We live in a time of technological progress, which in many ways makes life easier thanks to new and useful inventions. But these achievements of humanity have a downside - the consequences of this progress directly affect the ecological situation of the environment around the world.
Many factories, factories and other production facilities constantly emit harmful substances into the atmosphere, pollute reservoirs with their waste, as well as the earth when they dispose of their waste in the ground. And this is reflected not only locally in the place of waste disposal, but also throughout our planet.
The further progress is made, the more environmental problems appear, and difficulties with environmental protection are created.
На улице в английском городе полицейский останавливает машину. В машине есть посетитель от континента. Гаишник: Почему вы едете по правой стороне дороги? Посетитель: Вы хотите, чтобы я отвез на той стороне? Гаишник: Вы едете на неправильной стороне. Посетитель: Но вы сказали, что я ехал на моей правой стороне. Милиционер: Я хотел сказать, что вы были на правой, и это было неправильно. Посетитель: Странная страна. Если право не так, я прав, когда я нахожусь на неправильной стороне. Так почему же вы меня остановить? Гаишник: Мой дорогой сэр, вы должны держаться левой стороны. Правая сторона остается. Посетитель: Ну, я хочу пойти в Беллвуд. Вы скажете мне путь Гаишник: Конечно. В конце дороги повернуть налево. Посетитель: А теперь позвольте мне думать. Поверните налево. В Англии левая правая и правая неправильно. Это ваша идея? Гаишник: Вы будете правы, если повернуть налево. Но если вы повернете направо, вы будете правы. Посетитель за объяснение. Это вполне понятно, и я буду делать все возможное, чтобы не забыть его.
