Read the following and answer questions 1-5 Dear Sir,

I am writing to express my concern about the obsession some people have for thing which say "imported" on the
label.
Why do people have to buy imported things? Does it make them feel important? Do they like wasting money? Have
they thought about the carbon footprint left about imported things? Let's take fish, for example, some people pay a
fortune to eat fish that comes all the way from northern Europe. The fish has to be frozen packet in expensive plastic
bags and boxes and then flown out to Africa. Airplanes cause a lot of pollution, and so does packaging. And yet
here in Maputo we have we have some of the best fresh fish in the world, of course I know we don't produce
everything we need in Mozambique, so some things need to be imported. But must we import things that we don't
need?
I feel proud when I buy something that is made in Mozambique, because I know that I am supporting local industries
and farmers. When I buy local food, I know that I am getting healthier, fresher too and it's cheaper! So why waste
money and pollute the environment? I say, buy local, buy made in Mozambique.
