Hello everybody:

My name is Angel; I am from class 1, grade 5. Today I’m going to talk about low carbon lifestyle. What is low carbon life?

Low carbon life is to reduce carbon in the air. We know that when we burn something to make electricity, we make the air dirty and increase the carbon dioxide; when we drive cars, the carbon dioxide is also increased.

Because of the high-consumption and high-pollution economy, the population increases quickly and the global climate changes repeatedly. The resources that people rely on to survive become less and less. Those are having a bad effect on our health, making us unhealthy. Therefore, low carbon life is important to us.

As a student, we should develop good habits in our daily lives. We can select products with longer shift life when we shop. This can reduce waste and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Paper cups are made from cutting forests. We should try not to use them, or select the smaller ones when we do because trees can absorb carbon dioxide and reduce greenhouse gas. We should use efficient light bulbs and the lights should be turned off when not needed.We should not waste food, so that the machines do not need to produce more. In this way, energy and electricity can be saved.

In the future, we will study harder to find new and better ways to have a low carbon lifestyle, so everybody will live a wonderful low carbon life.

Thank you everybody!
