为地球熄灯一小时,晚上8:30~9:30,正好趁此时间,出去再转一圈,距离住的地方不远的小公园重新装修了,现在的它非常敞亮,而人很少,也许是因为时间太晚的缘故!
这也是第1次遇见重新装修的小公园,借此记录一下。
地球一小时介绍:
Today millions of people in over 180 countries will turn their lights out to raise environmental awareness. The campaign started in 2007 is called Earth Hour. Now while the campaign is popular in China, it has raised some skepticism. What possible impact can turning your lights off for one out of 8760 hours a year possibly have?
We've been discussing these issues since the beginning. But in the past 14 years, precisely in the benign良性的(环境), helpful discussion, Earth Hour地球一小时 has a bigger impact in China. Now more and more people And companies are participating in it. We think that discussions like this are actually a beneficial way to raise public and social awareness of environmental protection社会环保意识. The earth hour campaign Is currently the largest public environmental protection activity in the world, rather than a special governance action for energy saving. It calls on everyone to turn off unnecessary lightning on the last Saturday in March from 8:30 PM to 9:30 PM 3月最后一个周六晚上8:30~9:30关闭不必要的照明. With such a symbol but iconic标志性的 action, awaken everyone's will and determination to protect the environment and deal with climate change.
So we can all agree that climate change is a problem that needs to be addressed and as citizens of earth, we bear that responsibility. Turn out your lights, bring reusable可重复使用的 shopping bags to the store, cycle everywhere. But will these individual efforts really save us from the catastrophic effects of climate change that were currently hurdling跨栏 forwards? It feels a little overwhelming压垮.
Steve Cohen of the Columbia climate school wrote, "without collective systems and infrastructure supporting environmental sustainability, there are distinct limits to what individual action can achieve. " So responsibility doesn't rest dolely仅仅 on an individual, but what kind of collective systems and infrastructure are we talking about ? China, for example, has set an ambitious goal to have C02 emissions peak达峰 by 2030, and achieve carbon neutrality by 2060. But literally(用于夸张的强调)简直 how can a country that relies so heavily on the coal industry, for example, possibly meet that goal?
