The Green Movement
Some countries are better than others at looking after the environment. In Europe, Germany and the northern European countries work very hard to improve the environment. People in countries such as Germany put their garbage into different bags—paper in one bag, plastic in another bag, etc. The garbage is then taken away and, if possible, recycled. CFCs (chlorofluro-carbons), chemicals which are found in refrigerators and aerosol cans, are not allowed. There are laws that do not allow people to burn too much coal.
In the 1970s, as people learnt more about environmental problems, the "Green" movement began and soon spread all over Europe. The "Green" movement tries to get governments to think seriously about the environment and how to look after it. It collects information about how industry is damaging the environment and gives this information to newspapers.
