Overseasidol.com — Young Chinese actor Zhang Linghe has showcased his intellectual side by publishing an opinion article titled “Action Makes Change Happen” in the international edition of People’s Daily.
In his writing, he explores China’s energy transition and encourages the public to adopt a low-carbon lifestyle.
The article combines Zhang’s academic background in electrical engineering with his hands-on experience from participating in a documentary project focused on energy and sustainability.
He reflects on an imagined version of himself in a “parallel world” as an energy engineer, which deepens his perspective on the topic.
During the documentary project, Zhang visited several cities in Jiangsu Province, including Yancheng, Suzhou, Changzhou, and Wuxi.
There, he observed various renewable energy initiatives such as wind farms, integrated solar-aquaculture systems, and pumped-storage hydropower stations.
These firsthand experiences allowed him to better understand China’s efforts toward achieving its carbon neutrality goals.
He emphasized that while large-scale infrastructure is crucial, individual actions also play an important role in driving meaningful change.
Zhang Linghe encouraged readers to start with simple daily habits, such as conserving energy and supporting environmentally friendly technologies, as part of a collective effort toward sustainability.
People’s Daily, where the article was published, is the official newspaper of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, with a global circulation reaching millions of readers.
