Earth Day is coming soon, so Bright Bats Club focused on “environment protection” last month. We had an extra class with teacher Ryan, discussing about what we can do for our Mother Earth. I learned a lot in the activities, including some facts and awesome ideas we can do to help the environment.
We also had Mr. Titan, the manager of Starbucks. He told us how Starbucks goes green. I was impressed in their diligence. Then he told us how to reuse what we call “trash”, coffee dregs. Those ordinary oddments can be very useful! I really admire their unique ideas. They’re simple but really useful in our life, and they can help our planet! At the end of the lecture, Mr. Titan said something encouraging, “Don’t think your power is too tiny and useless. In fact, one simple action can change the world!” I agree with him, and I’ll never forget it.
Now we saw what people are doing, what businesses are doing. What about the government? We went on a field trip to Zhou-Zai Wetland to observe the ecological environment in the busy city. There, I saw a paradise for birds, insects, and plants, surrounded by buildings! The volunteer explained about the history and the environment here, and I learned a lot. Strolling along the trails, it’s really hard to believe we’re right in the middle of the metropolis!
After the entire project of “environment protection”, I found out what everyone is doing to help the earth. What they have been doing touches me deeply. I decided to do more to help our planet before it’s too late. Earth is our only home!
Mr. Titan is right. What we’re doing is simple, but we are changing the world!
