Low carbon life

Good morning! It’s my great honor to be here. Today my topic is low carbon life. Ladies and Gentlemen, have you noticed this phenomenon: when we turn on TV, there are a lot of advertisements about low carbon life. So low carbon life has become more and more popular especially after the Copenhagen meeting(哥本哈根峰会), focusing on low carbon, which is called the last chance to save the earth.

Then what is low carbon life? Does it reduce carbon emission? In my opinion, low carbon life is equal to the environmental protection, a green movement for the environment and a new lifestyle, which is spreading every corner of the world.

Next is my reason for the low carbon life. Why it is urgent, necessary and important for us to live a low carbon life? Because we all know that there is more and more air pollution，water pollution，chemical pollution and so on, which resulted in a worse and worse living environment. But we have only one earth that provides the living conditions for our human beings. Therefore, we should protect our earth and take good care of the environment. So living a low carbon life is a good choice. Then comes how to live a low-carbon life?

First is from our thoughts. We should recognize that low-carbon

life is not only a kind of lifestyle but also an attitude to life and one kind of life manner. So long as everyone wants, this goal can be achieved. For everyone of us has an obligation to protect the environment, therefore we need to try our best to construct a better and more harmonious conditions between human beings and nature.

Second is from our action. We should develop a good habit of low-carbon life in our daily lives. For example, we can choose to go to work by bike or on foot instead of by cars; before we leave our home or office, we must make sure that all the lights and computers are switched off; we also should turn off the tap after we wash our hands. Besides, while shopping, we no longer use shopping bags but carry

environmentally friendly bags that can be used again and again. What is the most important is that we should try our best to call on the people around us to take part in the low-carbon life, because what we are doing is very meaningful, which not only can reduce carbon emissions, make our own contributions to our society, but also do good to ourselves, including keeping us healthy, setting good examples for our children or future generations, and so on.

Action speaks louder than wods. we should put the low carbon lifestyle into practice. Just remember: no-car day, no plastic bags, and no waste. Lower carbon, happier life. Low carbon life starts

from me, from you and from everyone. So let’s take action. That’s all, thank you!
