Day 11

Will Traditional TV Ever Be Replaced by Streaming?

For a long time, people had to listen to the radio to get news, drama, and music at home. This

all changed with the development of the television in the early 20th century.___1___Since then,

British TV viewers have enjoyed the launch of commercial TV, the addition of Channel 4, and

then Channel 5, and finally the birth of paid services through satellite and cable.

A Slow Decline

While the uptake of TV ownership exploded, the decline of television's dominance has been

slow and has been going on for the past decade. ___2__ Streaming services have given us access

to more content than was ever possible, including back catalogues of classic shows and

blockbuster movies.

services than ever before. In 2018, these figures were 30 minutes and 26 minutes per day

respectively. ___3___

Still the King

___4___For example, in 2018 UK adults continued to watch BBC One for an average of 41

minutes per day, more than any streaming service.

much larger quantities of original content being produced by these organisations. ___5___

After the Singles Day, nearly 490 million packages were delivered every day. As more people

prefer online shopping, the amount of waste generated has become a matter of concern. ___1___

Environmental stress caused by packaging and rolls of tape for express delivery goods is

severe. It’s necessary to deliver the goods with package instructions. ____4____ When lacking

enough packaging instructions, the packaging cannot be recycled or reused and the tape is simply

abandoned.

Establish a regulatory system

Policies and regulations should be introduced to ensure that packaging will be recycled and

reused. Meanwhile a recycling system needs to be established where the e-commerce platforms,

delivery companies and consumers can engage in the green packaging campaign.____5____In
