China is known as the most populated country in the world. But did you also know it's the most polluted country in the world. For years China has been using up all of their resources for money and power. But what they don't understand is that they have been destroying their own enviornment.
I took an ecology class while I was still in high school, and I've learned alot about the enviornment and how important it is to keep our planet alive. One day, my class and I was watching a film about China and how they treat their enviornment. I couldn't believe how the economy operates there.
China carries the second largest amount of electronic waste in the world, farm soil is too polluted to plant any crops because the farms are to close to chemical plants, there's hardly an water safe enough to drink or bathe in, their rice supply is tainted by toxic metal, and there is at least 20% of forest life left in their country.
It's hard for people to breath in any oxygen because they always use coal to power almost everything because it's cheaper, and because of that pollution, it's caused many deaths. By lead poisoning, lukemia, lung cancer, cardiovascular disease and chronic disease. China is also causing the ozone layer increase due to it's pollution, and the smell of the polluted air is starting to reach other countries making it harder for people and animals to breath and make plants to grow.
What's even worse is that the Chinese government is more worried about their money instead of helping their homeland and people. The Chinese need to understand that they are putting themselves indanger because the don't care about their own enviornment. If we don't convince them to clean up their mess soon, the people of that country will die along everything else living there.
