FORVIA Green IT Classroom Inspiring Tomorrow Launched in Chongqing
As the new semester begins, Netspring team arrived in Chongqing again with the generous support of FORVIA to upgrade the computer classroom into FORVIA "Inspiring Tomorrow" Green IT Classroom, which significantly improves the learning environment for students. To celebrate the Tree Planting Day, School and Netspring also organized local students to participate in green public welfare activities. On this spring day, we sow with our heart and care with love, and the seeds of green hope take root in the hearts of students.
The thoroughly upgraded computers have become a source of wisdom for students to search environmental protection knowledge. Low-carbon experts from FORVIA prepared interesting knowledge cards for the students. The students were attentively learning the new knowledge, understanding the importance of energy conservation and emission reduction. They were greatly simulated with enthusiasm for environmental protection. Netspring team also prepared knowledge about planting for the students. The students were earnestly learning the secrets of plant growth, to feel the close connection with the Nature through navigating on internet and hands-on practice.
During the practical session, students themselves prepared soil, transplanted plants, and carefully took care the growth of each green plant. In addition to succulents and potted cans, the students also planted seed pencils with basswood shafts and graphite cores, they eagerly expected the future growth for those newly planted ones. These tiny seeds are not only a part of the green planting activity, but also bearers of the green dreams in the deep hearts of the students. After the activity, the students moved the planted plants to the newly established plant corner, and some students also made cards with the low-carbon knowledge they had learned to spread to more people.
Students also actively participated in the painting activity with the theme of environmental protection and low-carbon living. With colored pens and paintings, they expressed their love and protection to the natural environment. Blue skies, white clouds, green mountains, and clean waters, all the beautiful drawingsdeeply described the insightful understanding for green living and commitment to environmental protection from the students.
Herewith, we sincerely want to express the gratitude to FORVIA for the long-term strong support over the past years. Through this activity, students have been able to feel the power of environmental protection and witness the germination and growth of their green dreams in this springtime. We also hope this activity can bring more warmth and hope into our Earth home.
"During this activity, I learned that there are extremely precious finless porpoises in the Yangtze River. If we do not properly dispose of electronic waste, it may cause water pollution and threaten their living environment. Protecting the environment should be everyone's responsibility. Only when everyone takes action, we can jointly safeguard the beauty of the Earth."

I am deeply grateful to FORVIA and Netspring team for bringing valuable educational resources and learning opportunities to our students, which has also enhanced their awareness of environmental protection. I look forward to them fulfilling their responsibilities as citizens of the Earth in the future."
