5. I think that Earth Hour is a really good way to let people know that little things they do can make

a big difference to the earth.

Earth Hour started in Sydney, Australia, in March 2007. Now cities all around the world join in for

Earth Hour. During Earth Hour people should turn off their lights, televisions and computers to save

the earth.

People save a lot of energy around the world during Earth Hour, but they should think more than one

hour of energy saving. People should help the earth every hour of every day. Walking to school or

the shop saves energy. Using both sides of the paper saves energy. Turning off the tap(水龙头)

when you brush your teeth saves energy. When you stop and think about it, there are so many simple

things people can do every day to rescue the earth.

Being part of Earth Hour connects people around the world for something good. I am going to be

part of Earth Hour again next year. I hope you will be too.

If we put fresh water and sea water together, we can each get 620m3 water. However, sea water is

too salty for us to drink if the factories don’t process (加工) it first. So, 620m3 is little. Saving water

in daily life is important.

There are 3,869 billion hectares (公顷) of forests on Earth. But we are losing them because we cut

trees too much. If we calculate (计算) at the size of a football field, we are losing 343,000 football

fields every day, or 1431 per hour, or 24 per minute!

All the corals (珊瑚) that we have now are about 100,000 km long in 109 countries. But each of us

can only have such a little piece, because seas are getting polluted and corals are dying.

According to the latest report, there are 200 billion stars in the Milky Way. Each of us can have 33

of them. Unfortunately, we cannot see most of the 200 billion stars from Earth. We can only see

about 6.000 stars. If we don’t use telescopes (望远镜) or we have bad weather, we can only see

about 2, 000 stars.

On average(平均), we get 0.54 billion tons of rice each year round the world and each of us can

have 90 kg. People from Asia produce and eat 90%of all the rice. How long will it take you to eat up

this 90 kg rice?
