(2023·长沙高二检测)T.O.Fuller State Park in Memphis,Tennessee,has been loved for generations and has always been a ground where community has come first.Back in 1938,it was the first park east of the Mississippi river to open for African American visitors.Over 80 years later,the park is continuing its forwardthinking tradition,this time,through a pioneering sustainability project.
A new walking and biking trail has been built through this historic park.Illegally dumped(被丢弃的) tires are not only unpleasant to see,but they're a dangerous addition to the environment.Rubber,like plastic,is a material that won't naturally decompose.In a place as hot as Tennessee,these dumped tires often begin to melt and release these harmful gasses into the air.Fortunately,the old tires were sent to Patriot Tire Recycling in Bristol,TN,the only facility in the area that can break down tires in an environmentally sound way.There,the collected tires were safely broken down into the crumble (碎屑) rubber that was eventually used to pave the new trail.
TN State Parks explained how the trail's construction,which has been in development since 2019,was a joint effort.Officials from the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation,the Tennessee Department of Transportation,the City of Memphis,Shelby County,and Memphis City Beautiful were all involved in funding this recycling project.
These officials named their initiative the “Tires to Trails” project.Workers from these departments,alongside some 450 volunteers,came together to collect over 24,000 tires that had been illegally dumped in the area around the park to be recycled.
“This is a perfect example of recycling in full circle,collecting dumped material,then converting it into positive use,” David,a leader of the project,said in a statement.

A.It is a popular park with a good tradition.

2.Why are dumped tires a dangerous addition to the environment?
