A new report predicts that by 2050, half of the world's population (around 4.8 billion people) will be short-sighted. The medical name for this is myopia (近视). It is also called nearsightedness.

When we have myopia, we can't see the things far away from us. It is true that more and more people have myopia. It's a bad situation. Today, almost 90 percent of young Chinese people are near-sighted. Some experts make a prediction. In their opinion, there will be seven times more people with myopia in 2050 than there were in the year 2000.

The researchers say that the number of people with myopia will increase because of different reasons. Looking at computer screens and mobile phones may be the major reason. The increase may have something to do with lifestyle changes. Now, people spend less time outdoors. A science journalist says that spending more time outdoors in early childhood can reduce the chances of getting myopia. A researcher once said, "You can spend time on computers and screens, but remember to spend two hours outdoors every day. That is good for your eyesight."

Give your dead batteries a new life. Recycle them!

Batteries (电池) are used to power clocks, computers, tools and more. However, your batteries have some serious power when their lives are over.

Why to recycle batteries:

Remember, batteries are harmful waste. This means we should properly throw them away. You may not think one little battery can cause that muchpollution. But don't think of it as just one battery—there can be millions. In Canada, each person uses about 20 single-use batteries every year. That's about 700 million batteries! If all these batteries end up in landfills (垃圾填埋场), the heavy metals inside them can get into the water, land and air. It can be harmful to humans and wildlife.

By recycling single-use batteries instead of throwing them away, you can cut down pollution and also help save energy. All batteries are mainly made of plastic and valuable metals. Through recycling programs, dead batteries can be changed into something useful like steel products, or even new batteries!

How to recycle batteries:

Make a difference by starting to collect batteries at your home or school today.

You can prepare a box for battery collection and invite friends, family and classmates to bring in old batteries to be recycled.

There are many safe ways to deal with your batteries. You can:

●Find a Call to Recycle public collection station near you.

●Ask the store where you bought the batteries if you can return them there.

● Communicate with your local city government to find out if there are special programs for recycling used batteries!
