In recent years, plastic pollution has become one of the most serious environmental problems around the world. Many countries have been looking for ways for a better future. On November 7, 2022, China started a "bamboo instead of plastic"activity with the International Network for Bamboo and Rattan (INBAR 国际竹藤组织).This will hopefully increase the use of green bamboo products and reduce(减少) plastic pollution.
Bamboo is a renewable natural resource of great value. Unlike trees which usually need so long time to fully grow, bamboo can be harvested （收割） in 3 to 5 years.As long as it is protected well, bamboo can be cut every year and doesn't have to be replanted. Bamboo can be used to ① different kinds of products.These products can take the place of plastic products in many fields, such as packaging,building and daily things. Even a new bamboo washing machine has been invented in some ② areas where people don't have electricity or money to buy traditional washing machines. It uses the natural flow of the water as power to run the machine. It's believed that bamboo is a harmless material. It doesn't cause any pollution when it has to be thrown away.
China is one of the countries with the richest bamboo resources in the world. The Chinese are a pioneer in the use of bamboo. Provinces Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hunan and Guizhou have setup companies to produce and develop bamboo products. What's more, China is also sharing its technologies and experience to help other countries with rich bamboo resources. It is hoped that countries will work together③ development around the world.green

Napoga is a 12-year-old girl in Ghana(加纳)Africa. It is hard for her family to get clean water. Every morning, she leaves home at half past five to get clean water for her family in a village far away. 22. It takes her six hours to get enough clean water for daily cooking and drinking. She has no time to go to school or to play with her friends. Millions of people in the world are like Napoga. They can't get enough clean water to keep healthy.
Earth Day is on April 22. But on all other days, we must also remember it. The water we use is the most important natural resource(自然资源)on the earth.Why Water covers 70%of the earth's surface(表面)， but most of that is sea water. We can't use it for very many things. Fresh water covers only 1% of the earth's surface.
23.你可能会感到幸运，你的生活没有Napoga的那么艰难。But that doesn't mean you don't have to worry about water. We all face serious water problems. One of them is water pollution.All kinds of things from cars, factories, farms and homes make our rivers, lakes, and oceans dirty. 24.Polluted water is very bad for people to drink. And dirty water is bad for fish, too. Now,34% of all kinds of fish are dying out.
How do cars and factories make our water dirty First, they pollute the air. Then, when it rains, the rain water comes down and makes our drinking water dirty. Dirty rain, called acid rain(酸雨), is also bad for plants, animals and buildings.
Scientists say that in 30 years, more than half of the people in the world won't have enough clean water.25.我们必须学习如何为自己节约更多的水。
