About Us
Our Mission
Because of the limited amount of resources on Earth, it is important to conserve our current supply or to maximize use so that our natural resources will be available for future generations. For example, energy conservation is important because consumption of nonrenewable sources impacts the environment. Specifically, our use of fossil fuels contributes to air and water pollution. As citizens of the world, we all share the responsibility of conserving our limited resources and this site aims to raise the awareness and educate people about conservation in the world today.
Our Team
Our team comprises of six students, four from Beijing, China, and two from Singapore. We came together to participate in the annual ThinkQuest Competition. Our Primary Coach is Ms Qianwen from China.

I am a female with lots of personality. And this fact can be proven by my very unique name, Dongfang! The meaning of my name and my personality is very similar, like the sun which rises slowly in the East, full of vitality, hope and vigour. I have experienced 17 wonderful springs, summers, autumns and winters. I look back at my childhood to sadness, bitterness and of course, lots of joy. I am very happy to be able to take part in this competition. Allow me to use my enthusiasm to bring you a whole new different vision and feeling!Hong
Hi, I'm Hong from Beijing, China. I can be both calm and bold when the time comes. My two-sided disposition has helped me deal with many problems that i encountered in the past and I am sure that it will help me much in the future. For this competition, I need both my intelligence and skills to help my team achieve greater heights. And by using my calm yet bold demeanor, I hope to help my team achieve great success.

I am a 17 year old boy and I am currently studying in Dunman High School, Singapore. I am an outgoing teenager with a keen interest in water sports. It is this passion in me that led me to initiate my school’s Sailing Club. ThinkQuest 2008 was introduced to me through school and to date, it has broadened my horizons considerably, especially where conservation is concerned. It has also given me a very unique opportunity to mingle, interact and work with students from other countries.

My name is Yuchong and I am 17 this year. I am an open, bright and optimistic person. I may not be small, but I maintain a childlike innocence, acting like a little kid at times. I am very happy to have the opportunity to participate in ThinkQuest so as to be able to contribute my expertise. I live in China's capital - Beijing. This is a city that fuses both ancient and modern elements. It has a glorious historical culture and modernized facilities and buildings. It will also host the Olympic Games this August. Here, I invite all of you to Beijing! Just like our topic, we are going to show the world a thrifty and environmentally safe Olympic Games!

Assistant Coach - Mr Soong Chee Gi
Good morning! I am a Computing teacher in Dunman High School, Singapore. I am greatly honored to be able to interact with a group of committed and enthusiastic students from China and Singapore.

It was their creative genius and openness to new ideas that made all this possible. I would like to thank Mr. Gi, who shared his expertise with the team that gave it the scholarly edge necessary for success. Thanks for visiting, and hope all of you enjoy our site.
