use a lot of resources and contribute to global warming. As a result, more and more couples are now looking
for ways to make their traditional weddings kinder to the environment.
Before their weddings, these couples mail invitations that are printed on recycled paper. Or, they avoid using
paper altogether by e-mailing invitations instead. Couples also register at stores that sell environmentally-friendly
gifts, such as bed sheets made of bamboo and towels made of organic cotton. Then, these couples know that they
will receive “green” gifts from their wedding guests.
Many couples choose to hold their weddings outdoors in parks or on farms rather than in churches or other
buildings. This can greatly reduce the amount of electricity needed for the weddings. The couples also look for
locations that are as close as possible to their guests. Why? Because the farther their guests have to drive, the more
pollution they will produce.
During the reception, “green” couples serve organic foods, which are better for the environment because no
chemicals are used to grow them. They also purchase food that is grown locally, not thousands of miles away. This
reduces the pollution that results from transporting the food for long distances. Finally, they serve their food and
drinks using cups, plates and utensils made of recycled materials. 【題組】5. How do green couples plan their reception?
