编者:2022年9月24日(星期六)上海宏润博源学校与“捡拾中国”环保组织共同合作,延续“世界清洁日”的环保活动,以“重拾自然”为主题开展捡拾活动。师生携手,以岑卜村为活动范围,用自己的努力让环境更整洁,让空气更清新。捡拾是洁净环境的行动,更是对环保理念的宣传,希望可以影响到更多的人。

Editor’s note: On Saturday, September 24, 2022, Shanghai Hongrun Boyuan School teamed up with "Pick Up China", an environmental organization, to carry on the "World Clean Day" environmental activities themed "Pick up nature". Teachers and students work hard together to make the environment tidier and the air fresher in Cenbu Village.

阳光挤过叶与叶的缝隙钻进车子里打在座椅上,车子慢悠悠地荡起了绿色的旋律。大家睡眼蒙眬地靠在座椅上,听着老师激情洋溢地介绍着这项公益活动,同学们的兴趣被一点点地激起。

The sunlight squeezed through the gaps between the leaves and cast itself on the bus seats, and a green melody was being played leisurely inside the bus. Everyone leaned sleepily on the chair, listening to the teacher introducing the pro bono activity to them. Gradually, they became more and more interested in it.

到了岺卜村,我们弯弯绕绕走过小土路,自然的魅力彻底将睡意赶跑,趣味性游戏挑起了大家的胜负欲。生活中的常用物降解的时间让我难免感叹,车间造物短短几分钟,降解它们居然要几十年、几百年……老师介绍说这里三面环水,种的最多的是水稻,但他们从来都不施肥。同学们纷纷猜测原因,老师摇头解释道:“水体富营养化而水稻刚好吸收这营养,所以长得很好”。此时,我们心里感叹着自然的神奇。

On arriving at the Cenpu village, we zigzaged through the narrow muddy paths, and we were completely woken up by the beautiful countryside. An interesting game provoked everyone's desire to win. We are amazed at the the time common objects in daily life take to degrade. It takes several minutes to manufacture a product in a workshop, but the same product will take decades or even hundreds of years to degrade. The teacher said that this village is surrounded by water in three directions, and the most widely planted crop is rice, but farmers never fertilize the crop. The students wondered about the reason why, and the teacher shook his head and explained: "It’s because of water eutrophication and rice just benefits from the nutrients in the water, so it grows very well." At this moment, we were impressed by the magic of nature.

用四米的绳子圈出一平方米的地,五个人围着仔细观察着,“这株草是紫色的”、“这全是蚂蚁!”、“这树叫楝树……”人与自然的距离被慢慢地拉近。三十秒撕碎一张报纸再换组拼起碎屑,不免让大家都埋怨着前一组的“暴行”。像是印证了蝴蝶效应,一件小事会给未来造成巨大的影响,看着一地纸屑,拼拼凑凑很久。最终,我们组选择摆烂,老师这时候出声“这张报纸即使被拼好但也永远不能复原,正如我们的大自然,被破坏了就不能再完全的回到原来……”

Five students circled a patch of ground with an area of one square meter using a rope of 4 meters in length, and then they gathered and observed carefully "This grass is purple", "these are all ants!" "The tree is called neem..." The gap between man and nature was gradually bridged. One group of students spent 30 seconds tearing up a piece of newspaper and then another group put together the debris, which inevitably made everyone complain about the "atrocities" of the first group. The butterfly effect seemed to be verified---a small incident may produce a great effect on the future. Piecing a pile of paper scraps together would take a long time. Finally, our group chose to leave the mess as it was, The teacher said at this time, "Even if we piece together the scraps of paper, this newspaper can never become what it was, just like our nature, once destroyed, it can never become what it used to be....."

来到“岑卜村的后花园”,草有气无力的聚在一起,这一块那一片,褐色的地皮暴露在空气里,零零散散堆着饮料瓶、塑料袋、广告牌,大片的垃圾刺痛了我的眼。分好组我们开始捡拾,不一会儿空地上便堆满了分好类的垃圾,很热、很累但没有人偷懒。

On arriving at "back yard of the Cengpu Village", we saw the grass clumped together here and there feebly, and the brown soil was exposed to the air, with piles of drink bottles, plastic bags, billboards, dumps of garbage scattered around, which stung my eyes. Divided into groups, we began our pickup. It was not long before we sorted out and piled up different types of garbage. It was very hot, and we were exhausted, but no one chose to loaf on the job.

太阳推着影子跑,手表指针指向两点半,活动也接近尾声。我们自豪的看着战利品,树林恢复了它原本的色彩,清风徐来叶片踩着枝头起舞,我们带走垃圾还给这片森林洁净。

At 2pm, our activity came to an end. We proudly looked at our “trophy”. The forest restored its original color, with breezes blowing and leaves dancing on the branches. We removed the garbage, and returned cleanness to this forest.

同学们对于这次捡拾活动都感触颇深,一起来看两位同学的感想吧!

陈同学(Steven Chen)

在本次活动中,我体会到了生命体的发展历程。在捡拾活动中我感悟到,我们平时看起来微不足道的一些小举动,会造成很严重的自然危害。通过自己在满是淤泥的烟囱管道内捡拾塑料瓶和干垃圾的体验让我体悟到环卫工人的工作压力有多大!这次参加捡拾活动对我而言真是太对了,希望以后能有更多的机会去参加“捡拾”活动,为大自然贡献自己的一份力量。

朱同学(Luca Zhu)

我们通过一些小游戏,学习到各种与环境相关的知识。而且还了解到环境是如何一步步地被我们人类破坏的,也知道了我们需要做些什么,才能够将被破坏的环境重新恢复。下午,我们前往树林进行捡拾。可以看到在郁郁葱葱的树林中遍地散落着一些垃圾:有塑料袋,报纸,烟头,尼龙绳等等。我们通过自己的双手,将这些垃圾捡起;当我再次回头看向这片森林时,地上的垃圾已经所剩无几,这让我感到由衷的欣喜。
