Environmental protection composition: In the evening, as soon as my mother came home from work, she smiled mysteriously at me and said, "I received a new email today." I said disapprovingly, "What's so strange?" Mother said, "I think you will be very happy to see it." I was even more curious, pulling my mother to open the email, and when I saw it, wow, I actually received the honorary certificate of WWF! It reads: "Thank you for your commitment to participate in WWF Earth Hour 20 10, and to join the global 10 billion people, turn off the lights for one hour and start a low-carbon life journey. You are an important force in promoting WWF's "Earth Hour 20 10" activity to become the largest environmental protection action in the world, and also a pioneer in slowing global warming and creating a low-carbon life. Chief Representative of Dermot Ogmann World Wide Fund for Nature (Switzerland) Beijing Representative Office. "

I jumped up and down with joy, and I couldn't help thinking of March 27th. ...

That afternoon, I couldn't wait to rush into the house and say to my parents who were preparing dinner, "Eat dinner quickly, and we will turn off the lights for an hour tonight!" " "

Mother said inexplicably, "When?" Dad went on to say, "Turn off the lights? Why turn off the lights? " Well, it seems that I have to make up lessons for them again.

"Mom and Dad, please listen carefully: Today is March 27th, a little time on the fourth earth. Earth Hour is an initiative put forward by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF). It hopes that individuals, communities, enterprises and governments around the world will turn off their lights for one hour at 20:30-2 1:30 on the last Saturday of March every year to express their appreciation for the earth's resources through energy-saving actions.

Dad said, "Can we not attend?" "No-all right!" I flatly refused his request. Mom is laughing, and dad can't help laughing. At 20: 30-2 1: 30 this evening, our house really turned off the lights for an hour. Although it is only a short 60 minutes, I think it is very meaningful. Because I know that as long as 100 million families participate in this activity, 550,000 tons of carbon dioxide can be saved for the earth. What an amazing number this is! As long as we lift a finger, we can effectively stop global warming. Shouldn't we take active action?

Since then, under my constant indoctrination and reminder, my parents have made more and more progress: try to walk or ride a bike when going out; Resolutely do not use disposable tableware; Flush the toilet with bath water; Energy-saving light bulbs are used at home; Unplug unnecessary appliances when going out ... even my mother will say to outsiders: "If you use 100 kWh, then you will emit 78.5 kilograms of carbon dioxide, so you need to plant 1 tree to make up for it; If you drive 100 liter of gasoline, then you will emit 270 kilograms of carbon dioxide, so you need to plant 3 trees to offset it ... "

I have another wish. I must plant more trees on Arbor Day next year to make Yangzhou, a city that won the UN Habitat Award, greener. Let's act together to protect the earth!
