Hi, the 19th Cultural Season is coming to an end.
After more than two months of green journey, does it feel worthwhile?
This is my agreement with you to go hand in hand to the green waters and green mountains.
Chase the green and walk towards the beauty. Focusing on the theme of "Building a Modernization of Harmonious Coexistence between Man and Nature", from the beginning of the golden autumn of 2023 to the official conclusion on December 21, with 15 offline activities and 4 online activities in full swing, the 19th Capital University Environment and Culture Season came to a successful conclusion, leaving unforgettable youth memories for the college students of the capital universities.
We encourage college students to independently carry out diversified environmental protection practice activities, and students continue to develop and innovate in the theme planning, organization and implementation of activities, and event publicity, so that the cultural season presents the spirit of 'new vitality, new fashion, and new practice'. Talking about the harvest of the 2023 cultural season, the person in charge of the Beijing Ecological and Environmental Protection Publicity Center said at the closing ceremony.
Looking back on the past two months, along the five directions of "popular science, practice, speculation, art, and footprints", the song of ecological and environmental protection of college students in the capital was sung in the land of Beijing.
The 19th Capital University Environmental Culture Season, sponsored by the Beijing Ecological and Environmental Protection Publicity Center and the Beijing Student Federation, has carried out 19 environmental protection practice activities in the past two months since its launch on October 25. More than 60 clubs and more than 70,000 college students from nearly 50 colleges and universities, including Tsinghua University, Minzu University, China University of Petroleum (Beijing), North China University of Technology, School of International Relations, Capital Medical University, Beijing University of Chemical Technology, etc., participated in it to jointly help the ecological construction of beautiful Beijing.
Speculative sublimation practice: the feast of debate is wonderful.
The environmental debate competition is one of the highlights of the cultural season in the past years. This year, debate teams from 31 universities gathered at North China University of Technology to bring 31 ideological confrontations around hot issues of the ecological environment such as excessive packaging, the development of new energy vehicles, and the practice of low-carbon life. After many rounds of verbal debates and-for-tat confrontations, the debate team of Communication University of China and the debate team of China University of Political Science and Law stood out among many universities and advanced to the finals.
At the finals, the debaters of both sides launched the "ultimate" contest around the topic of "the harmonious coexistence of man and nature depends more on policy promotion or public awareness of environmental protection".
The power of policy lies in its ability to enforce environmental protection and ensure that every action is backed by the law. "The positive argument is sonorous and powerful. "Consciousness change is the precursor to social behaviour change, and substantial progress in environmental protection begins with people's hearts. "The opposition side is also worthy of the statement. In the end, the debate team of Communication University of China won the championship of this year's environmental protection theme debate competition.
The debate competition is one of the longest-lasting and most participating activities in the cultural season, and it can best show students' thinking on environmental hot issues. Each year, the debate finals are held in conjunction with the closing ceremony of the cultural season, focusing on the environmental wisdom and youthful vitality of university students. The person in charge of the event introduced.
The collision of friendship and inspiration: gathering the power of young people to protect the environment.
Go to the bright future of lucid waters and lush mountains together. In the hearts of every student who participates in the cultural season activities, this belief is upheld.
I really experienced the like-minded friends around me putting environmental protection ingenuity into practice, and the unique form of the event opened my eyes, and I also learned a lot of skills about event planning and organization. At the closing ceremony, Liu Lei, a student from the School of International Relations, shared his feelings as the chairman of the executive committee of this year.
It is reported that the number of activities in this cultural season is the largest in the history and the largest number of offline activities in the year. At the same time, the organizers have made great efforts in the linkage of multiple schools, and the activities have highlighted the cross-school, cross-professional and cross-field linkage, encouraging students to go out of the campus and increasing the interconnection of environmental protection activities between universities.

The environmental protection salon organized more than 100 college students from 25 colleges and universities to participate, invited professional celebrities, set exchange topics from multiple angles, and organized the venue from the beginning of paper cups, and strived to become a "zero waste venue". "Whether it is from broadening our horizons, learning new knowledge, or from the organization, coordination, and publicity of the activities, we have learned a lot from these two activities, and we are very inspired. Many students who participated in the debate tournament and the environmental protection salon at the same time said.
In the process of diversified exchanges and participation, students felt different campus environmental protection cultures, learned the experience of excellent club organization activities, made ecological environmental protection a hot spot for college students, and further cultivated the green ecological culture of colleges and universities.
