them are immediately put to the dustbin. Our Forest Song program will recycle the
leaflets which used to be valueless, sort them out and return them to the
associations,‖ one student responsible for the program was quoted as saying.
Re-using raised the utility rate of leaflets, and thus significantly reduced the waste of
paper. As for the leaflets that could not be used again, they would be contributed to
Forest Song‘s plan of ―turning wastes into trees,‖ another event for a low-carbon
campus.
PKU students and faculties showed their appreciation and support for this program
through active participation. A thick pile of leaflets was collected in just two hours.
The elaborately-designed recycler also became a favorite scene with which young
people took pictures.
This enthusiasm accords with the forest song, a song that future leaders of the
country and the whole world sing for a green globe.
About Beida Linge (Forest Song of PKU) Program:
Forest Song of PKU started in the autumn of 2009 under the support of
Environmental Education Base for Chinese University Students (EEBCUS), and was
the winner of North China Division of the Innovation on Environment Protection
Championship organized by the All-China Youth Federation. ―Forest Song‖ literally
indicates its aim to realize low-carbon ideals through the carbon gathering function of
forests. The program is made up of three major events - turning wastes into trees,
innovation in promoting environmental protection and research on the topic of
low-carbon, in order to increase people‘s environmental awareness.
