Create a Conservation-oriented Campus

Nowadays it is of great importance to create a conservation-oriented campus. The effort would significantly contribute to China’ s overall efforts to become a leading low-carbon nation in the world.

The most important reason for such an endeavor is to change a deep-entrenched misconception prevalent among college students. Most universities provide water and electricity for free, misleading students into believing that such resources are limitless and inexhaustible. We should realize that, currently, many parts of our country are suffering from water and power shortage crisis. We should show concern for the people in those places by refusing to be selfish in satisfying our own needs.

To be a well-educated college student is to be conservation-conscious. College graduates are the future of our country and if their awareness of conservation were enhanced they would definitely play a leading role in protecting our environment in the future.
