On Low Carbon Living
Low carbon living is living in such a way as to make the least contribution of carbon emissions to the environment.For example,some people do not own private cars and even avoid taking taxis if possible,They choose trains rather than planes foor long-distance trips,and take buses,ride bikes or even walk to places nearby.
Why is there such an interest in low carbon living?In recent years,environmentalists have begun to suspect that carbon emissions from human society are a major contributing factor to the current global warming phenomenon.The rapid increase in carbon emissions over the past few decades has been alarming.Apart from the global warming issue,living a low carbon life can also be good for the health of the local environment.
To live a low carbon life myself,I take public transportation whenever and wherever possible.It takes longer to travel,but I have found that i can do an amazing number of things while on the bus or subway,from listening to English on my MP3 player to reading my favorite books.I hope more and more people will live a cow carbon life for the sake of our world.
我大概写了有120字左右。如果在五分钟以内的发言，起码得说到4分钟，所以估计这个字数不够。但总体思路是对的。第一段是解释了现象，什么是低碳生活？第二段阐释意义，为什么要提倡低碳生活？第三段提出观点：低碳生活从我做起。如果您有需要的话，在里面添加点案例就行了。
1、低碳生活从我做起

低碳排放：英文为low carbon。意指较低（更低）的温室气体（二氧化碳为主）排放。随着世界工业经济的发展、人口的剧增、人类欲望的无限上升和生产生活方式的无节制，世界气候面临越来越严重的问题，二氧化碳排放量愈来愈大，地球臭氧层正遭受前所未有的危机，全球灾难性气候变化屡屡出现，已经严重危害到人类的生存环境和健康安全，即使人类曾经引以为豪的高速增长或膨胀的GDP也因为环境污染、气候变化而“大打折扣”（也因此，各国曾呼唤“绿色GDP”的发展模式和统计方式）。
低碳生活(low carbon living)，就是指生活作息时要尽力减少所消耗的能量，特别是二氧化碳的排放量，从而低碳，减少对大气的污染，减缓生态恶化。主要是从节电、节气和回收三个环节来改变生活细节。低碳意指较低（更低）的温室气体（二氧化碳为主）的排放，低碳生活可以理解为：减少二氧化碳的排放，低能量、低消耗、低开支的生活方式。如今，这股风潮逐渐在我国一些大城市兴起，潜移默化地改变着人们的生活。低碳生活代表着更健康、更自然、更安全，返璞归真地去进行人与自然的活动。
