Eradajere Oleita, a student and environmentalist from Detroit, is asking for help from local snack lovers.
Rather than throw your empty chip bags into the dustbin, give them away so she can turn them into sleeping bags for the homeless. It is called the Chip Bag Project.
Oleita and her volunteer helpers collect the empty bags which chip eaters drop off. After they sanitize(消毒) the chip bags in hot water, they cut them open, lay them flat, and iron(熨) them together. They use some cloth from old coats to line the insides.
It takes about four hours to make a sleeping bag and each takes around 150 to 300 chip bags, depending on whether they’re single-serve or family size.
“The result is a sleeping bag that is waterproof(防水的), lightweight, and easy to carry around,” Oleita told the Detroit News.
Since its start in 2020, the Chip Bag Project has collected more than 800,000 chip bags and created 110 sleeping bags. Sure, it would be simpler to raise the money to buy new sleeping bags. But that’s only half the goal for Oleita—whose family moved to the United States from Nigeria ten years ago with the hope of achieving a better life—and her volunteers. “We are devoted to making an effect not only socially, but environmentally,” she says.

埃拉达杰雷·奥莱塔，一位来自底特律的学生兼环保主义者，正在向当地的零食爱好者寻求帮助。
不要把你的空薯片袋扔进垃圾桶，而是把它们捐赠出去，这样她就可以把它们变成无家可归者的睡袋。这就是“薯片袋计划”。
奥莱塔和她的志愿者助手们收集吃薯片的人留下的空袋子。他们用热水对薯片袋进行消毒后，把它们剪开、铺平，然后熨在一起。他们用一些旧外套的布料来衬里。
制作一个睡袋大约需要四个小时，每个睡袋大约需要150到300个薯片袋，这取决于它们是单人份的还是家庭装的。
“结果是一个防水、轻便且便于携带的睡袋，”奥莱塔告诉《底特律新闻》。
自2020年启动以来，“薯片袋计划”已经收集了超过80万个薯片袋，并制作了110个睡袋。当然，筹集资金购买新睡袋会更简单。但这只是奥莱塔——她的家人十年前从尼日利亚搬到美国，希望过上更好的生活——和她的志愿者们目标的一半。“我们致力于不仅在社会上，而且在环境方面产生影响，”她说。
4. 根据文章，奥莱塔是一个______。
A. 善良的人
B. 当地的零食爱好者
C. 无家可归的孩子
D. 吃薯片的人
5. 新考法 哪张图片可能展示了“衬里”？
6. 从最后一段我们可以知道奥莱塔______。
A. 已经实现了她团队的目标
B. 每月想要110个睡袋
C. 设法保护环境
D. 和她的家人搬到尼日利亚
7. 新考法 如果你想支持“薯片袋计划”，你能做什么？
A. 为无家可归者购买新睡袋。
B. 把用过的薯片袋捐赠给奥莱塔。
C. 卖掉旧外套来筹集资金。
D. 自愿为这个项目熨烫布料。
