Recently, there has been an activity of “Doing Your Bit for an Energy-saved society” in our school. Our schoolmates were highly concerned about the increasing lack for energy and provide advice. Many a student suggest that we shouldn’t waste any food or paper, though they appear very easily to get. Some other students think that advisable to refuse to use plastic bags.
