Week 12 When arts have something to do with green


Sometimes we have to admit that arts require a lot of energy and material, which is a kind of waste. Arts is only something for people to have fun, it doesn’t worth so much effort, isn’t it? By using the same resources, we can get more interest if investing them in other areas such as capital market. We should appreciate that artists have realized they have consumed a lot of matters. Now, even director and actress have the sense. They try to save as much energy as they can by redesigning theatre. Here, the famous actress Cate Blanchett and her husband haves set a good model. The uniqueness is one of the reasons why this article success. The subject can raise readers’ attention.
But the author doesn’t mention the “who” until the second paragraph. The following paragraphs offer more details about how the scheme works- they use water and photovoltaic to generate electricity. The author also interviewed the pair. The structure is classic pyramid.
Another good value is its importance. Same as the purpose of the director and actress, propaganda the energy saving plan, more and more artists will participate in it. This is the importance of the article which makes it valuable.
The weakness of the article is the picture which is a picture of Cate Blanchett. If the author can provide a photo of the model, the article will be more attractive. But overall, it is a piece of good news.
