四、 Go green at school
Hi, guys,
Isn't it pleasant to study in an environmentally friendly school? To develop a
green lifestyle, we students can go green at school in smaller ways.
On the one hand, we should save resources. First, we should save paper. We can
reuse the textbooks and use both sides of the paper. Second, we should save water.
We can take short showers and reuse water. Third, we are supposed to save electricity.
For example, turn off the lights when we leave the classroom. Also, we needn't turn
on all the lights unless necessary. On the other hand, we should reduce pollution. We
can take care of the trees and flowers, choose the public transport and use the cloth
bags instead of plastic bags. We should develop a green lifestyle. We can do more
exercise and watch less TV. If we take good care of our earth today, it will be more
beautiful tomorrow.
That's all. Thank you!
