pollute our air every day. Sometimes the polluted air is so thick that it is like a quilt(被子) over the city. This kind of quilt is called smog(烟).
Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. Factories must now clean their water before it is poured away. They mustn’t blow( 吹) dirty smoke into the air. We need to do many other things. We can put waste things in the dustbin and not throw them on the ground. We should go to work by bus or with our friends in the same car.

We need to do many other things. We can put waste things in the dustbin and do not throw them on the ground. We can go to work by bus with our friends in the same car. If there are fewer people driving, there will be less pollution.

Green World is a company which sells health and beauty products. In May 2021, Green World began a program that rewards（奖励）customers for recycling empty product packaging（包装）. In a few months, Green World recycled more than a ton of plastic.
Should governments give rewards for recycling too? The TV station did a survey among the students from a local school. Here’s what three of them said.
Mike, 13
People should be rewarded for recycling. San Francisco has a program that rewards recycling, and it works best in the United States. By rewarding recycling, many cities would be cleaner.
Peter, 14
Even though people don’t recycle enough, they know that the best reward is providing a cleaner environment for the future world. Rewards will only encourage people to use more plastic products.
Anne, 12
