The fast-fd giant said that it has already decreased the use f virgin fssil fuel-based plastic in its tys by 30% wrldwide since 2018 after starting the prcess in markets like France, the United Kingdm and Ireland.
Mre than 100 cuntries wrldwide sell Happy Meals at McDnald’s lcatins. The burger chain began selling the meals in 1979. In 2018, after widespread cncern abut children’s meals at fast-fd restaurants, the cmpany revamped its ptins t selectins that were lwer ị n calries, sdium, saturated fat and sugar.
Murray said children and parents alike have been asking fr mre sustainable tys. In 2019,tw British schl children started a petitin (请愿书) that generated internatinal attentin asking McDnald’s and Burger King t cancel the plastic tys in their children’s meal deals.
Sme tys, like bard game pieces, will be made with plant derived (植物提取的) r recycled material. Others will have mre significant changes t their appearance. Superhers and mvie characters will be 3-D cututs at her than plastic figurines. The cmpany is als lking int switching frm plastic wrapping t plant-based and certified fiber packaging.
“As yu can imagine, ur entire supply chain has t change with this,” Murray said. “It has been a massive undertaking, and we’re really just changing the way we d ur Happy Meals.”
McDnald’s chief sustainability fficer Jenny McCllch said the cmpany has already been learning frm feedback in France, the UK and Ireland, where the tys have already rlled ut. The gal is t make sure they are safe and sturdy enugh fr children.
Accrding t McCllch, the mre sustainable tys will begin rlling ut widely in the US by January. The fast-fd giant is als lking fr ways t recycle the ld plastic Happy Meal tys within its restaurants.

T assess prtected-area impact n wildlife, a team led by researchers frm the UK examined waterbird data frm 1,506 prtected areas and analyzed mre than 27,000 bird ppulatins acrss the wrld. They cmpared waterbird ppulatins befre and after the establishment f prtected areas and als cmpared trends f similar ppulatins within and utside f prtected areas.
“Our study shws that, while many prtected areas are wrking well, many thers are failing t have a psitive effect,” lead authr Hannah Wauchpe f the University f Exeter says in a statement. “In the majrity f places we lked at, bird ppulatins were stable r were increasing, but sme f them weren’t ding any better than in unprtected areas,” she adds. “That’s disappinting, but nt surprising. There seems t be the discnnectin between peple talking abut hw much land is prtected and whether thse areas are actually ding anything psitive.”
This study cmes ahead f a United Natins meeting in China t discuss bidiversity (生物多样性) gals fr the next decade. Several cuntries have already cmmitted t prtecting 30 percent f the planèt by 2030, yet the researchers say this alne des nt necessarily guarantee psitive utcmes fr species.
“An bsessin (迷恋) with reaching a certain area-based target—such as 30 percent by2030-withut fcus n managing existing prtected areas apprpriately will achieve little.” c-authr Julia Jnes frm Bangr University says. “When wrld leaders gather in China later this year t set targets fr the next decade, I really hpe t see a change f their fcus rather than simply saying hw much surface area they are ging t prtect.”
Accrding t Thmas Brks chief scientist at the Internatinal Unin fr Cnservatin f Nature, wh was nt invlved in the study, waterbirds are a gd example f a grup facing the cnsequences f human behaviurs that cause bidiversity lss. These animals respnd quickly t changes in site quality and are bradly distributed, clearly reflecting the impact f prtected areas.

B. Sme f them fail t achieve their gal.
C. Their prblems went unnticed at all.
D. They have a negative effect n wildlife.
9. What des the underlined wrd “this” in Paragraph 3 refer t?
A. Ding smething psitive. B. Organizing the meeting.
C. Talking abut bidiversity. D. Expanding prtected areas.
10. What des Julia Jnes call n wrld leaders t d?
A. Face the cnsequences f human behaviurs.
B. Try t set targets fr the next ten years.
C. Have a deep understanding f bidiversity.
D. Fcus n the effectiveness f prtected areas.
11. What des Thmas Brks think f the study?

Heat waves are becming mre cmmn in parts f the United States —and that means mre peple running their air cnditiners fr lnger. But thse air cnditiners can make the prblem wrse, giving ff greenhuse gases as they wrk that cntribute heavily t climate change.
SkyCl Systems is trying t break that cycle, using technlgy that prmises t ffer buildings an alternative means t cl twn in a similar way t hw the planet cls itself. “Our planet naturally cls itself by sending heat ut in the frm f infrared light (红外线) r radiatin,” said Eli Gldstein, SkyCl’s cfunder and CEO. “We d this thrugh rftp panels which lk like slar panels b ư actually d the ppsite, reflecting 97% f the sunlight that hits them and cling the surface belw,” said Gldstein.
SkyCl’s mdel invlves fixing a netwrk f pipes belw thse panels. These pipes are filled with water, which is kept cl by the panels and then flws int an air cnditining system. This prcess is designed t take pressure ff the system’s cling mechanism. And because the panels cl naturally and dn’t need external pwer t functin, it helps the entire system use less electricity.
A Grcery Outlet stre in Califrnia, which has been using SkyCl’s system since last year, says it saw a marked drp in its electrical bills lesus Valenzuelz the stre manager, estimates that the panels have saved his stre rughly $3,000 a mnth.
But perhaps the biggest barrier t making the technlgy ubiquitus (无处不在的) is its relatively high cst. Increasing prductin culd help bring the cst dwn, Gldstein said, particularly fr develping cuntries in Asia and Africa where SkyCl hpes t eventually expand. Fr nw the cmpany is fcused n cmmercial applicatins f the technlgy, thugh it hpes t start setting up panels n the rfs f individual hmes. “We’re just excited t be able t use this new technlgy fr gd,” Gldstein said.
12. Hw did Gldstein explain the way their rftp panels wrk?
A. By citing an expert’s wrds. B. By making cmparisns.
C. By analyzing cause and effect. D. By describing the prcess in detail,
13. What is the functin f the pipes in SkyCl’s mdel?
A. T stre cld water t help cl the panels.
B. T help ease the water pressure f the air cnditining.
C T pwer the panels by making use f flwing water.
D. T feed cld water int the air cnditining system.
14. Hw might Jesus Valenzuela view SkyCl’s system?
A. It’s pretty effective. B. It has increased sales fr his stre.
C. It will g ut f style quickly. D. It will cst t much t set up.
15. What des SkyCl expect f its system?
A. It’ll bring in a gd prfit fr the cmpany.
B. It’ll gain ppularity in develped cuntries.
C. It’ll take the place f air cnditiners.
D It’ll be accessible t cmmn husehlds.
