Ex8. Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer.
Task 1:
Black Friday and Cyber Monday promote mindless consumption, excessive packaging and
shipping waste, especially with the rise of online shopping. The sales produce massive waste not just
from the unwanted single-use plastic and cardboard packaging, but also from the return of unwanted
items. This mindset also ensures that the earth overshoot day keeps moving back.
This is especially true of the clothing industry, where much of the online returns are tossed
into the landfill because the logistics and cost of putting the item back on the shelf
are much too complicated. Britons throw away approximately 300,000 tonnes of clothes every year
and many of them are only worn a handful of times.The negative impact of Black Friday is also significant from non-recyclable, mostly plastic
toys, to e-waste, to fast fashion that is only used for one season. In fact, in France, the government is
considering banning Black Friday due to the impact on the planet and the promotion of unsustainable
consumption habits.
