Matt Reck,37,is the kind of eco-conscious(有生态意识的) person who feeds his trees with bathwater and reuses water drops from his air conditioners to water plants.His family also uses a clothesline.But on July 9,2007,the HOA in Wake Forest,North Carolina,told him that a dissatisfied neighlzir had telephoned them about him clothesline.The Recks paid no attention to the warming and still dried their clothes on a line in the yard.“Many people say they are environmentally friendly but they don’t take matters in their own hands,” says Reck.The local HOA has decided not to take any action,unless more neighbors come to them.
North Carolina lawmakers are saying that banning clotheslines is not the right thing to do.But HOAs and housing businesses believe that clothesline drying reminds people of poor neighborhoods.They worry that if buyers think their future neighbors can’t even afford dryers,housing prices will fall.
Environmentalists say such worries are not necessary,and in view of global warming,that idea needs to change.As they say,“The clothesline is beautiful”.Hanging clothes outside should be encouraged.We all have to do at least something to slow down the process of global warming.”

马特.罗克,37岁,是一个有着生态意识的人.他用洗澡水来浇树并用回收利用空调水来浇植物.他家里还用晾衣绳.但是在2007年七月九号,位于北加利福尼亚Wake Forest的HOA组织警告他说有一个对他的晾衣绳深感不满的邻居打电话举报了他.罗克一家人对这个警告置之不理并且仍然在院子里用晾衣绳晒衣."很多人嘴上说他们是有生态意识的人,但是他们还是自行其事."罗克说.当地的HOA组织决定不采取任何行动除非更多的邻居来举报他.北加利福尼亚的立法者宣布禁止用晾衣绳是不合理的.但是HOA成员们及房地产业人员们认为晾衣绳让他们的邻居觉得穷酸.他们担心那些买家如果认为他们将来的邻居竟然连洗衣机都买不起,那么房价将要下跌.
环保人士们认为这些担心是没必要的,而且从温室效应的角度来看这些观点应该改变.正如他们所说"晾衣绳是美丽的" 把衣服晾在外面是可取,应该受到鼓励.我们都应该至少做一些事来减缓温室效应的进程.
