Many actions have been taken to fight food waste, but one young man is making a big difference with technology.

Liu Jichen, 23,     1     student from Tsinghua University, has developed a WeChat mini-program    2     (call) “Clear Your Plate”. After a meal, users can open the mini-program and take a picture of     3     (they)empty plates. Once the image     4     (recognize) by the AI, students can collect points and use them to buy gifts or meals     5     children in poor areas.

Liu and his team, together with other     6    (organization), started the “Clear Your Plate" movement in November for the third year,     7     has swept over 1,017 universities across the country.

The one-month movement attracted almost 1.6 million people and     8     (reduce) food waste by 862 tons in total, The China Youth Daily reported.

Thanks to his creative actions on social issues, Liu was awarded(授奖) by the UN Office of the Secretary General's Envoy on Youth in September, 2020. “Through the movement, we hope to encourage everyone     9     (take) action against food waste and to offer Chinese     10     (wise) and solutions to global food challenges,” he said.

10 . For many kids, the Internet is at their fingertips. From computers to smart phones, a web of information is open to them. According to a new report from the Pew Research Center, about three out of four kids aged 12 to 13 connect the Internet using a mobile device from time to time. Many younger kids are online too.

Julian Zeitlinger, 9, from New Jersey, uses his computer to watch videos and play games. To keep him safe online, his parents monitor his web use and discuss Internet safety with him. “I ask my parents if something is wrong,” Julian says.

Mobile devices offer more ways than ever to share personal information. The information can be dangerous in the wrong hands. A study found that 62% of children aged 8 to 17 have had an unpleasant online experience.

Have you ever had to enter a parent’s e-mail address when signing up for a website? That safety net is there because of the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). The law says sits for kids under 13 cannot collect personal information, such as a phone number or full name, unless their parents agree.

This July, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) will update COPPA for the first time since the law was created in 1998 when there were no smart phones. “The nature of the way kids get online has changed,” FTC lawyer Phyllis Marcus said. When the changes take effect, COPPA will apply to mobile devices and newer forms of advertising. It will expand what falls under “personal information” to include videos, photographs and services that give user location.

COPPA doesn’t cover everything that can go wrong online. That’s why kids and parents need to know what to look out for and to stop and think before sharing information online. “There is a misunderstanding that if a site is following COPPA, it is totally safe,” says privacy expert Shai Samet. He runs kidSAFE, which checks whether a site meets kidSAFE standards and is safe. “It’s important that kids know how useful the Internet is but that it also can be dangerous if you are not careful.” he adds.
