2013年，“雾霾”成为年度关键词。在北京，仅有5天不是雾霾天。而如此严重的雾霾天气，与人类自身的行为有着密不可分的联系。可吸入颗粒物——加重雾霾天气污染的罪魁祸首——可以来自于各式各样的污染源。例如：汽车尾气、工业生产废气、建筑工地与道路交通中的扬尘等等。我们的所作所为将会在不久的未来得到报应，一切来自人类的罪恶。

此时我们所能做的，不是坐以待毙，而是从我做起、为首都的蓝天献出自己的一份力。我们首先要做的就是唤醒人们的环保意识。事实上环保的途径有多种，例如利用电视媒体或海报等形式激发人们对于环境的认识。即使是像我们这样的学生，举行宣传“保护蓝天”行动的公共活动也是一种良方。一人之力固然渺茫，但再小的行动乘以14亿也是壮举；纵使微小之事不会改变什么，但只要持之以恒，也会成为伟业。所以保护蓝天也可以取决于日常的小事。购买商品时，应拒绝高能耗、高污染、高资源消耗的商品；出行时，尽可能少开车，并尽量选择地铁、公交等公共交通方式；假日时，拒绝露天烧烤，并减少烟花爆竹的燃放量。不仅如此，我们能为保护环境做出太多太多，例如节电节水。垃圾分类也是环保的良方。古语说：“千里之行，始于足下。”节能减排的重任不是短跑，而是需要群策群力的马拉松。减少污染不是一句空空如也的口号，而是需要市民身体力行的行动。

所以我在此呼吁：让首都的蓝天重现！

我不想鱼儿在污泥中停止呼吸。我们记忆中的乡土气息早已被尾气取代，我们留给未来的也许只是地球沉重的叹息。留给子孙一个完整的梦好吗？从今以后，若每人都能从我做起，我相信我们的子孙也能够呼吸新鲜的空气，汲取纯净的天地之气。

请保护这片我们赖以生存的土地！请争取蔚蓝星球的永恒清新！

Please strive for the eternal fresh air of this azure planet

Zhang Yinong from ChangPing No.1 Senior High School

Hello,everyone. I’m Zhang Yinong from ChangPing No.1 Senior High School. Today my topic is Please strive for the eternal fresh air of this azure planet

Clean air is more important than anything else. A man can still live without eating for 35 days,or without drinking for 5 days.But once the air is cut off, we’ll die in 5 minutes.Even so,the air which is necessary to every living creature is gradually becoming the polluted “Poisoned air”.

“Smog”has become the keyword of the year of 2013.In Beijing,there were only 5 days without Smog. But the severe smoggy weather has much to do with our own behavior. Inhalable particles—the main cause of increasing the smog day－can come from all kinds of sources of pollution, automobile exhaust emissions, industrial waste, dust from construction sites and roads, and so on.As a result, the cost must be paid for what we had done,for all the sins from humans.

All that we can do right now is not just sit here and wait,but start with ourselves and make our own contribution to the blue sky of our capital. First of all，what we need to do is to arouse the people’s awareness of protecting our environment.Actually there are many ways to do this ,such as by TV media or posters to enhance people’s attention on environment. Holding public activities to propaganda the idea of “sky-saving”is also a good way,even for students like us. Though one man’s strength is vail,but even the tiniest action times 1.4 billion can make a big difference;Though a small thing wouldn’t be much, a small thing will become great work as long as you have faith in it and keep holding on. So protecting our sky can depend on our every-day behaviour. When purchasing an item,we are supposed to resist the high energy consumption, high pollution, resources-wasting products consciously ; When traveling,drive private cars less as possible as we can,and choose public means of transportation,such as subway and bus;When holiday,refuse barbecue outside,and reduce the amount of firecrackers.Also,in order to reduce our exhaust we can do so much, such as saving electricity and water.Waste sorting is also a good way to protect our planet. As an old saying goes:A journey of a thousand miles begins with one single step.The task of energy-saving and emission-reduction is not a sprint,but a marathon which needs everybody’s effort. Reducing pollution is not just an empty slogan,but an action which needs people’s devotion.

So,here I appeal:Let the blue sky of the capital reappear.

I don’t want the fish to suffocate in mud.The familiar flavor in our memory has been replaced by the car exhaust,maybe what we left for the future is nothing but a heavy sigh of the Earth.Can’t we save a complete dream for our children? From now on, if everyone take immediate measures to do his bit for our fresh air. I am convinced that our future generations shall be able to breathe fresh air and feel the pureness of the world.

Please protect the air we live with!Please strive for the eternal fresh air of this azure planet.
