Before the grass has thickened on the roadsides and leaves have started growing onthe trees is a perfect time to look around and see just how dirty Britain has become. Thepavements are stained with chewing gum and the ditches are full of discarded fast foodpackets. Years ago Iremember traveling abroad and being saddened by the plastic bagsand discarded bottles. owadays, Britain seems to look at least as bad. What has gonewrong?

The problem is that the rubbish created by our increasingly mobile lives lasts a lotlonger than before. If it is not cleared up and properly thrown away, it stays in theundergrowth(下层灌木 ) foryears.

It is estimated that 10 billion plastic bags have been given to shoppers. These willtake anything from 100 to 1,000 years to rot However, it is not as it there is no solutionto this. A few years ago, the Irish government introduced a tax on non-recyclable carrierbags and in three months reduced their use by 90%. When he was a minister, MichaelMeacher attempted to introduce a similar arrangement in Britain. The plastics industryprotested, ofcourse. However, they need not have bothered; the idea was killed before itcoulddrawbreath,leavingsupermarkets free to give away plastic bags.

What is clearly necessary right now is some sort of combined action, bothindividual and collective,before it is too late.The alternative is to continue slidingdownhill untilwehaveacountrythatlooks like a vast rubbishtip. Wemaywellbeatthetippingpoint.Yetweknowthatpeoplerespondtotheirenvironment.Ifthings around them are clean and tidy, people behave cleanly and tidily. If they are surroundedby rubbish,they behave like rubbish.Now,much of Britain looks pretty dirty.Whatwill it look like in five years? 26.What might be the best title for the passage? A.PlasticBags B.Environment Protection
