Hello, everyone. My name is Nana. I'm a middle school student in Guiyang. First, I will ask you a question: When you can't finish your school lunch, will you throw away the leftovers? I think most of you will say "Yes"". But in my school, students don't want to waste(浪费) food like this. Our school is holding a very meaningful activity this term. We start a "Clear Your Plate" campaign at school.
Our school gives a set meal to everyone for lunch. In my class，when we have lunch, we often "share" to save food. For example, if I don't feel like eating anything or there is one dish I don't like, I can use serving chopsticks(公筷) to give some of my food to a classmate who would like to eat more or likes the dish. We are happy that we can reduce food waste in this way. Every day, our teacher eats lunch with us in our dining hall. She always says, "Treasuring(珍惜) food is a good eating habit. "Now, all of us can finish our lunches.
What else can we do to help save food? I think we can do a lot more. For example:●Don't buy more than you need.
●Tell your parents not to cook more than your family are going to eat.
●Finish your food before it goes bad.
