四级写作训练9：Live a Low Carbon Life

Live a Low Carbon Life [00:12.56]As is depicted in the symbolic picture, [00:16.00]the Earth is suffering from high concentrations of carbon dioxide [00:21.02]in the atmosphere and is in urgent need of help. [00:25.71]To help ease this situation, [00:28.03]there has come the appeal for people to live a low carbon life [00:32.91]in recent years. [00:34.73]What can we college students do to live a low carbon life? [00:40.75]Personally, [00:42.53]I think there are several things we can do. [00:46.02]To start with, [00:47.65]college students can choose walking or public transportation [00:51.78]to help reduce carbon dioxide emission. [00:56.13]Secondly, [00:57.15]reducing the use of tissues or replacing them with handkerchiefs [01:02.37]is another thing college students can choose to do. [01:06.62]The huge consumption of tissues means lots of trees being cut down, [01:12.10]which reduces the absorption of carbon dioxide. [01:16.38]To sum up, [01:17.73]college students can live a low carbon life [01:21.20]by taking environment-friendly actions. [01:24.51]Such actions accumulated can help ensure a green future.
