A sentence I saw yesterday

In my personal opinion, for India, environmental protection might be an instinct inherent in their culture, unrelated to the qualities of modern people Westerners aren’t necessarily that much better than us, are they? They started polluting the environment on a large scale just 100 years earlier than we did. It’s certainly true that our environmental awareness is not good enough and needs improvement, and this will take a long time.

Hehe, it’s said that those who know how to spend money are often good at making money as well. I think the Chinese will be able to damage the environment one day, but they will also learn how to protect it;P

Perhaps societal development has to go through a phase of pollution first and then cleanup. To be honest, I think China’s chemical industry is still at a relatively low level. In Japan, Europe, and the United States, they send us products that cause severe pollution so that they can protect their own environment. There’s no other choice; in order to have enough food, we have to sacrifice the environment. It’s really unfair to future generations!

It is an undeniable fact that to restore a damaged environment, one must pay costs several times higher than those required to prevent pollution in the first place. Why can’t we learn from others’ experiences and lessons to be smarter in what we do? It seems that others came this way, and there’s nothing to criticize about me doing the same. In fact, it is our descendants who end up paying the price for our actions; it’s uncertain how they will judge their ancestors in the future.

What does it mean to draw on something? Haven’t you seen those archaeologists digging all day long? If we really keep all the treasures as treasures for future generations, then why would they dig them up? If they don’t dig it, does that mean it’s not a treasure? They are also legitimately using taxpayers’ money to carry out these excavations. :Lol, what is the chemical industry? Isn’t it just about dealing with oil? Then why drill for oil if you love your descendants? Can’t you leave it all to them? Is it noble to turn land into mines everywhere and put the engines that cause air pollution in cars? :D ;P I’m sorry! SORRY! I’m being too harsh. Please don’t take it personally, Taibai, but I still think we won’t live to see the future; future generations will be those who have to deal with those issues. If the Earth is indeed destroyed, it will be a natural phenomenon. After all, hasn’t the Earth gone through several major changes before humans appeared? And as the original poster mentioned, take India for example – we all know that Indians don’t lead as comfortable a life as we Chinese do, right? If environmental protection results in us returning to a less comfortable way of life, I would rather not engage in environmental protection. :lol

How much do we really know about India? It seems that people’s impression of India is one of poverty, and there is a deep-seated disdain for India; more attention is given to Europe and the United States. In fact, India outperforms us in many aspects, such as education and environmental protection, as mentioned earlier. Why can’t McDonald’s survive in India? Moreover, India still occupies part of our territory. We should think more and take action, rather than just talking big. When it comes to environmental protection, we should reflect on what we actually do in our daily lives and whether our actions are environmentally friendly. Talking about principles without taking any action oneself, as if it has nothing to do with one’s own life, and acting as a hypocrite when it comes to environmental protection, is meaningless.

India will always be a strong competitor to China in the future, and they should learn from each other*

Hehe, China’s leadership hardly has this concept at all

China’s current strategy is to focus on economic development above all else

Environmental protection means protecting things in a continuous cycle; the damage has already been severe. Didn’t our leaders say, “Prevention is key”? Now we’re only trying to fix things after the damage has been done.

When economic interests are at risk, people usually consider ways to increase their gains. However, the costs associated with environmental protection are much lower compared to bribing those involved, and the problem of bribery itself cannot be effectively resolved

Environmental protection is a costly industry; it’s not that one should avoid it, but real resources and technology are indeed necessary. We’ve never been to India, so we don’t know what it’s like there. We only know about some serious chemical pollution incident – a pesticide factory in India leaked toxic substances, resulting in many deaths; but that was in the last century. It is important to protect the environment, but care must also be taken as to the methods used; it cannot be the case that protecting the environment means stopping development. The ancient Chinese emphasized the unity of man and nature; it wasn’t that their concepts were backward, but rather that people nowadays are too eager for quick results, which leads to destruction rather than preservation.

Environmental protection should start with self-requirements.

Many developed countries also learned their lessons first before paying attention to environmental protection; in general, our country still gives priority to economic interests, with environmental protection coming in second place.

The economy comes first; it’s the current national policy, there’s nothing that can be done about it.

Sometimes I think religion is actually a good thing – it provides people with a common belief system, and having certain rules to follow together isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Think about India; it must be easier to govern there than in China

Developed countries have also gone through their own stages of development, and their environmental pollution at that time was not much better than ours. I say this not to suggest that we should not protect the environment; as the economy develops, we will become more conscious and better equipped to safeguard it!!
