Green Life Style

Tags:

This is the second day of Climate Conference in Copenhagen. It is essential for the worlds climate and the Danish government and UNFCCC is putting hard effort in making the meeting in Copenhagen a success ending up with a Copenhagen Protocol to prevent global warming and climate changes.

As a part of the globle, I think we have the duty to protect our unique and common home, the globle. What do we need to do in our lives? I think a healthy life style and habite will be a useful and effective method. Such as saving the water, electricity, gas and so on.

Energy

  • Conserve fuel by turning down the heat at night and while you are away from your home — or install a programmable thermostat.
  • Use compact fluorescent light bulbs.
  • Insulate your home against heat loss and periodically check insulation.
  • Fix air leakage with weather-stripping and caulking.
  • In the winter, change your furnace air filters once a month. The heater uses more energy when it is full of dust.
  • Insulate your electric hot water heater and pipes. Do not, however, insulate gas heaters and only start insulating gas heater pipes about six inches away from the heater.
  • Avoid using cars — walk, cycle or use public transportation whenever possible.
  • Avoid anything battery operated (or use rechargables or solar rechargables if batteries are unavoidable).
  • Buy locally — not only is it good for the local economy, it will save energy because products haven’t traveled across the globe to get to you.
  • Waste

  • Do not throw out your toxic household wastes, such as paint, paint thinner and car fluids, in the garbage or down the drain. Check with your local facilities for proper disposal and avoid these products in the future.
  • Take your own bags to the grocery store. If you take plastic bags, use them until they are worn out.
  • Compost your food waste and use as nutrient rich soil for your lawn.
  • Avoid excess packaging.
  • Always use reusables: mugs, lunch containers, batteries, pens, razors, etc.
  • Replace paper products with reusable ones (use recycled, non-chlorine bleached paper when you do have to use paper).
  • Travel to Jiuzhaigou Valley

    As the saying goes “when coming back from the Yellow Mountains one does not want to see a mountain; when coming back from Jiuzhaigou one does not want to see water.” Known as ‘king of Chinese water scenes’, The essence of Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area lies in its waters: lakes, spring waters, streams, waterfalls, rivers and shoals. It is a great masterpiece of nature having dreamlike scenery and abundant natural resources.

    Known as ‘king of Chinese water scenes’, The essence of Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area lies in its waters: lakes, spring waters, streams, waterfalls, rivers and shoals. It is a great masterpiece of nature having dreamlike scenery and abundant natural resources.

    The name “Jiuzhaigou”
    Its name is due to the existence of nine stockaded villages of Tibetan origin, and it is always regarded as a holy mountain and watercourse by the Tibetan people. Ancient Chinese legend has it that the goddess accidentally broke her mirror here and the pieces which fell down the mountain formed beautiful lakes, streams and waterfalls. The scenery here is extremely beautiful. The scenic spot actually consists of three major gullies, which formerly was the site of nine stockaded villages of Tibetans.

    The scenery in Jiuzhaigou is simply charming in all seasons. The spring witnesses green buds coming out of branches and waterfalls flowing briskly; in summer, the lakes are surrounded by green shades where birds sing and dance in between; leaves turn colorful in autumn while everywhere becomes a color palette; in winter, while the mountains and valleys are wrapped in snow, the waterfalls are much of some running jades. In a secluded pure land deep on the plateau, where the tranquility reveals our heartbeats and the breathtaking sceneries of the four seasons linger, you can hardly confess your feelings in any earthly words. Jiuzhaigou is a divine place of water. Water is the soul of the place, embodied by the mountain lakes and waterfalls. The water in Jiuzhaigou is crystal clear, yet presenting multicolored and twinkling brightness with refractions of the depositions formed under the lakes by dissolved limestone and multiple minerals. Coupled along the lakeshore with the inverted reflection of the tree colors, which will change with seasons, the scenery of lake and mountain builds Jiuzhaigou into a magic dreamy wonderland. What a holy pure “fairyland”!

    Bali, the mystical and beautiful Island which attracts hundreds of thousands of tourists each year. It is also a great place to spend honeymoon. Bali is the paradise for honeymooner that many couple wish to spend such a special occasion on the island. The beautiful beaches with the warm Atlantic Ocean waves crashing up on to the white sand and the friendly locals with their unique smile makes this an Island many return to.

    When planning your next vacation consider the Saner beach, situated in the southeastern side of Bali, and just a 10-minute drive from Denpasar. Bali Villas located in this area are excellent to jog on the sandy beach and watch the sunrises. Many of those villas near the ancient temple were constructed as the first resort centers developed on the island.

    If you want to rent a Villa in Bali located on the opposite side of Sanur, the beaches of Legian and Kuta are situated in the southwest part of the island, offering surfing and other activities that watersports enthusiasts will enjoy. With many shops scattered all over the seashore, pubs and other facilities, Kuta has become the Indonesian tourist Mecca.

