The green light In Australia it is now illegal to use traditional light bulbs. The whole country is changing to low energy bulbs for their lights. This will reduce the amount of energy that each home uses and will obviously be better for the environment. And Australia is not the only country doing this. Will your country be next? So, what are the advantages and disadvantages of using the new low energy bulbs? Of course, the main advantage is for the environment. If all houses in the UK used these bulbs the effect on the environment would be the same as taking three quarters of a million cars off the road! Cost is another advantage. If we changed all the bulbs in our houses, we could cut our energy bills by fifty per cent! There are a few disadvantages however. The light that these bulbs give is not exactly the same as light from traditional bulbs. It’s colder and whiter. Some people don’t like it very much. Also, the light doesn’t come on immediately. After switching on the light you have to wait a short time. Another disadvantage for some people is that at the moment you can’t make these bulbs give a stronger or weaker light by using a special switch. But scientists say this will soon be possible. But if we can help the environment by using these bulbs, are the disadvantages really such a problem? 8 Are the sentences true or false? 1 In Australia you can choose which bulbs to use. ___ 2 It’s expensive to use low energy bulbs. ___ 3 It takes longer for the light to come on. ___ 4 The light from these bulbs is quite weak. ___ 5 The light from traditional bulbs is different. ___ 9 Imagine you are organising a talk about saving energy. Design an announcement for the talk. Include the following information: • describe the problem • say what the talk will be about • say when and where it is

Our problem is not too big, but we need to pay attention to energy saving. We need to come up with a work plan to use less energy, for example, take the inexhaustible resources of our planet. Take the sun, for example. We all know that this source does not exhaust. You need to come up with a light bulb that will be charged during the day, and at night, if you wish, you could somehow turn it on. Right now we need to work out a plan for this idea. Country production - any. Prepared for the process!

Перевод

Наша проблема не слишком велика, но нужно обратить внимание на экономию энергии. Нам нужно придумать план работы чтобы меньше использовать энергию, например взять неисчерпаемые ресурсы нашей планеты. Например взять солнце. Все мы знаем что данный источник не исчерпаем. Нужно придумать лампочку, которая будет заряжаться днём, а ночью по желанию можно было её как-то включить. Прям сейчас нужно выработать план данной идеи. Производство страны -  любое. Приготовились к процессу!
