Plant-based Bottles
Eeeew! Gross! Look at these dirty plastic bottles that washed up on the sand!
沙灘上有好多塑膠瓶。
I wanted to spend a nice day at the beach, but it's ruined because there is
so much plastic garbage in the ocean!
Scientists say eight million metric tons of plastic are thrown into the ocean
every year. 專家統計,每年有800萬噸塑膠被丟到海裡。
It's a good thing that there are some companies that are trying to fix this
problem.
They want to help reduce plastic waste by using bottles made from plants!
有很多公司想用植物做的瓶罐,來取代塑膠!
A lot of famous and big companies, like Coca-Cola, want to change the way
they package their drinks.
So in the future, when you buy soda, you might be getting your drink in a
paper bottle. It will not be in a plastic bottle.
以後可樂,可能是用紙瓶子裝,不是塑膠瓶。
The paper bottles can be recycled, and can naturally break down within a
year. This is good, because plastic bottles do not break down easily. Plastic
bottles stay in the environment as garbage for a very long time.
紙瓶子可以回收,一年內就會分解,但是塑膠不容易分解。
What do you think? Do you think you'll enjoy drinking soda from a paper
bottle? 你會希望用紙瓶子喝飲料嗎? 看看喔!

Man Floats for 14 Hours
Have you noticed that if you take a long bath or go swimming for a while that
your fingers go wrinkly? 在水裡太久,手指頭是不是會變皺皺的。
It doesn't actually take that much time. About 5 minutes is all it takes. So
I'm sure the person in today's story had really wrinkly fingers, because he
was in water for 14 hours! 在水裡面14個小時, 他的手一定超皺的!
Why? Well, the man is a sailor, and he fell overboard from his ship in the
middle of the night! 這個水手半夜掉進海裡!
No one on the ship noticed. And the man wasn't wearing a lifejacket, so after
a while, he started to get tired trying to stay afloat in the water. Uh-oh!
But then, the man noticed a small black dot. He swam towards it. Luckily, the
black dot was a fishing buoy! 他看到遠方有個小黑點,就朝著它游過去.
好險!那是一個漁業浮筒!
The man held on to the buoy and just floated around in the ocean. Until,
finally, the people on his ship noticed he was missing, turned around, and
picked him up! 他抱著浮筒在海上漂,一直到船上的人發現他不見,轉回來接他。
The man was very tired, but he was safe. So what about the buoy? Did the man
keep it? It did save his life.
Nope, he said he left it in the ocean for the next person that falls
overboard! Let's hope it won't be needed!
