low carbon move英语作文this week i

Since we want to talk about low carbon, we must first know: what is low carbon? As the name suggests, low carbon mainly refers

to

reducing

carbon

dioxide

emissions.

My

understanding of low carbon is to start from myself and small things in daily life, to save energy to the greatest extent and reduce all avoidable consumption to the greatest extent.

Low carbon is actually very simple. As long as we choose the right method, we can easily become a \"low carbon family\". We can't live without one thing - electricity. There are washing machines, televisions, refrigerators, electric lights and \"computers\" in almost every family. Speaking of computers, we all know. But do you use computers in a low-carbon way? Every time you turn off your computer, have you ever thought about unplugging it. We don't care about these little things in our life, but do you know how much electricity your computer consumes every day? The computer also consumes energy during sleep, about 7.5 watts. It is puzzling that the power

consumption reaches 51.48 watts when entering standby under WindowsXP! It indicates that the motherboard still consumes a lot of power to protect data at this time; Even if the machine is turned off, as long as the plug is not unplugged, the computer still consumes energy, about 4.81 watts! If the computer socket is not unplugged, about 146 kilowatt hours of electricity will be wasted a year. In the standby mode, the equipment does not cut off the power supply and does not operate the main functions. It looks like it is turned off. In fact, a small number of lines and components inside the appliance are working with electricity. The power consumption in this state is the standby energy consumption. Like remote control and intelligent switch, they not only make the appliance more convenient to use, but also add a \"standby energy consumption\" to the appliance.

Choosing a low-carbon life is actually very simple: save every drop of water and every kilowatt hour of electricity. Starting from the little things around us, to be a little guardian of environmental protection, one person may have little power,

but if we act together, the result will not be disappointing. Please remember that you are a \"low-carbon family\" if you try to reduce the energy consumed in life, work and rest at any time.
