Task 3: ( Solar Taxi) I believe that the Solar-powered taxi was a good idea which invented by the engineer Louis Palmer. Because it was powered only by solar energy which means you can save the petrol and reduce the climate pollution,  also it is more environmentally-friendly technologies.
Task 2:( Kyoto Protocol)  In my opinion Kyoto protocol is a good model for other treaties. Because it was an international treaty and was signed by nearly all nations , also it was a good treaty to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and save the climate.

 TASK 1. (Greener World). In my opinion,  recycling is very  important, because it helps to reduce the pollution caused by waste. Also the recycling  reduces the need of raw materials. Recycling makes  the environmet cleaner place.
In addition, recycling different materials helps the environmet by reducing the use of natural resources. For example, recycling paper goods reduces the number of trees cut down each year.
