Save every drop of water in life, and strive to reduce water pollution

With the rapid economic growth and increasing population, it has become a very urgent task to try to alleviate the contradiction of insufficient resources, continuously improve the ecological environment, and realize sustainable development. China is one of the world's 12 water-poor countries, freshwater resources are less than 1/4 of the world's per capita water, so water conservation is urgent.　

According to statistics, according to a city ****17 million resident population, there are more than 6 million families to speak, if each family saves 1 degree of electricity per month, a year the city can save electricity 60 million degrees, equivalent to a small power plant's power generation; if each family saves 1 ton of water per month, a year the city will be able to save 60 million tons of water, the equivalent of a city of 800,000 people a year of life in the total amount of water.

Saving every piece of paper

Using recycled paper and saving paper protects forest resources.　

Currently, the raw material for papermaking is mainly wood. The global annual reduction of forest area of 73,000 square kilometers, equivalent to two Taiwan Island. China's paper industry annual consumption of more than 10 million cubic meters of wood; annual production of about 45 billion pairs of disposable wooden chopsticks, equivalent to our year to eat about 25 million trees. By using and consuming large quantities of paper, we are actually depleting forest resources. Nowadays, an average of 4,000 square kilometers of forests on Earth disappear every year. Forests can provide human beings with oxygen, absorb carbon dioxide, prevent climate change, conserve water, prevent wind and sand, and maintain ecological balance. Protecting forests and reducing the amount of exploitation requires cutting the demand for wood. Recycling 1 ton of waste paper can produce 800 kg of recycled paper, which can cut down 17 big trees, save more than half of the raw materials for paper making, and reduce water pollution by 35%. Each piece of waste paper can be recycled at least twice. Therefore, should promote active recycling of waste paper, try to use recycled paper and double-sided paper to give full play to the advantages of e-government, vigorously implement the paperless office, try to use the electronic media to modify the manuscript, and strive to reduce paper consumption. Saving paper is the best measure to protect the forest and the environment.

Every family should save every grain of food

To develop good habits of thrift and frugality.　

"Who knows what is on the plate, every grain is hard". Families should cook within their means, the meal is not in more than one, but to be nutritionally balanced, overeating or eating too much, will affect the health of the human body, but also to eliminate the luxury of waste, parents should be a good example to the children, from childhood to cultivate the children's good habits of diligence and thrift.
