Examples of environmental protection and environmental pollution

Protecting the environment for the benefit of mankind.

Tian Guirong, China's non-governmental environmental protection ambassador, on the road to environmental protection.

As a rural woman from Xinxiang County, Henan Province, Tian Guirong has been conscientious for many years, rooted in the front line of environmental protection, and has written a brilliant chapter in China's environmental protection cause with amazing perseverance and persistent faith. She is an internationally renowned environmental protection volunteer, the only winner in Asia to win both the Ford International Environmental Protection Award and the American Grettman Award, and was received by Qu Geping, chairman of the Environment and Resources Protection Committee of the National People's Congress, Xie Zhenhua, director of the State Environmental Protection Administration, and other leaders, and was praised as China's "non-governmental environmental protection ambassador" by the United Nations Environment Programme.

Tian Guirong is engaged in environmental protection work as follows:

1. More than 90,000 yuan at its own expense, 65 tons of waste batteries.

In 1998, when she learned that waste batteries were a strong harm to human beings, she resolutely decided to pay for waste batteries at her own expense. She made 3,000 pennants with green banners, wrote the address of the used battery and the 600 transparent used battery boxes and 50,000 environmental protection proposals, which were distributed to schools in the city.

He also issued a proposal entitled "Don't Spoil the Earth Anymore" in his personal name on "Xinxiang**". Since then, Tian Guirong has relied on the simple emotions of an environmental protection volunteer and an unprecedented concern for environmental protection, walking the streets and alleys, with 2 cents a year for the waste battery. She also organized a large number of environmental protection publicity activities, using Earth Day, Environment Day, and holidays to carry out environmental protection publicity, and made more people aware of the harm of waste batteries through TV and newspapers.

In the past five years, she has personally invested more than 90,000 yuan **65 tons of waste batteries, so that nearly 7 million square meters of land are free from waste battery pollution.

2. Actively carry out a variety of environmental protection publicity practices and environmental education activitiesTian Guirong took advantage of holidays to organize large-scale environmental protection publicity activities at his own expense in various parts of the province, and in Zhengzhou alone, Xinxiang organized 38 large-scale activities such as "10,000 signatures for green Olympic bid" and "life network love environmental protection", with 260,000 participants. At the same time, she also volunteered to teach environmental protection to university students. Over the past few years, Tian Guirong has gone to more than 110 schools in China to promote environmental protection knowledge and explain the dangers of used batteries to more than 300,000 students, with a direct audience of more than 3.6 million people.

During the winter and summer vacations, Tian Guirong organizes environmental protection volunteers at his own expense to investigate environmental protection topics such as white pollution, river pollution, and wetland protection. In order to protect the mother river, Tian Guirong led more than 30 college students to brave the scorching heat many times, hiked 150 kilometers along the Wei River, the People's Shengli Canal, the Communist Canal, the Qin River and the Yellow River to inspect the sewage outlets, conduct water source pollution and water quality analysis, and conduct face-to-face struggles with the illegal sewage discharge of pollutant discharge enterprises, and submitted 24 inspection reports to the higher environmental protection departments, which provided very important information for further protecting the mother river and purifying the water quality source.

3. Create a professional environmental protection "Tian Guirong Environmental Protection Network".

Examples of environmental pollution: the Dead Lake incident in North America, the Cadiz oil tanker incident, the West German forest blight incident, the Chernobyl nuclear leakage incident, and the Rhine River pollution incident. If the discharged substances exceed the self-purification capacity of the environment, the environmental quality will undergo adverse changes, endangering human health and survival, which will cause environmental pollution.

Due to the lack of anticipation and prevention of the negative impact of highly developed industry, it has led to three major crises around the world: resource shortage, environmental pollution, and ecological destruction. Environmental pollution refers to the act of natural or man-made destruction, adding a certain substance to the environment and exceeding the self-purification ability of the environment and causing harm.

The phenomenon that the composition or state of the environment changes due to human factors, and the quality of the environment declines, thereby disturbing and destroying the normal production and living conditions of the ecosystem and human beings.

1. Clothes can be concentrated and then washed, which can reduce water consumption. The use of phosphorus-free laundry detergent during washing can reduce environmental pollution and protect rivers and lakes;

2. Detergent is not necessary to be used for washing dishes and chopsticks, and I feel that even if I use a product like Amway, it may still have an impact on the environment, and I can not use it;

3. If possible, you can try to buy green pollution-free food and organic food;

4. When washing hands, the water faucet can be turned on smaller, and the washing water or face washing water used at home can be left to flush the toilet, so that one water can be used for multiple purposes - let the water be reused;

5. Reduce the use of unnecessary lighting and electrical appliances at home or at work. It is also economical to use energy-saving lamps and energy-saving or low-energy products, including not setting the temperature of the air conditioner too low in the summer;

6. In the choice of transportation, try to choose public transportation or cycling and walking, in addition to economic and environmental protection, you can also achieve the purpose of fitness.
