一、
April 22nd is World Earth Day- -a day to remind people to protect the earth. So on that day, our family held an activity “bottle of trash challenge". That means the trash needs to be put in a 600ml bottle. We decided to challenge ourselves and produce as little trash as possible.
My father worked online all day, so he didn't produce any paper waste except paper napkins. He made the least trash in our family.
My mother cooked and produced plenty of kitchen waste, such as vegetable leaves, eggshells and food bags. What's worse, we couldn't eat up all the food of the dinner that day. So leftovers couldn't be avoided. It was not easy for mom to deal with all the trash, but she found a way to put it all into the bottle. How amazing!
My sister, a 16-year-old student, was busy preparing for her exams. She had to use paper to work out math or physics problems. She used only one side of the paper in the past. But that day, she tried to use both sides of the paper because she realized we were challenging ourselves. She did a good job!
I was different from my sister. I love snacks and drinks. So my trash was almost from them. I was highly alert( 警觉的) that I must produce less waste. I hardly ever had snacks or drinks. It was too difficult, but I did it!
I've learnt a lot from this activity. I realize that everyone can produce less trash. We should start with small actions to protect the earth!
