After lunch, my daughter requested me to drive her to Barage. After a ten-minute drive，we parked the car and got out. We walked along a path that was thick with old pine needles.

In fact, it is reported that the average Londoner drinks 2.3 cups of coffee every day. And now, waste coffee grounds (渣滓) will be used to help fuel part of the citys transportation system.A technology company announced on Monday that some buses will be using a biofuel that contains coffee oil. The company, called Bio-bean and its partner, Argent Energy, say they have made enough coffee oil to power one of Londons famous double-decker buses (双层巴士) for a year. The announcement made Bio-bean a trending story on social media.The government agency Transport for London has been turning to biofuels to cut production of carbon emissions. A carbon emission is a gas produced by the burning of carbon. The gas is released into the atmosphere. Londons mayor, Sadiq Khan, said last month his city has a “health crisis caused directly by poor-quality air.” The government has taken steps to discourage people from driving cars that do not meet European Union emissions requirements.Bio-bean said Londoners produce over 200,000 tons of coffee ground waste a year. The company said it collects waste grounds from chain coffee shops and factories. The grounds are dried and processed to remove the coffee oil.“Its a great example of what can be done when we start to re-imagine waste as an untapped (未利用的) resource,” said Bio-bean founders Arthur Kay.
