The country’s population is entirely responsible for what it is doing to the environment. Outsiders are not to blame for the problem, except to the extent that great deal of the pollution results from production of goods for export. Lax laws, heavy industry, and governmental policies have created a nightmare unequaled in the history of man. That floating island of plastic in the middle of the Pacific Ocean can be traced to China. The man made greenhouse gases produced in China are the highest on Earth. The waterways are extremely polluted. No one can even speak out in protest due to the political climate.
