写作大赛｜全球气候变化青年领袖写作大赛距离投稿截止仅剩2天！作品有机会展示在耶鲁平台 Climate Change 2024

在你所处的社区和环境中，你观察到了哪个自然气候解决方案？（或者在2024全球气候变化青年领袖项目中，你了解到哪个与个人背景和周边环境相关的解决方案？）在当地实施这一方案会对全球产生怎样的影响？

请以上述为题目，创作一篇基于事实的英文文章。提交的文章字数应在800字之内（摘要、标注、引用字数不算在内）。请注意，篇幅的长度不等同于质量。若能在500字内清晰有效地表达，胜过冗长的800字。提交的作品必须准确注明资料来源和参考文献，并使用规范的引用格式（APA、MLA、Chicago、Harvard等格式）。提交的作品必须披露生成式人工智能工具的使用情况，参赛选手应自行甄别该等工具所生成内容的合法、合规性并对其负责。

“What is a natural climate solution that you've noticed in your own personal context? (Or one you've known about during this speaker series that is potentially relevant to your personal context and environment.) How might implementation of this solution at the local level have an impact on the global level?”

Submit an essay on the above topic. Each submission should be limited to no more than 800 words in English (excl. abstract, bibliography, and footnotes). Note that longer does not mean better. If you can communicate it effectively in 500 words, that’s better than 800 words. Submissions need to attribute ideas and sources accurately, whether in APA, MLA, Chicago, or Harvard referencing styles. The use of generative AI tools must be disclosed, and the participants shall be responsible for independently verifying the legality and compliance of the content generated by such tools.
