On January, 2013, the public started a campaign called Clean Your Plate. This campaign aims to call on people to save food instead of wasting anything on the plates. The main theme of this activity is do not waste any food, starting with me. This campaign was first started from Sina weibo. Just a few days, tens of thousands people in China have joined in this meaningful activity. 

在2013年1月初,公眾中組織了一場名為“光盤行動”的活動。這場行動的目的是為了號召人們節約糧食而不是浪費食品。這場活動的主題是“節約糧食,從我做起”。它最初起源于微博,數天以后,成千上萬的人開始加入到這場極有意義的活動中去。
In my humble opinion, everybody should join in this campaign. As we all know, the Chinese traditional virtue is to be thrifty even we are live in a better life. According to the latest survey, more than 50 million tons of food is being dumped in China every year. This wasted food can feed about 200 million people for a year. The old generation usually appreciates the leftover, if there is any food in the plate, they will eat them up; while the younger generation will dump the leftovers into the dustbin, they rather spend the money on other food instead of eating leftovers. I think such behavior is not only waste of food and money, but also broadcast the wrong idea that wasting food is acceptable. People should come to realize the importance of saving food. The governments should also take measures to reduce food wastage and encourage people to eat at home. What’s more, people should put an end to the expensive feasts and banquets. 
在我看來,每個人都應該加入到這場運動中去。我們都知道,節約是中華名族的傳統美德,即便是現在我們的生活已經好了很多。就最新的調查結果:每年中國都要倒掉超過五千萬頓的糧食,這些糧食能供兩億人吃一整年。年老的一輩或許不會傾倒剩飯剩菜,他們通常會把盤子里面的食物吃完;而年輕人則把剩下的食物倒進垃圾桶里面,他們寧愿花錢買新的食品也不愿意吃剩菜。我認為這一舉動不僅浪費食物和金錢,也傳播了一種“浪費糧食是可以接受”的錯誤思想。國家政府應當采取措施減少食物浪費,鼓勵人們在家中吃飯。更重要的是,人們應當禁止奢華的晚宴和聚會。
I think this campaign should be moving on. Saving food for our offspring is everybody’s responsibility. Even if you’re a wealthy man, you still need to eat up the food on your plate. Waste is not a good habit. 
我認為這項活動應該繼續展開下去。為了我們的下一代去節約糧食,是每個人的責任。即使你是個富有的人,你也應當把盤子內的食物吃完。浪費食物不是一個好習慣。
