«Greenland glaciers fracture, the accelerated melting of Arctic ice, the
Maldives islands disappearing ..., these far away matters have not touched
us yet. A rainstorm can change the boundless avenues, a hurricane can
uproot and remove the trees of the streets, thunder can make the roofs
collapse, all these phenomenon constantly remind us that the cities
where we are leaving are very fragile when facing weather disasters. As
a result, environmental protection is no longer just a question of feeding
people, and plunder the natural resources of the whole world at the style
of the no-mercy old colonial powers. China as developing country is
facing a serious water resource problem, this late and desperate effort
make us recall of the old proverb:” fixing the fence when the sheep is
already lost”- better late that never.
