No Trading (交易) No Killing

Otters (水獭) are cute water animals. These days, keeping otters as pets is getting popular in Japan and Indonesia. In fact, wild otters are facing problems--they have long been hunted (猎杀) for their coats; in some places, fishermen have been killing otters to stop them from eating fish; and now, the online pet trade has become another big problem for them.

The Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics was a great success. China has kept the promise to hold a green Olympics. Many green actions made it possible, like providing environmentally friendly smart beds, using new energy (能源) cars, supporting sporting places with 100% clean energy and reusing rain and snow water.

Save Wetlands

An important meeting on wetlands kicked off on Saturday in Wuhan, China. Wetlands are a natural water holding system (体系) that can make polluted water clean and prevent floods (防洪). The water is home to many kinds of animals. Birds use wetlands seasonally during their migration (迁徙). Now more than half of world's wetlands have disappeared since the beginning of the 20th century. If this goes on, more plant and animal species will surely die out.
