Sending mobile short messages have become popular culture in China. On Saturday, Chinese youngsters were able to flex their thumb muscles at the 2006 Nokia SMS slogan contest in Beijing. The competition has its theme on the environment, and 10 children were awarded the title of "Environmental Pioneer".

This year's contest received over 200 thousand SMS from more than 20 provinces. One of the children said in his SMS that, he hoped in the future, paper could be made from fibers, while ink could be made from chocolate. That way, we can eat the newspaper after reading it. China's Association for the Promotion of Environment and Culture is one of the organizers of the event. They said the best way to protect the environment is to teach children to love the environment.
