First Fully Biodegradable Shoe
Ahhh, the beach is so nice.
The sun, the ocean, the shoes….what?? Shoes?
Why are there shoes floating in the water?
海裡怎麼會有鞋子飄著呢?
How can they be floating in the ocean for so long, and still look almost
new??!
鞋子為甚麼能在海上漂這麼久,看起來還這麼新?
It's because they are not biodegradable!
"Biodegradable" means something that turns back into nature after time.
因為它不能被生物分解!生物分解就是東西會隨著時間回歸大自然。
So, wood is biodegradable, many clothes are biodegradable, and even some
kinds of metal are biodegradable.
木頭是會被分解的,有一些衣服也是,甚至有一些金屬也會被分解的。
Things that are not biodegradable can take hundreds and hundreds of years to
break down into tiny pieces, and that's bad for the earth!
過了好幾百年都不會被分解的東西,對環境不好!
But now you can buy a new kind of shoe that is 100% biodegradable!
When you throw them away, they become part of the earth again in just one
year!
但現在你能買得到百分百可以被生物分解的鞋子,他們被丟掉後,一年就會被分解!
We all need to think about what we buy and ask "Is this biodegradable?"
Ok, let me get those shoes out of the ocean.

用牙齒聽音樂?
A Piano Bitten by Thomas Edison
A piano can make beautiful music.
But if you can't hear, how do you enjoy that music?
Thomas Edison was a famous inventor (發明者).
He invented some of the things that we use every day.
He made a better light bulb.
He made a phonograph, which could record sounds and play it back.
And he made a motion picture machine, which made very short movies.
But Edison also faced many challenges.
He lost almost all his hearing when he was 12 years old.
But he was not discouraged (灰心).
He believed this helped him focus on his work.
And he also found a way to enjoy piano music.
Edison would lean in (靠近) close to the piano.
And he would BITE the piano!
By pressing his teeth into the wood of the piano, he could feel vibrations in
his skull.
當有人彈奏時,愛迪生會用牙齒咬住琴鍵正上方的木頭,感受音樂的震動。
Edison called it "hearing through my teeth".
And recently, a man in the U.S. bought a piano that may have Edison's teeth
marks on it!
Robert Friedman collects old pianos.
Last year, he bought a black piano that was owned by Edison.
And on the wood just above the piano keys, there are some shallow marks
(淺的痕跡).
Robert hopes the piano can be put somewhere, so everyone can see it.

埃及的另類金字塔
A New Kind of Pyramid in Egypt
Egypt is known for its big pyramids.
The pyramids were built thousands of years ago, to remember their kings, also
known as pharaohs (法老王(古埃及國王)).
Today, a new kind of pyramid can now be found in Egypt's Western Desert.
This new pyramid wasn't built to honor (尊敬) any king.
It was built to spotlight (使公眾注意) plastic pollution.
The new pyramid took five days to build.
It weighs 20 tonnes (公噸).
It is taller than a three-story building.
這個塑膠瓶做的金字塔有三層樓高。
And it was made with one million plastic bottles!
All of the bottles were collected from the Nile River (尼羅河) which is found
in Egypt.
One of the people that helped build the pyramid says it shows how serious the
problem of plastic pollution is.
The plastic pyramid was built in Egypt because the world's presidents and
prime ministers are there to talk about climate change.
That meeting is called COP27.
The pyramid's builders are hoping their special project shows world leaders
how important it is to deal with the climate crisis.
