[00:08.21]Creating A Low-carbon Society
[00:11.32]In recent years,
[00:14.00]low-carbon lifestyle is vigorously advocated around the world.
[00:19.04]Each and every action conducive to the reduction of carbon dioxide
[00:24.82]is bound to catch people's attention.
[00:27.62]Why does such phenomenon occur?
[00:30.61]For one thing, frequent disastrous global climate changes,
[00:35.46]which have threatened human health,
[00:38.04]security and survival,
[00:40.28]aroused people's attention.
[00:42.45]We have realized that our infinite desire
[00:46.62]and excessive consumption of high-carbon products
[00:50.91]are immensely increasing carbon dioxide emissions,
[00:54.83]thus worsening global climate.
[00:58.01]For another, low-carbon lifestyle encouraging people
[01:02.30]to lower consumption of resources and energy helps
[01:06.03]to realize sustainable development in our society.
[01:11.13]As college students,
[01:12.87]we can exert our efforts to reduce carbon emissions
[01:17.66]by doing some simple things.
[01:19.78]For example, never use disposable chopsticks or cups;
[01:25.20]turn off the lights when we are leaving the classroom or dormitory;
[01:29.87]make full use of every piece of paper and so on.
[01:33.85]If everyone keeps a low-carbon lifestyle,
[01:37.34]we can make a big difference,
[01:39.39]as every little makes a mickle.
