Accomplishments
By the time she was twelve, Vanessa-Mae had played with orchestras
all over the world as a soloist. She had also released three classical
recordings. Soon, however, Vanessa-Mae wanted to try playing other
kinds of music as well.
Although she loved classical music, Vanessa-Mae wanted to experiment
with other kinds of music. At 14, she began to combine the traditional
sound of her acoustic violin with the sounds made from her new electric
violin. She called this music "techno-acoustic fusion." Vanessa-Mae loved
the music that the two types of violins made together. Her first album
with techno-acoustic fusion music was called The Violin Player. It was
instantly successful and sold in over 20 countries. It was even a hit on the
best-selling music charts.
No longer just a classical musician, Vanessa-Mae was asked to perform
at international rock concerts. At a concert in Switzerland, the audience of
50,000 people gave her a 20-minute ovation. The crowd did not want her
to stop playing.
Vanessa-Mae has sometimes been criticized for not just playing
classical music. However, she feels it is important to introduce violin
music to a new audience, and that her style of music has been helpful in
reaching that goal. “If, as a result [of my music], people see the violin as
a fresh, up-to-dates instrument, that's fine with me."

Importance of Recycling

Recycling is collecting waste and processing it for production of new things. We all know that we should collect and sort all items that can be recycled: paper, plastic, glass, batteries, electric appliances, metal and steel goods. Why should we do it?

Recycling saves energy because the process of making products from recycled materials needs less energy than making them from new materials. If people spend less energy on production, they reduce greenhouse gas emission. This way recycling helps to prevent global climate change and reduce pollution. Recycling also saves natural resources. For example, when we recycle paper, we save trees and water. In many countries schoolchildren collect waste paper helping to save forests.

Recycling is a way to save our planet for future generations.

Litter Recycling.Переработка мусора

We all know that today our environment is endangered but not everyone knows how to deal with this situation. Because of our careless actions there are many kinds of pollution happening around. One of the most urgent problems of today’s society is littering, which causes water, soil and air pollution. Unfortunately, there are still many people who don’t know how to cope with this problem.

Not all the wastes are biodegradable, some of them need to be recycled. Nowadays we have plenty of factories where they recycle rubbish such as plastic, cloth, glass and so on. All we need to do is to separate glass, paper and plastic. By this we already do a great job and help our planet a lot. I know that there are some ecological organizations that arrange rubbish collection, they even make competitions in that. They are also here to teach people how to deal with wastes and make them aware how harmful it is for the environment.

Every day people around the world use millions of plastic bags and bottles and then throw them away which is very harmful for soil. Instead of that we can use the same bags when we go shopping and not buy new ones, or refill bottles with water. People buy things they don’t need instead of giving a new life to the old ones. For example instead of buying shorts you can just cut your jeans, or you can use your old T-shirt for mopping the floor. You can give your clothes to second hand shops or buy clothes there yourself. We have so many unnecessary things at home, which then go to the rubbish bin. Instead of that everything can be given for charity or to your friends who will probably need these things.

“Reduce, reuse, recycle” is a good rule for every person.
