FOTILE Double 11 advocates planting trees to retain APEC blue

Last night, when I returned to Beijing from a business trip, I suddenly found myself traveling through time.

From the moment the plane landed in Beijing, I was overwhelmed by a strong sense of strangeness. Outside the cabin, I had a bird's eye view of the vast expanse of brightly lit buildings; from the taxi, I could see a road that seemed to stretch as far as the eye could see but was not congested at all; the scenery on both sides of the road that kept coming into view was strange yet a little familiar...

Is this Beijing? What went wrong? It was not until long after I got home that I suddenly realized the reason: there is no! fog! haze today!

This reminds me of the heroic deeds of many "righteous people" not long ago. It was an ordinary day in October 2014. Tens of thousands of brave men and women at home and abroad, shouldering a sense of responsibility and mission, regardless of their personal safety, resolutely joined a haze-absorbing competition pseudonymously called "Beijing Marathon" by drawing lots - yes, the clear sky last night must have their contribution!

Well, no, ever since smog began to cover the land of China many years ago, billions of human vacuum cleaners have failed to stop the smog from exceeding expectations.

How serious is air pollution? Last year, smog affected 25 provinces and more than 100 large and medium-sized cities. The average number of smog days in the country was 29.9 days, the highest in 52 years. Beijing's situation is not the worst, but it is one of the worst. Data shows that from April 2008 to March 2014, there were a total of 2,028 days, and Beijing's air quality met the "good" standard of the United States for only 25 days. The respiratory disease caused by smog weather is called "Beijing cough", which is now more well-known than Beijing roast duck and Peking opera, and has long been famous all over the world.

But a world-renowned meeting changed everything!

"There is a kind of blue, it is not Prussian blue, nor Tiffany blue; it is not the azure blue of the sea, nor the deep blue of blueberries. It is called APEC blue, formerly known as the 2008 Olympic blue, and it belongs to Beijing! The Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) meeting is about to be held. Beijing has implemented the odd-even number restriction on motor vehicles since November 3. With everyone's efforts, Beijing has finally cleared the smog and the blue sky is blooming!"

With APEC Blue, we Beijingers no longer cough, no longer pant when going downstairs, no longer worry about going upstairs, and it is effortless to reach 16 floors in one breath (there is an elevator).

But experts say that APEC blue is not good enough. We need to make APEC blue a permanent blue. Especially for ordinary people like us, everyone has a responsibility and everyone must work hard!

If you want to keep the blue, go out less shopping; if you want the blue to stay forever, have fewer children and plant more trees!

I heard that Beijing has only had a few days of smog-free days after the city restricted its people's travel, limited the number of people on the subway, stopped factories and closed shops, and stopped burning in Babaoshan. Many friends can't wait to see what happens. Fangtai promotes green shopping and has launched a campaign to plant 10,000 trees (asking Fangtai to plant 10,000 trees alone? That's pretty ambitious).

Well, it's not Fang Tai's FOTILE, but the leading high-end kitchen appliance brand FOTILE. Coinciding with Double Eleven, FOTILE first advocates green online shopping, emphasizing the purchase of green, healthy and high-quality products online. Assuming that driving to shop, the carbon dioxide produced by gasoline consumption per kilometer is about 160 grams. For a transaction, how many kilometers do you have to travel and how much carbon dioxide do you produce? The carbon dioxide produced by an online shopping is only about 0.2 grams; green online shopping means one-stop delivery from the production line to your home, minimizing environmental pollution.

Experts say that everyone has a responsibility to create a haze-free world, and green online shopping is also a way to fulfill one’s responsibility (now the online shoppers have a reason to buy things on Singles’ Day).

In addition, emission reduction alone is not enough. To fundamentally solve the problem, we need to plant more trees. FOTILE also planted 10,000 trees for consumers who purchased FOTILE products online during the Double 11 period (this is good news for otakus, you can plant trees without going out, just click the mouse), and will invite all friends to participate in the "10,000 people, one tree" green signature campaign, and realize it through 3D printing technology, so as to attract more people to pay attention to green online shopping and call on everyone to contribute to environmental protection.

How about it? During APEC, did you do something that is more convenient and more environmentally friendly?

If you want to keep the blue, click the mouse frequently to shop; if you want the blue to stay forever, have fewer children and plant more trees!
