让环保成为一种习惯
To Make Environmental Protection a Habit
各位老师好！各位评委好！各位同学们好！
Good morning all teachers, judges, boys and girls:
我的演讲题目是《让环保成为一种习惯》
My topic in this speech is To Make Environmental Protection a Habit
对不起！我习惯了！
Sorry, I am used to it.
我不是故意的，因为耳边很少有人提醒我；我不是故意的，因为周围大多数人都这样；我真的不是故意的，因为我经常在想扔垃圾的时候却总也找不到垃圾桶……
I didn’t do it deliberately, because nobody reminds me of it; I didn’t do it deliberately, because most of people do it as it is; I really didn’t do it deliberately, because I can’t find the trash can when I want to drop litter……
这些话是理由，也是现实。
These words are the reason and also the reality.
“习惯”是一点一滴，循环往复，无数重复的行为动作养成的，动作的养成不仅需要正确的宣传指引，还需要相应的实际有效的配套设施。就像电脑一样：软件硬件都要好，同步发展，才能有效实现环保。否则，我们只能按现有的生活方式继续我们的习惯。
“Habit” is developed through circulating and numerous repeated actions bit by bit. The development of habit not only needs correct publicity and guidance, but also corresponding actual and effective supporting facilities; just like the computer: environmental protection can be effectively realized through good quality software and hardware and their joint development. Otherwise, we may continue our habits according to current lifestyle.
环保不是一句口号，而应该从一点一滴的小事做起：一节废弃的电池可使一平方米的土地永久失去利用价值；一个随手扔掉的塑料袋就可以产生“视觉污染”和“潜在危害”两种负面效应。一点一点垃圾的积累会让地球变得满目疮痍，一棵一棵树的倒下会让我们的绿色被沙漠取而代之，一个又一个污染源的建立会让我们的空气从此不再清新！
Environmental protection is not just a slogan and we should start from petty things bit by bit: one deserted battery can make the land of one square meter permanently lost its application value; a discarded plastic bag can produce two negative effects of “visual pollution” and “potential hazard”. Rubbish accumulation bit by bit may let the earth in a state of devastation; falling down of trees may make our green land into desert; the foundation of the pollution source one after another will make our air not fresh any more.
聚沙成塔，集腋成裘，巨大的灾难往往源于我们当初的一点小的举动，源于我们当初的一点小习惯！
Many a little makes a mickle. Great disaster usually derives from our original small action and our original little habits.
过去的地球，是何等美丽？蓝的天、绿的地、清的水，然而这一切在慢慢地变成为一种童话里才有的境界，离我们已经越来越远……
In the past, we usually sighed: what a beautiful earth! blue sky; green land, clear water. However, these beautiful sceneries are getting further and further away from us and becoming a state existed in fairy tale.
如果失去了我们赖以生存的地球，人类也会面临灭亡，这一点我们已经知道；人类向自然界过度的索取，已经导致了大自然给我们的飓风、暴雨、暴风雪、洪涝、干旱、虫害、酷暑等一系列的报复，这些我们也知道。然而对于环境保护我们也仍然停留在知道。难道靠知道就行了吗？不！我们还一定要做！做！又是口号！又是奔跑呼喊、声嘶力竭的口号！
We already know that if we lost our planet we inhabited, human itself will face death too. We also know that human’s overtaking from nature has caused a series of revenge from nature, such as typhoon, rainstorm, snowstorm, flood, drought, insect attack and the intense heat of summer, etc. However, for environmental protection, the only answer we get is we know it. But is it ok for just knowing it? the answer is no. we shall not only know, but also do it. Doing it is another slogan, a running hoarse slogan.
停一停奔走的脚步吧！顿一顿沙哑的喉咙吧！要想控制行动，就要采取行动！
Stop your steps and your hoarse throat. If you want to control action, just take action.
举这样一个例子：酒后驾车的危害我们一直在说，说了很多年，结果仍然是事故频发，而有史以来最严厉的新交规一经出台，酒驾事故立即大幅下降，这就是制度的力量，这就是以行动控制行动的力量！
Take the following as an example: we have always taking about the dangers of drunk driving for many years. The result is accident still occurs frequently. However, after the introduction of the most strict new traffic rules in history, the drunk driving accident immediately decreased sharply. This is the power of policy and the power of action controlling action.
如果一个人的行为得到了大家的认可和赞扬，那么他的行为更具执行力，这是奖励的力量！
If someone is recognized and praised by everyone, his action has more executive force. This is the power of award.
所以在环保的控制上，我想也应该出台相应的奖励和处罚政策奖要奖得心花怒放！罚要罚得胆战心惊！
As such, we shall introduce corresponding awards and punishment policy in environmental protection control. Heavy award and heavy punishment.
在软件硬件一起上，也就是宣传到位、设施跟上的情况下，我们很容易养成习惯！在奖励的鼓舞下，在惩罚的提醒下，生活就会变得有节制、有规律，我们自然就会养成习惯！在那个时候，再也不需要过多投入对环保的管理，因为那个时候，我们已经习惯了！
Under the circumstance of good quality software and hardware i.e. proper publicity and facilities, we may easily develop a habit. Under the encouragement of award and reminder of punishment, our life will become restrained and regular and we will sure be used to it. At that time, we do not need to pay more attention on environmental protection, because at that time, we are used to it.
随手扶植一棵小草，随手裁下一棵小树，随手将垃圾归类；随时绿色出行，随时珍惜我们有限的资源……我们随时随地善待我们的地球，大自然依然会给我们回报，那时候，依然会是蓝的天、绿的地、清的水……
Lift up a small grass at your convenience, plant a small tree at your convenience and classify the rubbish at your convenience; prepare green travel at any time and cherish our limited resources at all times……Treat our earth in a friendly way at any time in any place, the nature will repay us as before. At that time, there are still blue sky, green land and clear water…..
谢谢大家！
Thank you.
