A Voluntary Activity

①Last Sunday, our class launched a voluntary activity, the theme of which is to make the city more beautiful and advocate a low­carbon lifestyle.In the morning, we went to plant trees in the suburbs.We worked in cooperation. Some dug holes, some carried and planted trees, and the others watered them. In the afternoon, we went to the People’s Square to hand out leaflets, raising people’s awareness of environmental protection. Most of the students think highly of the activity, which will surely have a positive effect on our daily life.

As far as I’m concerned, it’s everyone’s duty to protect the environment. ②As long as there is the possibility of saving our planet, do take action now before it is too late. Low carbon living is surely a way of great significance.
