Hot air ballooning can be fun and It is an interesting way to spend a few hours on a weekend. A typical ride last between one and two hours. Plan on another one to two hours for preparation before the flight and pick up time after touch down. Most ballooning is done in the early morning or a dusk. There is less wind during these times. Also balloons have better lift in cooler temperatures. Wear comfortable clothing and flat soled shoes. What one would wear for a walk is appropriate. A sweater or light jacket may be needed in fall and spring. It is colder at higher altitudes. For every 1000 feet in altitude the temperature is 3.5 degrees cooler than ground temperature. Typical altitudes for a balloon ride is about 3000 feet. A balloon goes where the wind takes it. A pilot can control the direction of the flight by flying at different altitudes. At different altitudes the wind blows in different directions. A chase crew communicates with the pilot during the flight so they can pick up the passengers and return them to the launching site. Radios are used for this. Don’t worry about becoming air sick, like in an airplane. There is no turbulence. The flight is smooth. One last thing– don’t forget a camera. You can get great panoramic shots.

Read the text and make your own notes about in very brief lines. Manufacturers are currently competing with each other to produce a form of green packaging. Packaging is a vital part of marketing, but much of it is a threat to the environment. There are two reasons for this. The production of such packaging uses up a great deal of energy and the cartons are often difficult to dispose of when they become waste material. People in many countries have become aware of the dangers that modern living is doing to the environment. Luckily, a lot of countries are worried about the conservation of the environment for future generations. Thus, both politicians and scientists are now looking at the issues of energy-saving and waste disposal with a view to making them more environmentally-friendly. As far as packaging is concerned, it is vital that it is either recyclable or biodegradable. For example, instead of throwing out newspapers and glass bottles with their household rubbish, people in several countries are being encouraged to put these in special containers to allow the material to be recycled. Some household waste, such as vegetable peelings, is naturally biodegradable and so decomposes gradually until it disappears. Man-made goods are not so easily disposed of. Goods and packaging made of plastic create waste material that is difficult to get rid of. This means that huge landfill sites have to be dug out so as to bury the plastic waste underground, possibly causing problems for future generations. Just as much of a problem is industrial waste, since the effluent from factories often contains chemicals that can lead to the pollution of water supplies. Waste from factories has to be monitored carefully in order to avoid this. Technological advances using nuclear power have added to the waste problem. The disposal of nuclear waste causes particular concern because it is radioactive and so possibly dangerous to life. The high standard of living, which the people of many countries now enjoy, has resulted in a huge increase in waste material. This could have a terrible effect on the ecology of the planet. There is no doubt that action must be taken to save our environment from possible disaster. thank you for the help
