Nowadays a new lifestyle called low carbon life（低碳生活）is spreading every corner of our country．The meanings of low carbon are low energy and no waste．It is such an important project that I can’t wait to express my ideas about it more clearly．

In the first place, we should have a no-car day every week in our school．Because cars not only cause serious air pollution but also waste energy．On no-car day, neither students nor teachers are allowed to drive to school．Meanwhile, just walk, jump, cycle or run．Use our legs and enjoy the fun．

In the second place, we had better not use plastic bags any more．No one can bear the “white pollution”．So, it is wise to use bags which can be reused again and again．

Finally, one thing that we should keep in mind：every big thing comes from the subtle．Therefore, as students, we ought to turn off the lights the moment we leave, turn off the water tap in time, and reuse our textbooks and so on．

In one word, it is necessary for all of us to put the low carbon lifestyle into our daily life．Just remember these：no-car day, no plastic bags, and no waste．Let’s do it now．
