窗户都是大玻璃,光线很好,所以很晚了都不用开灯。
机场公用卫生间里擦手的不是一次性纸巾,而是能重复使用的擦手布,一大卷,扯不断,会定时取下清洗。
手纸,厨房用纸比美国贵一倍,用时需要考虑再三。
垃圾分类非常细致。
几乎每一家后院都有一个黑色大桶。你把有机的垃圾,比如苹果皮,剩米饭倒进去,肥料会在里面自动产生,从大桶下方取出即可。和我爹妈那时在后院的土里埋剩鱼骨头异曲同工,不过看上去高科技多了。
大家都在后院牵绳子晒衣服。想当年在美国我在后院晒衣服,竟然觉得不好意思。
当然,很重要的一点,大部分人平时坐公汽,走路或骑自行车上班上学。这点和美国的中小城市截然不同,和今天的中国大小城市都很不一样了。
喜欢英国的节能,除了提着一大桶牛奶,几大罐果汁从超市走15分钟回家的时候。唯一的安慰是,仿佛能感觉到腰间的游泳圈在这节能运动中慢慢缩小。
所以,提倡节能。

Very good to know that you all landed in the exciting country sound and well. Will keep reading your blog very frequently. Have to sign up for a google account in order to comment:(. But guess I can also start a blog, now the fashion...
I will let Qun know of this and see what she will do in five years.
One thing in common, at least, is that I could not quite figure out why Qun complain that she does not have shoes to wear, when actually she has at least 15 pairs of sandals alone...
