Description of Our Community: We live in Taipei City, and in response to the global effort to control climate changes, we, Taipei City, as a member of the international community and global village, cannot forget our responsibilities. We enthusiastically plan and set into motion many actions to control greenhouse gas emission, cooperate in international reduction conferences and organizations, and exchange experience and ideas with foreign cities on the efforts of reduction. This is to let the international community understand what Taipei City is doing to stabilize the climate and work for a better future. Accomplishing our responsibilities as a member of the global community and promoting Taipei City’s international status and reputation should be a focus of the overall plan to respond to the world’s changing climates.

Project Description: We are the “Environmental Scouts”, and we are making plans and actively trying to lower the amount of greenhouse gases. This activity is also integrated with Bin Jiang Elementary School’s “Bin Jiang Learning” program, to use the spirit of caring for our environment in a themed educational project. This will allow students to directly take notice of the greenhouse gas produced by everyday activities, to understand the relationship between personal behavior and the amount of gas released, and to try to make plans to achieve reduction. Further more, a self consciousness of “taking action for reduction” should be developed, and should help build a role model for younger grades, further influencing parents, families, and communities through these classes. We hope that through this research project, we can accomplish reduction of greenhouse gases to do what we can for the Earth that we all live on.
