(๑╹ω╹๑ ) If you ask about the definition of “the good life”, there are a thousand different ones in a thousand people’s eyes. Some may say “a life with endless money to spend”, others may want many children with them. But to me, a “good life” means a simple one, a life with delicious food, a nice sleep, and people you love. Being satisfied with the life you are living, that’s enough for happiness and a good life for me. No matter you wish or not, living in a big city full of heavy smog and pollution problems — like Beijing, China — drives your attention to the climate problem. The more I learn about the issue, the more interested I am in climate change and the more I want to contribute my part in environmental protection. Even though there’s still a relatively serious climate problem in Beijing, but we are paying our effort. Limiting cars on roads, shutting down factories, developing electric cars… We believe that one day, “APEC blue” can be seen in Beijing every single day ("APEC blue" is a phrase we use here to represent the unusual, clear, blue sky). Hope that people can all act to help "decarbonize and decolonize" in order to preserve our cute yet vulnerable mother planet, for ourselves and also the future generations.
