As a developed country, Australia uses a lot of energy every year. It produces a lot of greenhouse gases(温室气体). Australia has taken many methods to cut its greenhouse gas emissions(排放).However, they did not work well. It's reported that its greenhouse gas emissions are still rising.

In Chart I, we can see how energy is used in Australian families.

A good way is to save electricity, like turning off electrical machines when they are not needed and using electrical machines that produce less greenhouse gases. We can also use clean energy, for example, energy from the wind and the sun. Besides, it is helpful to travel by bus and bicycle instead of driving cars. If every one of us starts to act now, our environment can become greener.