    Traveling to any of these destinations brings you not only to Bali Villas, but also to memorable experiences enjoying the local culture, public dance performers and the pleasant and varied environment surrounding each setting, ranging from natural wilderness to romantic gateways and spiritual landmarks.

    The time to travel:
    A honeymoon to Bali will heat you up in more ways than one. Temperatures that hover in the eighties year round, coupled with high humidity are likely to leave you perspiring throughout the day and night. Doesn’t sound romantic? Think of it another way: scantily clad. Leave your coats at home and opt for your bathing suit, and loose, lightweight attire. The high season is July through August and again in December and January. The rainy season lasts from October to April, where sudden downpours usually last no more than an hour. Hotel rates are considerably cheaper in the low season.

    Eating and Drinking
    After shedding pounds in order to squeeze into that wedding day attire, be prepared to accumulate some added weight on your visit to Bali. There is simply no good reason to refuse a plate of nasi goreng, a cup of ginseng coffee or an Arak cocktail. A couple of restaurants that simply cannot be overlooked include: the Cafe Lotus in Ubud and the hip hot-spot Ku De Ta in Seminyak.

    With the busy summer months starting to come to a close, October is an ideal time to look for a cheap holiday to Greece. Prices will be coming down, but the temperature will still be fairly hot, and if you’re just looking for a relaxing rest on a beach, or a nice cruise with various ancient sights to see, this is a great time to go to Greece which is the perfect place to plan your holidays. It is a beautiful country characterised by its mountainous landscapes, its incredible weather, its many islands, its long sandy beaches and more.

    Holiday in Greece is the dream of a lifetime for many people, as shown by surveys conducted in different countries around the world. And  I heard that  Greece is the most beautiful and romantic place for lovers from some people who traveled all over the word .The most beautiful sight in Greece may be the Aegean Sea.

    The beaches of Rhodes are among the most beautiful of the Aegean Sea. Some with white pebbles, others with sand, these beaches have lead in the North of the island to the building of sunny seaside resorts, along the Triante Bay on the West coast or the Bays of Rhodes and Kallithéas, on the East coast. The most famous and beautiful of all the beaches is unquestionably Tsampika, on the East coast, a few miles from Kolymbia. Overlooked by the monastery, nested more than 300 metres above the sea, it has an admirable turquoise transparent lagoon, worthy of the most beautiful Caribbean beaches.

    The Greek countryside is also ideal for new types of tourism, ecology tourism (ecotourism) , geotourism and active tourism that addresses to nature lovers and includes practicing various types of activities, such as visiting mineral areas, protected areas but also canoeing, river trekking and rafting in the deep rivers, mountain biking, rock climbing, jeep tours, horse riding or just some walking and bird watching in the steep mountains and the Greek National Parks. However, we should always make sure that our activities do not disturb but protect the environment.

    Your vacations in Greece will definitely stay in your mind for many years to come! It is easy to reach Greece by all means of transport and getting around within the country’s limit is equally easy.

    rock-climbing
    Rock climbing was recognized as an elegant, civilized, high-level sports and leisure activities. With the continuous development of social economy,and  people’s living standard rising, the movement is gradually being more accepted and loved by young people.
    If you come to China and as a climbing fan, you can not miss Yang shuo, the best place for climbing.The heavily-eroded limestone offers wonderful settings as well as a wide range of hand and foot holds. The sheer variety that is available is enough to tempt any climber here, and many do find it hard to leave again.

    There are several rock-climbing operators in town. Standards vary and it is worth getting local advice, especially if you are a total beginner. At least ask about about qualifications and take a look at how the equipment is stored. Ropes are your lifeline, and should be treated with total respect at all times. Walk away if you see these tossed casually on the floor. You should be provided with a helmet, and should wear it, especially at the bottom of the crag where loose bits of stone tend to get knocked down.

    Becoming a mountain climbing guide requires a serious amount of training and experience.
    1.Climb regularly. Go mountain climbing and skiing as often as you can on many different ranges. The more experience you can garner, the easier it is to take the necessary guide exams.
    2.Take a mountaineering course. Some guide services such as Alpine Ascents International lead classes, or take courses the American Mountain Guides Association offers.

    3.Receive certification from the American Mountain Guides Association (AMGA) and the International Federation of Mountain Guides Associations by enrolling in courses and passing the necessary exams.

     4.Seek employment with guide services, or become an individual mountain climbing guide. Some may not like the more restricted atmosphere working for a guide service, or the lower pay. It is up to the individual.
    5.Read books on teaching. Develop some routines and exercises that you are comfortable with. You’ll need them to work with your clients and to evaluate their skills.

     6.Prepare to spend time with people from many different walks of life. Be patient, supportive and make the client feel a part of the mountain climbing expedition, not simply a person on the end of a rope.
