We all know we shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, but when we see a new face, we form an immediate
opinion of the person. According to recent Princeton University research our brains decide whether a person is
attractive or trustworthy within a tenth of a second.

Alex Todorov (Princeton University psychologist) has found that people respond to faces so rapidly that our
minds may not have time to influence the reaction – and that our intuitions about attraction and trust are
among those we form the fastest. He thinks that the link between facial features and character may not be all
that reliable. However, that does not stop our minds from deciding very quickly whether a person possesses
such important traits as likeability and competence, even though we have not exchanged a single word with
them.

Princeton academics had conducted studies with their students that suggest there is a direct correlation
between how competent a campaigning politician’s face is and how successful he or she is in the final election.
Participants in the trials made their judgments about politicians based on a one-second look at their faces.
After several other experiments which the researchers conducted, they learnt that, if given more time, people’s
initial judgment about faces did not change. According to Todorov, observers simply became more confident
in their judgments if they had more time to look at the person.

We know generally what makes a face attractive, such as its symmetry, the proportions of its component parts
and the like. But what is it about a face that makes you think its owner is an essentially competent person?
What are the aspects of the face that inspire such judgments? Unfortunately, it hasn’t been discovered yet.
That’s the subject of another study, one that needs to be done.

A.  How can everyone help make a difference?
B.  What is the environmental cost?
C.  What are our present habits like?
D.  How can authorities help?
E.  Does “bottled” always mean safe?
F.  Why is water healthy?
G.  What does it take to make a bottle?

5.1. ____
The research shows that Americans buy more bottled water than any other nation in the world. They can’t live
without it in the workplace, they never forget it when they go jogging,

and they even sip it at home in front of

the TV. Is your family like those in the United States? Do your weekly groceries always include a case or two of
bottled mineral water? Do you always have a bottle in your bag?

5.2. ____
In order to produce all these bottles, manufactures use 17 million barrels of crude oil. That’s enough oil to keep
a million cars going for twelve months. Imagine a water bottle filled a quarter of the way up with oil. That’s
about how much oil was needed to produce the bottle.

5.3. ___
We love the convenience of bottled water but many of us are not aware of the extent of the problems it causes.
For every six water bottles we use, only one makes it to the recycling bin. The rest are sent to landfills. Or, even
worse, they end up as trash on the ground, in rivers, lakes or the ocean. Plastic bottles take hundreds of years to
disintegrate and can be very harmful for the environment.

5.4. ___
The advertisements on TV and campaigns promoting drinking of mineral water make people believe that
bottled water is healthier than water out of the tap, but that’s not always true. In many countries, for instance
the United States and Italy, local governments make sure water from the tap is safe and are trying to encourage
citizens to use it.

5.5. ___
There is also growing concern that chemicals in the plastic bottles themselves may contaminate the water. If
people were aware of this, they might try drinking from a glass at home or buying water in glass bottles which
are heavier but more environmentally friendly than plastic, because they can be reused.

5.6. ___
Summing up, water is good for us, so we should keep drinking it. But this does not mean it has to be bottled
water. If you want to carry a plastic bottle to school or work because it’s light and convenient, just refill it from
the tap every day. Remember that recycling one plastic bottle can save enough energy to power a 60-watt light
bulb for six hours. If we realised that, maybe we would be willing to change our habits.

NEW ORLEANS GOING GREEN

New Orleans has every reason to feel proud. The city’s spirit has never broken or weakened despite a number
of disasters– two in the last decade alone. One of them hurricane Katrina hit the city at the end of August
2005 after most residents had been evacuated. As the hurricane passed through the Gulf Coast region, the
city’s federal flood protection system failed, resulting in the worst civil engineering disaster in American history
and 80% of the city flooded. Hurricane Katrina saw the first forced evacuation in the city’s history, the second
of which came 3 years later with Hurricane Gustav. But the city has survived.

The stories of these survivals have been told many times. They are stories made possible by the people who
choose to remain in the city no matter what happens; the people who are the city. But it is time for a new
story, or at least a new chapter. The people of New Orleans now have the chance to create an economy that is
new and innovative; one that is open to any American who wants to participate in it. New Orleans now has the
chance to lead in the creation of a green economy, one that uses renewable energy as fuel and offers green job
opportunities.

It’s part of a trend that is taking place all along the Gulf Coast. Operation Reach, which is a national non-profit
community education resource, runs the Gulf South Youth Biodiesel Project, a youth project, which enables
participants to learn how to turn raw organic materials into eco-friendly alternative fuels. Another initiative
is Total Community Action’s programme, which offers advice on how to increase energy efficiency in the
home, significantly reducing energy bills over the long term as a result. A number of other organisations and
individuals are running urban farms, harnessing the power of the sun or building water management systems –
thousands of people in total, working on creating a cleaner New Orleans.

Last weekend, a national ecological organisation Green For All and a number of local partners organized a
conference involving some of the region’s most innovative thinkers to share their experience. They discussed
local green initiatives, and workshops provided information about resources for getting involved and getting
New Orleans to work – in a new way. Green economy innovators, community leaders, and local artists shared
their vision for new trends and changes in the city. The day culminated in a concert featuring Dead Prez,
Charmaine Neville and the Hot 8 Brass Band.

However, all these events and jobs opportunities did not happen by accident. They are only possible because
of the city’s residents. The people of New Orleans are passionate about making the world better, more exciting
and more fun. The city does not want to be known for its disasters; it wants to be known for its ability to create
new ideas and make these ideas work successfully. However, without an informed, engaged community and
an empowered mass movement, big changes are not possible in New Orleans, or the state capital or even
Washington, D.C. The people of New Orleans are trying a way which has never been tried before. And because
of that spirit, change is coming to America, change as a result of finding new ways of creating power and
protecting our planet.
