Denmark to make artificial 1 clean-energy island
Denmark has come up with this practical idea to help its clean energy needs.It isexpected to be in full operation by 2033. The island will be roughly the size of 18 footballfields. Much of the energy will come from wind farms.

To built roads out of plastic
Plastic roads are being tested and built in more and more countries as the world'splastic pollution problem becomes more acutely4 felt. A growing number of studies say thatroads containing waste plastic may perform better than traditional roads. They can last longer,and are stronger.
A concern 5 about plastic roads is that they will shed 6 microplastics. Some scientists saythey don't see microplastics as a problem. They view plastic roads as "a promising advance".
利用塑料建造道路
隨著世界塑料污染問題變得越來越嚴(yán)峻,越來越多的國(guó)家正在測(cè)試和建造塑料道路。越來越多的研究表明,含有廢塑料的道路有可能比傳統(tǒng)道路更好用。它們更耐用,并且更結(jié)實(shí)。
人們對(duì)塑料道路的一種憂慮是,它們會(huì)掉落塑料微粒。一些科學(xué)家說,他們不認(rèn)為塑料微粒是一個(gè)問題。他們認(rèn)為塑料道路是“有潛力的發(fā)展方向”。
