“We all have suffered from the air pollution. If we don’t call for an end to the firecrackers (鞭炮), the environment will get worse and worse in the future.” said Zhang Wei. He put up a notice in his neighborhood. In the notice, he called on more people to set off (引爆) fewer firecrackers during this year’s Spring Festival.
Lots of parents agreed with Zhang Wei. They said that they hated the noise of firecrackers. It often woke up their babies easily. And the babies really needed a quiet place to have enough sleep.
More Chinese are looking forward to celebrating the holiday in greener ways. Many people decide not to set off firecrackers. They decided not to waste food. They think that the new ways are fashionable (时尚的).
“My family didn’t buy firecrackers this year. Instead, we gave the money away to a charity. It’s good for the environment and the charity.” the Internet user “Fighter” wrote on the Blog.
In my opinion, it’s very important for us to celebrate our traditional festival—the Spring Festival. But it’s more important to reduce air pollution and protect our environment. We had better express our cheerful feeling and best wishes in greener ways. We need more people like Zhang Wei or “Fighter” who uses electronic ways like QQ, Wechat or Blog. I believe more and more people will join them and our environment will get better and better.
