Issues and viewpoints

Smog is becoming an increasingly pressing issue for the Chinese people. The public will pay more attention to the issue as thousands of national legislators and political advisers converge on Beijing to attend the annual two sessions. Comments:

We must abolish the idea that tackling environmental pollution relies on government subsidies to factories to transform their equipment. Now that smog is such a serious problem and there is a great need of technologies to fight smog, tackling smog can be developed into an industry that has a big market and is a promising field for investment. We must coordinate the campaign to tackle smog with the country's economic development. Only when China successfully transforms and upgrades its economy can it clear up the smog.
