Winter is my favourite seasons. It is very cold and everyone had to wear thick warm clothes, but I always enjoy the winter here in Harbin.

During this season, we cannot see colorful flowers or green trees, but the land is quiet and beauty.
My friends and I love playing outside in winter. It is excited to have big snowball fights for us. They also make snowmen and use carrots for their noses, what look funny.
Harbin’s winter is such great that it attracts tourists from all over the country.

8 . Climate change is an ongoing and ever-present threat to the Earth and all living things upon it. Unchecked industrialism and the burning of fossil fuels have resulted in the creation of harmful greenhouse gases. Human greed has led to massive deforestation and clear-cutting of forests to make way for farmland. Pollution blocks our rivers, lakes, and oceans. The point of no return may be fast approaching.
After decades of harmful actions, many governments and businesses are now struggling to find ways to lessen some of their destructive effects and reach net-zero, which means not adding to the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. One of the ways they proposed was the extensive tree-planting. The UK government, for example, has set out its plan to plant 30,000 hectares of trees annually so as to absorb carbon dioxide.
However, according to Oxfam, a British charity devoted to helping people in poor countries, those plans never bore fruit. It issued clear and strong warnings against them-the area needed for a tree-planting project of this scale to successfully lower carbon emissions to net-zero is estimated at 1. 6 billion hectares, which is an area five times the size of India. That means the project would intrude (侵占) on the land presently needed to grow enough crops to feed the world’s expanding population.
Such a massive campaign of turning farmland into forest could give rise to a global interruption to agriculture, and cause food prices to rise by as much as 80% by 2050. In a world where millions of people are already going hungry, this could have disastrous results. By trying to save the planet, governments and businesses may cause many millions of people to die of starvation. This paradox (悖论) perfectly illustrates the phrase “damned if you do, and damned if you don’t. ”
