Honorific judges, ladies and gentlemen,

   I am so glad that I can be here and make my speech today. The title of my speech is DO THE WORLD A FAVOR AT HOME.

    At the beginning of my speech, I want to ask everybody here a question, what would you do if I give you one dollar right now? Well, for the girls who don't care too much their weight, perhaps they are thinking about a chocolate bar, and for the boys, several hours of gaming on the Internet. But you know what, for some people, one dollar means three meals. And do you know how many people will go to bed without any food in their stomach if they do not receive one dollar today? One hundred million. And among them, 24,000 people will not be able to see the sunrise tomorrow.

   We are global citizens; can we just sit back and enjoy watching the sufferings die? No we can’t. We need to take some actions!

   Wait a minute, what actions? You are neither scientist nor politician and you are not wealthy, there is nothing I can do. I seriously doubt it. According to the US Department of Agriculture, up to one-fifth of America's food goes to waste each year, with an estimated 130 pounds of food per person ending up in landfills. The annual value of this lost food is estimated at around $31 billion. But the real story is that roughly 49 million people could have been fed by those lost resources. In china 3 billion kg of foods were wasted at the tables every year. The food wasted could feed 50 million people for one year.

   Here are the actions. Do not prepare too much food next time you arrange a party. Do not throw your leftovers out of the window just because they are not tasty enough. Do not show your wealth by ordering a lot of foods in restaurants and leave them exactly the same when they were brought to the tables. Do check your fridge once in a while before they go bad.

   Ladies and gentlemen, we do not have to be scientists or politicians or millionaires to perform our global citizenship. And you do not have to give up your chocolate bars and computer games. We can do the world a favour at home. If we can do it, I strongly believe one day one dollar can also mean a chocolate bar to the suffering people.
