16、in Britain enjoy walking in the Peak District every year. But what many who enjoy outdoor hobbies dont know is that their “right to walk” was won by men who sacrificed their own freedom to gain access to the countryside for all.In 1932 wealthy landowners had exclusive use of large areas of moorlands
17、 for grouse shooting.Walkers were kept out by guards, until a group of 400 people from Manchester and Yorkshire, led by Benny Rothman, engaged on a mass trespass. The campaigner was jailed with four other men.The event is credited by many with starting a movement that paved the way for the establish
18、ment of national parks. Mr Rothman died in 2002 but he is now being honoured for his contribution with the unveiling of a blue plaque on his former home in Crofton Avenue, Timperley, Greater Manchester. Retired professor, Harry, who followed in his fathers footsteps by specialising in environmental
19、issues, says: He was a very optimistic man and he made the best of it when he went to prison. It didnt put him off campaigning, he went on campaigning on environmental issues most of his life. Mr Rothman did live to see the Countryside Rights of Way Act passed by Parliament in 2000, ensuring the fre
20、edom of the countryside for future generations. Roly Smith, a friend of Mr Rothman and an author of walking guidebooks, said: It is down to them that we have got what we have today.Councillor Jonathan Coupe, of Trafford Council, said: The honour of having a blue plaque attributed to you means you ha
21、ve really made an impression on society.

24、s life to environment protectionBI no longer run for the mail the way I used to. I remember, prior to the e-mail age, the sense of heightened anticipation as the hour of mail delivery approached, wondering what slender, handwritten treasures would appear in my box. I once received a letter from a lo
25、ng-lost friend and swelled with such joy that I ran the mail carrier down and shook his hand, as if he had done a heroic deed in conveying the missive to me.I first learned to love the mail as a young boy. The first thing I ever received that was personally addressed to me was from my buddy Duane. W
26、e had been the fastest of 9-year-old friends. Then he moved away, to Massachusetts. The parting was difficult, but boys didnt cry.Within the week, however, there was a letter in my mailbox. It was from Duane, and it read, “Im OK, but I miss you.” That first conveyance to me of a written word from a
27、great distance had all the import of the first Morse code message: “What hath God wrought.” It was at that moment that I became a letter writer, quickly discovering that the more letters I wrote, the more I received.I wrote letters through elementary school, high school, college, and beyond. It got
28、to the point where I could comfortably expect to receive a letter a day. The daily mail delivery was, for me, like a beacon at sea something toward which my thoughts began to move upon waking. What quickened my blood, of course, was the element of surprise: From whom would the letter be today? And w
29、hat would the news be?And then, seemingly in the blink of an eye, the earth shifted. E-mail had arrived. Despite being intrigued by the new technology, I promised myself that I would never stop writing letters by hand. However, I had no control over the proclivities of others, and slowly, inexorably
30、, and then with quickened pace, the letters disappeared from my mailbox, having been replaced with electronic “messages” ,a totally different beast in contrast to letters, all e-mails look alike.55.

34、n indispensable aid in everyday life. More and more people go online as wireless networks have brought the Internet closer and closer: its on our mobile phones, in our cars and TV sets, in hospital surgery rooms and in fishing boats that battle the waves of the Atlantic.And this revolution has broug
35、ht along with it a new way of shopping. Both big and small, e-commerce websites have literally flooded the Internet by the hundreds of thousands. Anything you can buy from a brick and mortar store you can also buy online: from food and clothes to guns and ammo, no matter what youre looking for, your
36、e bound to find the right online store with just a few clicks of the mouse.This revolution has sent cold shivers down the spines of brick and mortar business owners. And what was their reaction? Theyve opened online stores to go hand in hand with their conventional businesses. Nowadays, every Mom an
37、d Pops cheesecake store also has a website. In a recent survey, 68% of small business owners have stated that they are scared of being put out of business by the raging torrent that e-commerce has become. So its no wonder many of them have decided to join the revolution and establish some kind of an
38、 online presence even though most of them have stated that they have an aversion towards the Internet.But do the big players have reasons to be afraid? Are we going to start seeing ghostly, deserted Walmarts across the country? Probably not in the near future but the day will come when most people w
39、ill just stop shopping offline anymore. A trip to Walmart wastes time, burns gas and sometimes adds a few extra dots on the stress counter. The recent advancements in mobile technology and the introduction of mobile phones with enhanced web capabilities has even made some people order their grocerie
40、s when they get out from work and have them delivered at their doorstep by the time they get home. And as Time is money, this practice is lifesaving for people who work two jobs.Technology will continue to advance and e-commerce will follow closely in its footsteps.

44、 doesnt look like the heart of a green revolution. The huge chimneys stick up above the line of pine trees and dont make for the most scenic view as you wander around the clear blue waters of the nearby lake.But it is this power plant that has helped the small Swedish city of Vaxjo become arguably t
45、he greenest place in Europe. On closer observation, the only think emerging from the chimneys(炉子). Thats because it is not oil fuelling the plant, but woodchip and other wood waste from the areas sawmills. And as well as generating electricity, it also supplies 90 per cent of this southern Swedish t
46、own with heating and hot water.The gases produced as the wood burns are changed into liquid form, and are purified before they reach the chimney. And instead of wasting this liquid, the power plant pumps it around town. Some runs out of the towns public taps; the rest is directed through pipes that
47、run through individual heaters, warming homes and offices.The pile of wood chipping in the yard towers above head height and takes almost five minutes to walk around. Thats enough to keep Vaxjo warm on the snowiest day in winter, or supply it with hot water for a fortnight in summer, and its good way of using the paper industrys waste. As well as the centuries old Swedi
