00:00Before watching the video, I would like to remind you that there is more content on the Hotpoint website.
00:04As we all know, the global pollution problem is getting more and more serious.
00:08According to the UN data, the average production of 4.3 billion tons of plastic waste per year is equivalent to 2,000 trucks of plastic waste being dumped into the ocean every day.
00:19This is a serious threat to the health of the earth's ecosystem and humans.
00:23The latest report released by the World Meteorological Organization and the UN Office for Reducing Disaster Risk also shows
00:29that the speed of ocean heat, sea level rise, and the melting of Antarctic glaciers has broken the annual record.
00:35The heat waves, floods, droughts, fires, and rapidly increasing tropical cyclones also put millions of people in trouble.
00:42Economic losses are also up to billions of dollars.
00:45The extreme weather caused by natural disasters is inextricably linked to global warming.
00:51The recent floods and hurricanes in our country have proven that our country is no longer the paradise that was not affected by natural disasters.
01:02In order to improve the awareness of environmental protection,
01:07Rufo Xinshan, an environmental organization, actively walks into the community in various ways to convey the importance of carbon reduction and environmental protection to the people.
01:16He also organizes activities to allow people to exchange fresh vegetables with recyclable items.
01:21Let's take a look at the video.
01:26There are tomatoes, cucumbers, and green vegetables in a row in the stand.
01:30The MDs hold the plates and carefully select the vegetables to weigh.
01:35Then put them in bags.
01:37This is not a vegetable market, but a green carnival organized by an environmental organization
01:42that allows people to exchange fresh vegetables with recyclable items.
01:46You can see that the people are very active in participating.
01:48They bring large and small bags of recyclable items,
01:50including old newspapers, plastic bottles, cans, old clothes, etc.
01:53to exchange various fresh vegetables.
01:56Today, our exchange method is to exchange 10 cents for 1 kilogram.
02:00They will get a compressed soil and seeds.
02:04They will plant themselves.
02:06Secondly, if they bring 3 kilograms of food,
02:10they can exchange it for 300 grams of vegetables.
02:12Then 5 kilograms is 500 grams of vegetables.
02:15They choose by themselves.
02:16After choosing, we will weigh it and give it to them.
02:19In this process, we don't give them bags,
02:22so they usually put it in their own bags and bring it back.
02:25In addition to recycling vegetables,
02:27there are also events such as the hands-on workshop,
02:30electric car test drive, VR natural disaster experience, etc.
02:33The organizer hopes to attract more people
02:36to pay attention to green environmental protection
02:38and global climate change by various interesting ways.
02:41Many parents bring their children to participate,
02:43not only to support environmental protection activities,
02:45but also to educate the next generation on the importance of environmental protection
02:50so that the children can take an active environmental protection class.
02:53It's not just a good incentive for us.
02:57In fact, for us to educate our next generation,
02:59to give them a good example,
03:01to give them a good value,
03:03is also what I want to do as a father.
03:07It just so happens that the children are still young,
03:09so I bring them to participate in environmental awareness.
03:12It's a very good education.
03:14When I see their backgrounds,
03:16I say there are some handicrafts or animals,
03:20so I bring the children to play.
03:22There is also a group of plastic artworks made by children
03:25that successfully caught everyone's eye.
03:28The back of the goldfish has a plastic bottle,
03:30which is combined with a plastic bag.
03:33It is to warn people that plastic waste is harmful to marine life.
03:37This goldfish was made by our children.
03:39So when we were in school,
03:41we told the children about the concept of environmental protection.
03:44We hope that they can classify things,
03:46garbage and food.
03:48Otherwise, it will flow into the ocean
03:50and cause some harm to marine life.
03:54Extreme climate change is something
03:56that we are about to face head-on.
03:59Although environmental protection can't cure natural disasters,
04:04we can't control it.
04:06But at least we humans need to wake up.
04:08Everyone is busy making money
04:10and paying attention to the current wealth.
04:13But when it comes to natural disasters,
04:16our so-called luxury cars,
04:18money and lives are very small.
04:22We can have nothing
04:24when a flood or a tsunami comes.
04:26So while we are concerned about a better life now,
04:30we should not sacrifice the future.
04:32This is very important.
04:33This is also a concept of sustainable life.
04:36Environmental pollution is no longer an insurmountable threat,
04:39but a reality that urgently needs to be addressed.
04:42Plastic waste not only destroys the natural ecosystem,
04:45but also harms marine life.
04:46In the end, it will affect our daily lives.
04:49Refusing to use disposable plastic products,
04:52turning off the lights,
04:53and reducing carbon emissions,
04:55everyone's every little action
04:57can make a huge contribution to protecting the earth.
