我为什么想参加雷励云南青少年营？
我最喜欢生物和个体与社会（Individuals ＆ Societies）这两门课程，学习过程中，我们每年都会思考人类社会对生物与环境的影响。很遗憾，我们得到的结果并不那么乐观。随着人类的发展，随着我们一步一步地扩张，我们摧毁了无数种动物的家，严重破坏了地球的生态系统。我们燃烧石油、砍伐森林，我们的所作所为引发了气候变化、水土流失、空气污染和水源污染。如今，我们自身受到了负面影响，地球上的各种生物也在为我们的行为付出代价。
在搜索引擎中输入“污染”二字，就会出现太多污染事件。我们会看到五花八门的各种污染，既可以按“空气污染”、“海洋污染”、“土壤污染”分类，甚至还能专门按照人类活动分为工业环境污染、城市环境污染、农业环境污染，等等。
2021年8月，西双版纳的一群亚洲象一反常态地向北迁徙，甚至一路走到了昆明，跟以往的生活规律完全不一样。专家推测有两个可能的原因：大象生存环境变化和地球磁场变化。在生存环境方面，版纳原本充裕的芭蕉树和雨林被人类用于种橡胶树、茶叶和咖啡豆，大象的食物和活动空间急剧萎缩，它们只好外出找吃的。另一方面，地球就像一个巨大的磁铁，大象等动物靠地球磁场辨别方向；近些年，气候持续恶化对大气层造成了巨大影响，太阳辐射对地磁场的影响也因此不时紊乱，而这也就扰乱了大象辨别方向的能力，令它们错误地一路向北。
大象不是一种低调的生物，它们体型庞大且不怕人类。它们一路走来，踩踏了许多庄稼和窝棚，堵住了马路，给云南造成了不少经济损失，而这一切的源头都是我们人类自己。
人类活动造成森林面积持续减少，森林吸附二氧化碳的能力持续下降，化石燃料燃烧又不断向空气中排放二氧化碳，二氧化钛浓度上升造成全球气候变暖，全球气候变暖反过来对人类生活带来巨大的负面影响。
我常常想，我有没有可能做点什么去改变这个局面呢？
前阵子从爸爸那里听说了致力于在云南热带雨林促进环保的雷励云南青少年营，我一下子就被吸引住了，想通过参加雷励这个暑假在云南的青少年营活动为挽救地球上的自然环境做出一点贡献。
Why I joined the Yunnan Raleigh Youth Camp
At school， two of my favorite subjects are Biology and Individuals ＆ Societies （Social Studies）， and a core topic we always investigate is the impact of human society on the natural environment around us. Unfortunately， the conclusion is that humans are quite detrimental to the earth. As human society expands， we have and are continuing to ruin countless habitats and food chains， and this all stems us causing deforestation and the burning of fossil fuels. The damage we‘ve done to our planet ー climate change，depletion of resources， air and water pollution， etc. ー is quickly catching up to us， and not only are we beginning to feel the impact， innocent animals and plants are being roped into our dilemma as well.
On August， 2021， Chinese news reported that a herd of Asian elephants had begun migrating North from their natural habitat in Xishuangbanna， Yunnan，completing straying from all their previous migration trails. Scientists addressed this mysterious change with two possible reasons:
1. The change in the habitat of the elephants
2. A change in the magnetic field of Earth.
For the former， professionals explain that as humans began deforesting the elephants‘ habitat to cultivate plants that produce more value， such as rubber trees， tea trees， and coffee trees， the elephants‘ habitat and access to resources shrank dramatically， forcing them to leave in order to seek more space and food. As for the latter reason， it was theorized that climate change was the cause. The earth is like a giant magnet， its North and South poles creating a magnetic field across it， holding it together.
Elephants ー as well as other animals with migration instincts ー rely on the magnetic field to navigate their migration trails. Global warming messes with the atmosphere， which in turn disarrays the activity of solar radiation and the earth‘s magnetic field. This confused the elephants‘ ability to navigate correctly， causing them to travel in the wrong direction.
Because of the massive size of elephants， they are quite heavy and clumsy. Going the wrong way led them to human villages and fields， causing the trampling of crops and buildings， as well as the blocking of some roads. Yunnan had to compensate for all the damages， yet when we think back on what caused this situation， the answer lies in ourselves.
Human activity is what caused deforestation， which caused the lessening population of trees able to absorb carbon dioxide， and with the continual growth in gas emissions， this is causing global warming， which is good for neither humans nor animals.
I often wonder， how could I make a difference to our world？ The answer came to me a few months ago: start little， aim big. At that time， I was brainstorming meaningful projects I could spend time on， and my dad suggested Raleigh‘s Youth Camp in Yunnan during summer holidays. After describing the camp to me， I was immediately interested， and felt like it was a purposeful and fun way to try to help revert the damage we‘ve done to our planet.
我为什么需要您的捐助？
雷励云南的青少年营以环境保护为中心。我将在2023年的暑假与一群志同道合的少年一同参与雷励中国组织的公益环保活动，在云南西双版纳亲手种植热带雨林原生树种，为修复当地的自然生态尽一份力。我们会亲身参与环境保护类工程，做出自己的贡献。为此，我需要获得您的资助用于此次公益行程。而您通过捐款，也在帮助我们带来改变，让人类在大自然的眼中不只带来破坏，也可以代表着救赎。
每位营员需为本次雷励少年营共筹集 9800 元，其中 1800 元需由队员自己筹集。所有筹集到的款项，将用于项目整体运作、传播与招募及行政运营开支，其中：
• 80% 将用于项目的运作（考察评估工具购置、交通、通讯、义工和队员培训、安全保障）
• 10%将用于项目的推广（与政府部门及各机构的联络、城市小组的支持接洽、网站维护、渠道推广）
• 10% 将用于机构的运营（整体运营开销，包括行政、机构财务、人力资源等）
而超出队员筹款目标的超额部分费用归“联劝（雷励）专项基金”账户，将全部用于支持雷励中国的运作与发展。
Why your help is crucial
The Yunnan Raleigh Youth Camp centers aroun environmental protection. This summer， I will be attending in environmental protection activities organized by Raleigh China with a group of similarly goalーoriented youths. We will be cultivating native tropical tree species in Xishuangbanna， Yunnan， and try our hardest to restore the natural local ecology. To attend this camp and achieve this outcome， it is crucial for me to acquire your donation. Through your generous contribution， you are not only aiding me， but also taking part in human society‘s attempt to redeem ourselves in the eyes of nature.
For the camp， each participant is required to raise a total of 9，800 yuan， of which 1，800 yuan must be raised by ourselves. All the funds raised will be used for the overall operation， dissemination， recruitment， and administrating operative expenses of this project， of which:
• 80% will be used for the operation of the project （purchase of investigation and evaluation equipment， transportation， communication， the training of volunteers and team members， safety and security）
• 10% will be used for the promotion of the project （liaison with government departments and agencies， support contact of city groups， website maintenance， channel promotion）
• 10% will be used for the operations of Raleigh China （overall operating expenses including administration， the organization‘s finances， human resources， etc.）
The donations that go beyond the fundraising target of the team members will be invested into the account of “Lianquan （Raleigh） Special Fund“， which will be used to support the operation and development of Raleigh China.
