Qi Haoran, a Junior 1 student, was quite busy over the past winter holiday and not just with homework. Qi, together with 10 other classmates made a volunteer group to call on people to join the Clean Your Plate Campaign (“光盘行动”).
  These students went to many restaurants and told people that saving food is important. “Excuse me, do you know that 950 million people around the world still don’t have enough food to eat? Please don’t waste(浪费) food.” They would say this kind of thing hundreds of times every day.
  The Clean Your Plate Campaign began on the Internet in January. It calls on people to reduce(减少) food waste.China in recent years had experienced(经历)serious problems with wasted food. CCTV reported in January that the food Chinese people waste every year is enough to feed 200 million people for a year.
    Chinese people are well-known for being hospitable (好客的). Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food.
    Luckily, the campaign has got a lot of support. In a restaurant in Xinjiang, the owner give the guests who have eaten up all that they ordered a sticker (贴花). People can enjoy a free meal when they have 10 stickers. More than 750 restaurants in Beijing have begun to offer smaller dishes and encourage their guests to take leftovers (剩饭剩菜) home.
    To reduce food waste is a big task, and it needs time. It’s important that everyone does a little, just like Qi. Did you finish your meals today?
