expressions in this unit.
Hello.
Let me tell you about Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark.
Copenhagen offers a remarkable illustration of sustainable
environmental efforts.
It’s one of the most bicycle-friendly cities in the world with over 400 km of bike lanes, and 62% of its residents
traveling to and from work by bicycle.
About 40% of the electricity the city uses comes from wind.
Moreover, buildings are made to be
energy-efficient by installing solar panels.
It’s important to realize that such efforts improve people’s overall quality of life.
I hope our city will implement these policies, too.
