Vietnam’s New Year is celebrated according to the Lunar calendar. It is especially known as
Tet Nguyen Dan, or Tet. It begins between January twenty-first and February nineteen. The
exact date changes from year to year. Vietnamese people usually make preparations for the
holiday several weeks beforehand. They tidy their houses, cook special food, clean and
make offerings on the family altars. On the New Year’s Eve, people sit up to midnight to see
New Year in, then they put on new clothes and give one another the greetings of the season.
Tet lasts ten days. The first three days are the most important. Vietnamese people believe
that how people act during those days will influence the whole year. As a result, they make
every effort to avoid arguments and smile as much as possible.

A different type of footprint
Mai: Nam, I read yesterday that we all have a carbon footprint.
Nam: Well, we all have footprints – we make them with our feet!
Mai: Ha ha, I know that. But this kind of footprint is about the negative effect we have on
the environment.
Nam: Right, it’s in the news a lot these days.
Mai: So our footprint is bigger when we use energy that produces carbon dioxide. That’s
bad for the environment.
Nam: So it’s better to have a smaller footprint, right?
Mai: Right, Nam. Non-renewable energy sources like coal, natural gas, and oil produce a
lot of carbon dioxide. Those sources are going to run out soon too.
Nam: So they’re different to wind, hydro, and solar?
Mai: Yes, they’re all sources of energy too, but they’re renewable. That means we can’t use
them all up – they will last forever.
Nam: Do you have a big carbon footprint, Mai?
Mai: Mine’s small. I recycle the products I use and I go everywhere by bike. We have solar
panels on our roof at home to catch the sun’s energy, too.
