Environmental Protection Movies Recommendation

The movie is directed by Luc Jacquet depicting a group of Emperor Penguins in Antarctic with their journeys, courage, struggles, loves and formidable strengths. They are so firm and indomitable in Antarctic harsh environment that making them one of the excellent model of world species.

They know how to save energies. They not only adjust their body temperatures to adapt to the environment, but also congregate together for warm during atrocious cold; they are patient and smart, snow storm can't stop their journeys and starvation can't defeat their bodies; their model of breeding is different from other species, breeding jobs are carefully divided and proceeded despite the coldest season; they are sensitive and have the abilities of identifying voices, even chicks can identify their parents' cries; they are also loyal and tolerance to their spouses during the breeding period, they even don't care for their territories in the sake of their kids.

Like Morgan Freeman's aside in the English version of the movie, they maybe socially appear as human beings but look not like us. In our eyes, Emperor Penguins colony is so wonderful, their loves, friendships and considerations of each other are graceful and so amazing which leave us has nothing but envy.

Arctic Tale was directed by Sarah Robertson, the film display a mysterious and beautiful Arctic created by snow and ice.

Arctic is an icy kingdom where human beings seldom set feet in, but it also has its own dominating animals. Among them are the Pole Bears and Elephant Seals which bring live and vigor to the kingdom. Viewed by the third person, the movie depicts pole bear Seela and elephant seal Nanu's lives from kid growing up to adult, displaying a tranquil but wonderful Arctic. The images of the cold and clear Arctic can bring us away from the hot summer, but at the same time, the movie also remind us thinking about globe warming and environment protection.

Chinese tea culture

Chinese tea has a history of over 5,000 years, during which a series of unique tea culture have come into being, covering from tea plant cultivation and conservation, tea-leaf picking to processing and sampling tea. Tea-leaves are mainly produced in the southern area to the Yangtze River for mild climate and fertile ground there, such as the provinces of Zhejiang, Yunnan, Guizhou and Fujian. There produce an abundance of renowned tea varieties, e.g. Longjin, Oolong, Pu'er, Tieguangyin, and so on.

Tea culture is one of the common traits shared by all the 56 ethnic groups in China. Many Chinese people believe that a day is not perfect without a cup of tea. Either in the warm southern mountain area or on the frozen northern grassland, stuff like Kungfu tea, buttered tea and milk tea are all among the favorite drinks. Furthermore, both ancient and modern Chinese people tend to indulge in elaborating on poems, essays, dances and dramas on the tea. In fact, when it became popular during the Zhou Dynasty three thousand years ago, people had used for it as a medicine for indigestion. The effects have been tested, documented and proved by international symposium.

Tea culture is of much elegance. In the contemporary society, tea culture plays a role of enriching cultural and leisure life, promoting the development of tea-related economy and trade, and propelling culture exchange between nations.
