During the 5 kilometers walking, they not only got the right scientific exercising methods, but also react positively to this year World Environment Day's theme. Moreover, the participants took the environmental friendly bags, bottles and handkerchiefs, instead of disposable paper cup and tissues. Many citizens who used to drive to work attended this event as well.
