yo yan Yoan是来自台北的演员，对户外充满热情。“我几乎喜欢每一次户外活动 - 努力，慢跑，远足 - 他的自然确实使我充满活力。”他认为，他作为公众人物的责任，以树立榜样并影响他人为环境做好有益的责任。“即使是小动作也可以做出巨大的改变。我的目标不仅是产生积极的影响，而且鼓励其他人支持地球母亲。”

作为榜样，Yo通过他的“生日项目”等作品提高了对环境和可持续问题的认识。生日项目是一种包装在完全可回收和可生物降解的容器中的桌面工厂。 The plant is given to fans as a reminder to always protect the environment.

As a hero for nature, Yo literally “walks the talk.” He’s worked with Timberland and Japanese NGO, Green Network, to plant trees in China’s Horqin Desert to fight deforestation, prevent sandstorms and improve air quality across eastern Asia. This once verdant grassland in Inner Mongolia has become a sandy desert. Green Network’s vision is to restore it back to grassland by working with the local community and influencers like Yo who lead by example.

Yo hopes to see new people get involved—those who have never done anything for the environment before. He believes once a person gets started, they become influencers themselves.

“We don’t need to have superpowers to do something, we just need to get started. Begin with your daily life. What you choose to buy or eat helps determine the fate of the future. Simplify your life. Buy less. Waste less. Commute by bicycle. Support those planting trees and helping the environment. Then you can become a hero for nature.”
