[安徽黄山2021高一期末]When an empty parking spot appears before us, many of us would see it for what it is—a place that could be filled with cars and trucks.But to eco-engineer Shubhendu Sharma, it's a space to be planted with trees and turned into a forest.
What's more, he believes these tiny forests can grow anywhere, including our most crowded and polluted cities where they can help maintain clean air and water and provide habitat for animals and insects.“A forest is not an isolated piece of land where animals live together,” says Sharma.“A forest can be a complete part of our urban existence.” Most of us know just how important trees are to our health and to the planet.Yet millions of hectares of forest are cleared every year due to farming, ranching, logging and construction.The World Wildlife Fund estimates that 20 percent of the Amazon rainforest and surrounding ecosystems have already been lost.
Inspired by the work of Japanese scientist Akira Miyawaki, Sharma built a forest in the backyard of his family's home in northern India in 2010.He planted 100 young trees in the 75-square-metre plot.They grew and a dozen species of birds came to check them out.The plantings created welcome shade, and their roots were able to absorb even the abundant monsoon (季风) rains.After a year, he had his own forest.Since then, Sharma has founded a company called Afforestt.Its top priority is to bring back natural forests to places where they no longer exist.So far, Afforestt has planted 144 forests in 45 cities around the world.Sharma has shown you can take a space—the size of six or seven parking spots and create a forest with 100 trees.Ready to create your own tiny forest?If your answer is yes, let's follow Sharma's 5-step procedures to grow our own forests.

[山东泰安一中2022高一期中]In recent times, with the advent of electric cars, the idea of fueling them with solar energy also gained momentum.Electric cars—even though they run on electricity and don't use fossil fuels—are still NOT GREEN! People suffer from the misconception that not using fossil fuels means “green” which is kind of absurd, considering the electricity we use is generated by burning the very same fuels!
However, what if your car had solar panels that could charge it Now that would indeed be a green machine! Basically, as much as we would like to incorporate this energy source into our car, the efficiency of the currently used solar panels is subject to the fulfilment of different criteria.
Firstly, solar panels occupy a large amount of area.An average car has an area of 10—25 square feet on the roof, which can generate between 50—150W under ideal conditions.This is hardly enough power to light a bulb! Also, moderate sunny temperature needs to be ideal, as extremely high temperatures can reduce the efficiency of the solar panels.Cars must work in all weather conditions, so if a solar panel limits the car's functionality, it becomes practically useless.More importantly, the cost of the panels and development required to power the electronics using the sun's energy outweighs the benefits that solar panels provide.
Most cars today that have solar roofs, use the solar energy to power only a few basic functions of the car.While there is still time before we will be able to drive cars fully powered by solar energy, there are some alternatives, such as solar power stations, which are being designed to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels for electricity.
Solar-powered vehicles are surely the future, but not the near future.As the cost of solar panels continues to fall and their efficiency increases, things will begin to look much “brighter” for this alternative and sustainable option!
