By outdoor-nature-child.com On October 19th in Shanghai, actor Hu Ge took a stand for environmental conservation by urging everyone to do their part. “I advocate for saving every kilowatt of electricity and every drop of water,” he said in a video message. “I hope you will join me in taking personal action for a low-carbon lifestyle.” This call to action came as the 10th Shanghai International Nature Conservation Week kicked off, with Hu Ge and fellow actor Chen Long stepping into the roles of “Green Low-Carbon Action Ambassadors” to encourage collective participation in nature conservation efforts.
In his own video message, Chen Long emphasized the importance of green consumption and the “clean plate” campaign, where he encouraged individuals to prioritize purchasing energy-efficient and environmentally friendly products. He remarked, “Living green and low-carbon is not just a way of life; it’s a mindset.”
Nature conservation, he noted, is an ongoing marathon without a finish line. This year, the Shanghai International Nature Conservation Week celebrates its tenth anniversary with the theme “Empowering Beautiful China through Technology, Leading Green Development through Innovation,” offering a series of engaging public activities.
Following the opening ceremony, the week officially commenced, featuring a diverse array of nine thematic events throughout Shanghai. Among these, the “Celebrity Forum” will tackle trending topics like “New-Type Productive Forces Driving Green and High-Quality Development,” sharing cutting-edge technologies and practical experiences with the public. Additionally, “Youth-Themed Activities” will encourage children to observe nature and conduct ecological surveys. The “Thematic Photography Exhibition” invites public participation in bird conservation and photography, while “Science Popularization Venue Activities” aim to engage citizens in urban biodiversity research extending to the Yangtze River Delta.
Shanghai aspires to foster innovation in green technology and environmental protection, enhancing the “green content” of its ecology to elevate the “gold content” of its development, thereby allowing citizens to share in the achievements of ecological civilization.
