Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment.The UK,for example,is running out of it for carrying this unnecessary waste.If such packaging is burnt,it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect.Recycling helps,but the process itself uses energy.The solution is not to produce such items in the first place.Food waste is a serious problem,too.Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need.However,a few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue,encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags,for example.

　　But this is not just about supermarkets.It is about all of us.We have learned to associate packaging with quality.We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality.This is especially true of food.But it also applies to a wide range of consumer products,which often have far more packaging than necessary.

　　There are signs of hope.As more of us recycle,we are beginning to realise just how much unnecessary material we are collecting.We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture,but we have a mountain to climb.

　　1.What does the underlined phrase “over-consumption” refer to?

　　A.Using too much packaging.

　　B.Recycling too many wastes.

　　C.Making more products than necessary.

　　D.Having more material than is needed.
