"Son, why didn't you turn off the light after going to the toilet? Come and turn it off! " Mother questioned her son.

"I forgot. Please turn it off for me. I'm doing my homework?" The son responded.

what's the matter? Wang Xiaojun, my son, is a little puzzled. During this period, my parents are stingy, buying less food than before, and basically not eating out. Parents should bring environmental protection bags when buying vegetables, classify garbage, save water and electricity, and set an example by themselves.

Wang Xiaojun is the son of my neighbor. His father is a civil servant and his mother is a people's teacher. Wang Xiaojun often comes to visit me, feeling that his parents are kind to him and want something inevitable. This time, he vomited to me his parents: "My parents are too stingy and become more and more stingy, and gave me an example."

I found a suitable opportunity to ask why. It turns out that they all joined the Municipal Environmental Volunteers Association, and they publicized the significance of environmental protection activities to their sons. For example, "Turn off the lights for one hour on the earth" was an initiative launched by the World Wide Fund for Nature in 27, which inspired people's sense of responsibility for protecting the earth and thinking about environmental issues such as climate change, and supported the global fight against climate warming with practical actions.

Wang Xiaojun is in the sixth grade of primary school this year. During this period, he obviously felt the changes in his parents' words and deeds. In the past, his father used to hold banquets on big and small issues, and he liked extravagance and waste. His mother spent money without blinking an eye. She wore new clothes and cosmetics, and X Bao was not soft in sweeping goods. She was a veritable pickpocket, eating out every once in a while and singing in KT∨ private rooms. Growing up in this sweet environment, Wang Xiaojun unconsciously developed a bad habit of spending money lavishly, often playing games, buying snacks and drinking milk tea.

Since his parents became environmental protection volunteers, their daily life has undergone tremendous changes. They always follow the guidance of the concept of "I will participate in energy conservation and environmental protection, and I will be healthy through low-carbon exercise", starting from things around me and starting from small things.

From then on, every summer, the air conditioner is basically turned off, and the electric fan is used instead. Even in the hottest days, the air conditioner should be turned on to 25 degrees Celsius, the range hood should be turned on to save electricity, and people can ride bicycles to and from work. "Taomi water washes vegetables, bath water wipes the floor, and face washing water flushes the toilet." My mother's nagging always rings in my ears. I don't know how many times, my son Wang Xiaojun, who has no memory, went to the toilet and pulled it at will. As long as my mother heard it, she had to keep nagging: "Look at you, you don't have a long memory, water resources are limited, many cities in the world are short of water, and many rural areas are dry. Save water!"

"Fortunately, you are still a teacher, and you are not a laid-off worker. You are not too poor to use tap water, and you are too stingy!" At this time, the son also refused to refute his mother.

"I don't care about water charges, but I'm advocating water conservation. Because I'm a teacher, I should be more conscious of saving and educate my children well! Do you know how many children are groaning in pain because of lack of water in the dry areas of Africa? How many children are struggling on the verge of death! " Just, mom's eloquence is extraordinary, Wang Xiaojun is really too much, so we have to put it down.

I'm looking forward to it. It's finally the winter vacation at school. Wang Xiaojun thinks she can stay with her grandmother in the country for a few more days!

"Dad, tomorrow Saturday, you will rest at home, just give me a drive!" " The son happily packed his luggage and begged his father.

Dad was about to open his mouth when Mom wiped the floor in the living room. When she heard his request, she said, "It's not worthwhile for you to go to the country alone and go back and forth twice! Not to mention spending money, it also produces so much CO2 for no reason, causing environmental pollution. " The son disagreed. "Don't others drive?" Mom said, "We should set a good example, because our family is now rated as one of the five best families, and I am an environmental volunteer." It seems that my son Wang Xiaojun's dream of taking a special bus has been dashed again.

Dad skillfully took over the topic: "Yes, there are many people on the road. When driving in a traffic jam, I always feel confused and tired. Going to the countryside by bus can not only relax, but also save money and kill two birds with one stone. How nice! "

Before my son could get in a word, my father had just finished speaking, and my mother took over: "A bus is actually a small society with all kinds of people, which is good for you to understand the society. In addition, taking the bus alone can better exercise your independence, so why not! "

forget it, don't you think he wants to make trouble with such a mom and dad? The result can be imagined! Following the arrangement of parents, Wang Xiaojun obediently went to grandma's house by bus.

a week later, my son came back from his grandmother's house, took a comfortable bath, and came out of the bathroom. He put the dirty clothes into the washing machine conveniently. Just plug the plug into the power supply, my mother happened to see it, and frowned: "You have few clothes, just wash them by hand. A few clothes turn around in a washing machine, which wastes more electricity!"

The son said reluctantly, "Mom, how tired it is to wash by hand. It is convenient to use the washing machine, which saves time and effort."

As soon as the voice fell here, my mother said sternly, "Do you know how much electricity the washing machine uses for an hour? You are not young. Do you have environmental awareness? You must know that everyone saves even a few tenths of a kilowatt-hour every day, and the accumulated electricity in one year is considerable. "

Dad also came to join in the fun: "It's better to wash by hand, which not only saves electricity, but also cultivates social responsibility." Respect is better than obedience, and the son obediently rolled up his sleeves and started washing clothes.

Seeing the change of parents, Wang Xiaojun couldn't help sighing: "Why are parents so conscious? It is because they not only have environmental awareness, but also have the determination to implement their actions. " Being near Zhu Zhechi, he who is near Mexico is black. Under the influence of his parents' words and deeds, his lifestyle has changed unconsciously. Clothes are washed and dried naturally without entering the dryer; When you see the dripping faucet in the public toilet, take the initiative to tighten it; Take the initiative to bring reusable shopping bags when buying food; Walk upstairs when you have time, and exercise in the community after dinner.

At first, my son thought that his parents' behavior was stingy and unreasonable. He confronted his parents with words and actions. Through communication with his parents, he deepened the far-reaching significance of the insurance ring, thinking that it was a low-carbon lifestyle, which not only rejected extravagance, but also advocated environmental protection.

Now I have become a small environmental protection volunteer. Every weekend, my son and his parents go to the park by bike to pick up garbage and work as environmental protection propagandists. Every year on Arbor Day, my son and his parents take part in tree planting work to do their best for the improvement of the environment in his hometown.

Now three people in the whole family have reached a consensus that low-carbon life is an economic, healthy and happy lifestyle, and they are willing to carry it through to the end!
