such bad terms as they are now. As society develops, man’s
transformation of nature has severely polluted his living environment.

floods, droughts and sandstorms. The discharge of chemical pollutants

has resulted in the shortage of irreplaceable natural resources such as coal

more trees, taking care of wildlife, recing instrial wastes, using
renewable energy, and imposing heavy fines on
environmentally-unfriendly activities, so as to preserve the environment
for future generations.
