Scientists have looked at both human comfort and the cost-benefit analysis of using fans and air conditioning（AC）and discovered ways to stay cool and still? ? ?61? ? （significant）reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

According to the International Energy Agency， air conditioning and electric fans account for a? ? ?62? ? （five）of global electricity consumption. Scientists found that by combining fans and AC， its possible? ? ?63? ? （keep）human comfort indoors while reducing reliance on AC. If it was used in Australia， the yearly emissions and cost could? ? ?64? ? （cut）by 70 percent.

The model they created to compare energy use and emissions employed five? ? ?65? ? （programme）. One used just air conditioning， and? ? ?66? ? ?other four had fans at different speeds and the use of AC only when the temperature? ? ?67? ? ?（get）too high. By modeling temperature data for the whole Australia， they found the one with the fastest fan? ? ?68? ? ?（produce）airspeed flows of 1.2 meters per second had a reduction of 76 percent in energy usage.

Co-author Professor Ollie Jay said，“By increasing air movement with fans， you can feel the same at a higher temperature? ? ?69? ? you will do at a lower temperature using AC. This is ? ?70? ? ?most people can do to reduce the emissions in Australia.”

Despite the availability of COVID-19 vaccines， so many people died in the second year of the pandemic in the U.S. that the nations life expectancy（平均期望壽命） ? ?61? ? （drop）for a second year in a row last year， according to a new analysis.

The analysis found U.S. life expectancy fell by under a half a year in 2021， ? ?62? ? （add）to a dramatic decrease in life expectancy that occurred in 2020.“The finding that we had a horrible loss of life in 2021 that? ? ? 63? ? （actual）drove the life expectancy even lower? ? ? 64? ? （be）very disturbing，”says Dr.Steven Woolf， a professor of population health at Virginia Commonwealth University.

The deaths that occurred in 2021 were a product not only of a lack of vaccination，? ? ?68? ? was a huge factor， but also being in places that didnt observe ? ?69? ? （policy）like masking and social distancing. Woolf says，“We spend a fortune? ? ?70? ? ?medical care and were a high-income country. We should be able to do far better.”

Humans depend? ? ?67? ? ?（strong）on insects. Without them， we would have no flowering plants， ? ?68? ? ?would harm the food web that supports important animals. Birds， for example， depend on plants for food and spread their seeds while? ? ?69? ? ? ?（keep）the populations of harmful insects down.

In addition to providing food and habitat for birds and insects， native plants are able? ? ?70? ? （survive）easily and dont require much care.
