     To help educate her kids，Esther takes them out on nature walks to the forest，where they pick up rubbish as they go. "They use their little gloves and enjoy this activity，because they know it's better for the environment ， "she said.They also take books out of the library on climate change and plastic that they read all together.
     Esther hopes that by sharing her lifestyle，she'll help to convince other people to join in the zero-waste movement.She's keen to reassure（使安心）people that the lifestyle really isn't as difficult or expensive as they might imagine.

     In 2019，a special team of musicians，computer scientists，and historians was formed Their goal was to try to complete Beethoven's 10th Symphony to celebrate his 250th birthday.The team didn't just want to complete the symphony，but they wanted to come as close as possible to producing the symphony that Beethoven meant to write.That's where deep learning came in.
     To train an AI to help with the symphony，the team turned every piece of music that Beethoven ever wrote into form the computer could understand.By feeding the program all of Beethoven's music，the AI could look for patterns in the way Beethoven wrote.Other members of the team studied Beethoven's notes and sketches，and worked to figure out what Beethoven was planning to do.
     One early test told the team they were on the right track.They took a few minutes of music created by the AI based on Beethoven's sketches，and played it for Beethoven experts，musicians，and reporters.No one could tell which parts had been written by Beethoven and which parts the AI made up.Finally，the AI had the challenge of trying to connect the little musical bits into a symphony.
     It took over two years，but the team was able to complete Beethoven's 10th Symphony.It is not simply a melody，but 40 minutes of music for a full orchestra---a large group of musicians playing everything from string instruments，like violins^ to trumpets，drums，and pianos.Last Saturday night，the piece was performed for the first time ever by the Beethoven Orchestra in Bonn，Germany.
