Ms Yuting Zhou is an early-career environmental advisor working on industrial
wastewater pollution management, In her work, she’s learning about an important type of
environmental pollution, and finding ways to help companies manage water resources better.
When we asked Yuting how old she was when she got interested in environmental
problems, we were surprised by her response. “I must have been about six years old. I used to
watch an American TV series about an environmentalist Superhero named Captain Planet.
There is one serious pollution event somewhere in the world. The concern about
environmental issues deeply influenced Yuting. But how does one prepare to be a
“Superwoman”? For Yuting, it came down to a reflection on what she might be good at — in
her case, the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) subjects-and
making considered choices in her education.
She began to study environmental engineering, and found a passion for the subject.
“During my graduate studies.” I researched different kinds of health effects.
While she developed valuable skills that would help her in her career, she also learnt
more about herself and her role in the world. “I learnt that science requires a scientific proof
through repeated and sometimes long processes. Although I completed and published my
research in a top academic journal, I realized that I’m not fit for laboratory work. I needed
more interaction with people, and to solve real-life problems.”
Within three days of graduating, Yuting was on a plane heading to Kenya. She was
excited about working for the United Nations because there were people from various
industries and backgrounds gathering to improve the environment and create a more
sustainable (持续) future a lot like the setting of Caprain Planet which brought light
to her in the first place.

The Oxford Word of the Year 2022 winner may surprise you. The winning phrase was
“goblin mode ( 哥 布林 模)” a type of behavior often seen as lazy. People who are in
goblin mode tend to reject social expectations, such as usual gatherings.
This is not necessarily a bad thing, however. US language expert Ben Zimmer
commented that the lifestyle means that “people are looking at social norms in new ways”.
Many young people worldwide go “goblin mode” seeking to make peace with their true
selves. Without pretty covers like digital editing, we are not always the perfect image that we
tend to present to others. Staying true to ourselves, however, doesn’t mean that we must avoid
troubles. Bilibili, a leading video platform, announced that elegance was the bullet comment
() of the year. It refers to the graceful and stylish manners. And traditionally, the word is
more often used to describe people of higher social classes. But now, young people in China
are using the word to emphasize an ability to control and balance life for ordinary people.
From bravely facing troubles in life to sharing delightful moments and spreading joy,
elegance is no longer a privilege. Rather, it is our positive attitude to life-that we will stay
calm and strong no matter what life brings-that is most important.
Take pandemic as an example, it’s a topic that we cannot ignore. Three years into the
pandemic, we are gradually letting go of our fears about it. It will likely not end dramatically,
but rather result in coexistence between humans and the virus. Our life may never be the
same as before the pandemic, but it doesn’t have to be. Video chats, online meetings and
classes. We are closer than ever to connecting digitally with each other on a new level. It’s
time to face new opportunities and challenges in the year ahead. And remember: we have
made it through the pandemic — is there anything that we cannot overcome?
