    你是否想过采取行动节约粮食?
    The chart shows the result of an investigation on the question whether you
have ever thought to take actions to save food. As can be seen from the data, 27
percent people have never had any idea about this issue, while near 50 percent
people only have awareness, but never have they taken any actions. Sadly, those
having awareness of saving food and also taking measures to do this only
accounts for 25%.
    This phenomenon can easily be found anywhere in our daily life, not only in
food issue, but also in electricity and energy. Many people are used to doing
everything with the television on, not actually watching it at all. Such a habit
can cause waste of much electricity and energy, and result in the emission of
carbon. This deviates from the popular concept of "low carbon life"-to reduce
the emission of carbon, especially carbon dioxide, to protect our environment
and realize sustainable development. According to statistics, if we can decrease
the time for having the television on by one hour each day, we can deduce the
amount of carbon emission by 4.71 kilogram each month.
    To serve as responsible stewards of the planet, we must promote and
popularize a low carbon life among the public from every detail in our daily
life. We must change the past practice of sacrificing long-term environmental
health for short-term rapid economic development, and shift to developing green
economy, circular economy and low carbon economy. All these effective measures
can help us to reach harmony between development of the society and health of
the nature.
