    　　You may have known several kinds of police, traffic police, and street police．But have you ever heard of energy－saving(节能) policemen?

    　　A group of 22 of these new policemen went to work last week in Beijing．They go around the city to see the use of energy in hotels, office buildings, shopping centers and onther public places．One of their aims is to make sure that these sites have set their air conditioning(空调) no cooler than 26℃．

    　　They also set up a special phone line so that people can tell them which buildings fail to follow the rule．

    　　“If everyone sets their air conditioning at 26℃, Beijing will save 400 million kilowatt－hours of electricity in one summer．That’s one－third of all the usage of the city in the season, ” said a TV advertisement．

    　　Other Chinese cities, like Wuhan in Hubei Province and Yangzhou in Jiangsu Province, are going to follow Beijing’s steps in setting up a similar police team．

    　　From 1986 to 2005, the country experienced 20 warm winters continuously．Numbers show that Chinese cities have to spend billion of yuan solving(解决) environmental problems every year．

    　　At the beginning of this month, China made its first action plan to fight pollution．It aims to reduce energy usage by 20％ and increase renewable energy up to 10％ from 7％ by 2010．

    　　To introduce the public to a green life, last week Beijing held a show on energy－saving technology and productions．Environment－friendly machines, such as a vending machine that helps colllect used bottles, have attracted lots of attention．

    　　“We want to tell people that there are certain ways to protect the environment．Each of us can find effective ways to do it in our daily lives, ” said Liu Qianguang, an environmental engineer in Beijing．

    　　Taking away a city's rubbish is a big job．Every day trucks come into a city to collect it．Most rubbish is made up of things we can't eat or use．If we kept these things we would soon have a mountain of rubbish．

    　　In some cities the rubbish is collected and taken outside of city to a dump．Often the city dump is placed where the ground is low or there is a big hole．The kitchen rubbish is broken into small pieces and sent into the sewage system．The sewage system takes away the used water from toilets, bathtubs and other places．

    　　To keep mice and flies away, some earth is used to cover the newly dumped rubbish．Later, grass may be planted on the rubbish-filled land．Finally, a house or a school may be built there, and then you'd never know that this had once been an old rubbish dump．

    　　In other cities the rubbish is burnt in special places．The fire burns everything but the metal．Sometimes the metal can be used again in factories where things are made of metal．The food parts of rubbish are put in special piles where they slowly change into something called hurnus, which looks like black earth．It is rich with the kinds of things that feed plants and help them grow．
