Good morning, everyone,
My topic today is how to live a low?carbon life. As we all know, the earth is becoming warmer and warmer due to the global climate change. Many people may think that low?carbon life is far away from us. However, every one of us can reduce our daily carbon emissions by doing something.
Firstly, changing our previous living habit of wasting things is the first step. We can use energy?saving electricity lights instead of the traditional lights. Never leave the water running when we don’t use it. When we need to contact someone, it’s better to send an e?mail than use paper to write letters.Use the public transport or ride your bicycle instead of driving private cars when we travel somewhere.
It is believed that the global climate change is due to the human’s activities. Only if we know what we do in our daily life and live a low?carbon life can we make a difference.
1.We should respect how much we could use in the world，save energy and start a low carbon life to save our ecosystem.
翻译：
对于我们现在的生活我们应该知足，节能和开始低碳生活才能保护我们的世界。
2.But they have overlooked one fact: in China, low-carbon living comes at a high cost.
翻译：但在目前的中国，过低碳生活要付出高昂的成本，环保组织忽略了这一现实。
3.The sector is dominated by small, informal traders, and the environmental consequences of this already have already been covered in our earlier article "Low-carbon living begins at work".
这一市场被非正式的小型商家占领，这一状况对环境造成的影响我们已经在“低碳生活从工作开始”（Low-carbonlivingbeginsatwork）一文中进行过报道。
4.The main exhibition hall of this science and technology museum consists of five sections –the world of carbon, global warming, low-carbon city, low-carbon living and low-carbon future.
博物馆的主展厅分为五个部分，分别是碳的世界、全球变暖、低碳的城市、低碳的生活和低碳的未来。
5.Simple to understand, low-carbon life is back to nature to man and nature to carry out the activities, mainly from the energy-saving solar term and recovery of the three links to change the details of life.
简单理解，低碳生活就是返璞归真地去进行人与自然的活动，主要是从节电节气和回收三个环节来改变生活细节。
希望对楼主有帮助。

我的低碳生活
随着社会的发展,低碳生活变得越来越重要.一些人认为它是很难做到的.事实上,我们可以做很多事情.
首先,作为一个学生,我们中的一些人会骑自行车去上学,或每天步行去学校.它不仅可以节约能源,而且它有利于我们的健康.第二,我们离开教室的时候,记得关灯,所以它可以节省电力.第三,我们可以使用循环用水.第四,我们可以使用系统.
我想,如果每个人都为低碳生活做一些事情,世界将变得更加美丽.

With the development of society,low-carbon life becomes more and more important. Some people think it is very difficult to do.In fact,we can do a lot of things .
First, as a student,some of us can ride a bike to go to school, or walk to school every day.It can not only save energy but also it is good to our healty. Second,when we leave the classroom,remember to turn off the lights, so it can save electricity.And third, we can use the water circulary. Fourth,we can use the paper adequately .
I think if everyone does something for the low-carbon life,the world will become more and more beautiful.
Low-carbon life is the lifestyle of the time to minimize energy consumption, thereby reducing carbon dioxide emissions. Low-carbon life, for those of us ordinary people is an attitude to life. It gives us is a willing and we were creating a low carbon life issues.(低碳生活就是把生活作息时间所耗用的能量要尽量减少，从而减低二氧化碳的排放量。低碳生活，对于我们这些普通人来说是一种生活态度。它给我们提出的是一个愿不愿意和大家共创造低碳生活的问题。)Taomi Shui can be used to wash their hands every day, clean furniture, water the flowers and so on. Clean, natural moisture; 2. Scrap paper will pave the lowest in the closet can not only absorb moisture, can absorb the smell in the closet; 4.

Low-carbon life, for us ordinary people, an attitude, not ability, we should actively promote and to practice the "low carbon" life, pay attention to energy saving, fuel-efficient, water saving, solar terms, starting from scratch.(生活作息时所耗用能量要减少，从而减低碳，特别是二氧化碳的排放。低碳生活，对于我们普通人来说，是一种态度，而不是能力，我们应该积极提倡并去实践"低碳"生活，注意节电、节油、节水、节气，从点滴做起。)
1.目前低碳生活成为一种流行
2.低碳生活指的是……
3.作为大学生我应该怎么做
With the advent of the global environmental protection campaign, “low-carbon” has become an increasingly popular expression, a catch phrase, among the environmentally-conscious people. White-collar workers pride themselves on going to offices on bicycles, on foot, or even on roller skates instead of being “the men behind the wheel”. Housewives save water after washing vegetables or clothes for flushing the toilet. Everybody seems to be an environmental activist nowadays.
随着全球性环保运动的出现，“低碳”一词在那些有着环保意识的人们中间，已成为一个日趋流行的语汇，或曰“口头禅”。白领员工们对于骑车上班、步行上班、甚至滑着轮滑上班倍感骄傲，而不必再做那所谓的“呆坐在驾驶舵后面的有车一族”。家庭主妇们也乐此不疲地在洗衣或洗菜之后，将水保存起来，用以冲厕。当下，每个人似乎都成为了环保积极分子。
By “low-carbon lifestyle”, we refer to a pattern of life involving minimum emission of carbon dioxide (CO2), the most important greenhouse gas produced by human activities, primarily through the combustion of fossil fuels. Carbon dioxide is detrimental to human, animal and plant life because it is the primary contributor to global warming that threatens to raise the sea level, leading to the extinction of animals and plants, and ultimately to that of human beings. There is only one Mother Earth for human beings and, literally speaking, preserving the Earth means preserving humanity itself.
所谓“低碳生活方式”， 是指一种仅涉及最低限度二氧化碳排放的生活模式。二氧化碳是人类活动 （主要经由化石燃料的燃烧）所产生的最主要的温室气体。二氧化碳之所以对人类、动物和植物的生命有害，因为它是全球暖化的主要推手，威胁着致使海平面上升，导致动植物灭绝，并最终导致人类本身的灭绝。对于人类而言，只有一个地球母亲，因此，就事论事地讲，保护地球亦即意味着保护人类自身。
The pursuit of a low-carbon lifestyle seems to be a vogue to many people but, in essence, it is a long-term necessity. As college students, there are many ways we can become involved in low-carbon endeavors. We can conserve water, recycle our textbooks, and turn off lights on leaving our classrooms. We can resort to public transportations like buses and subways instead of taxis or private cars. Most importantly, we should reduce the use of computers by rejecting meaningless computer games. Even as students, we have a whole range of channels to pursue a low-carbon lifestyle that is beneficial to ourselves and to humanity as a whole.
追求低碳的生活方式，对许多人而言似乎是种时尚，但本质而言，它却是一项长期的必然。作为大学生，我们有多种多样的方式来投身于低碳事业。我们可以节约用水，循环利用教科书，离开教室时随手关灯。我们在出行时可利用公交车或地铁等公共交通，而放弃出租车或私家车。最重要的是，我们可以通过摒弃那些无聊的电子游戏而减少对电脑的使用。即使作为学生，我们有一系列广泛的渠道，来追求低碳的生活方式，既有益于我们自己，亦有益于全人类。
