Examples of note-taking
Example 1 Canada and the United States have a very similar culture because they share a similar history. Both countries were settled by people from Europe who came to North America looking for a new life. Canadians and Americans both developed an individual-oriented culture because this was needed to survive in a huge, new land.

Example 3
The most common plastic used in water bottle manufacturing is PET, an environmentally unfriendly substance that actually requires 17.5 kilograms of water to produce only 1 kilogram of PET. In fact, more water is used to make PET bottles than is actually put into them. The production of the plastic also produces numerous byproducts that are extremely harmful to the environment. The Container Recycling Institute reported that 14 billion water bottles were sold in the US in 2002, yet only 10% of these bottles were recycled –90% ended up in the trash.
