10、Atlas the Great Wall with its battlement symbol. From that moment, I had in my mind that when I grew up Id go to China and walk along the Great Wall from end to end.Lindesays about 3 ,000-km solo run along the Great Wall began in 1987. Running the length of the wall was a brave expedition, venturing

11、 into sparsely populated regions where there was little chance of help if the runner had an accident. During another trip, Lindesay and his team ventured deep into the Gobi Desert of Mongolia. The explorers almost died from dehydration(脱水） . In total, Lindesay estimates in an interview that he has s

12、pent about 1,600 days of his life, or four full years, on the Great Wall in all seasons.Lindesay and his wife, Wu Qi, whom he got to know and fell in love with during his trips in China, had a farmhouse at the foot of the wall.

Its got to be much quicker, he said. Lindesay always carries a garbage bag with him in the wilderness, pick

14、ing litter along the way. Lindesay uses a garbage bag as his calling card. The cloth bag bears a set of nine simple guidelines in Chinese, which calls on people to observe while traveling or camping outdoors : Take your own garbage home Pick up? litter left by othersDont damage plants or flowers, or

18、ir new findings in Environmental Science & Technology Letters.

In countries with very dirty air, meeting this standard would lengthen peoples lives. However, in countries whose air already meets t

22、his standard, the study shows no gain in life expectancy. In other words, meeting the WHO standard wont reduce health costs resulting from dirty air because even below 10 micrograms per cubic meter, pollution still causes serious risks.
