Indeed, “Blue Sky” has gone far away from us. The thing that needs our reflection is where our endeavor to improve the air quality for the past more that 10 years is located. The worst thing that happened for the past few days may implied the effect. A thick layer of toxic fog blanketing Beijing for days blotted out the sun and disrupted traffic as residents were warned to stay inside and avoid any strenuous activity to minimize their exposure to the hazardous fumes. As a result, the market for dust masks and air purifiers is booming in Beijing. But, are these things truly helpful? We make mistakes, and our offspring will pay the bill.
Of course, the strength of each person is little. But if every one of us makes each’s contribution, the ultimate effect cannot be overlooked. We cannot change the present situation instantly. But we can do what should we do from now on. Daily accumulation would make a lot. As far as I am concerned, I would make my daily life more “environmental friendly” at first. For example, I would resist to use the plastic bags when shopping; I would choose the public transport instead of driving my own car everyday; To choose more healthier cooking way is also a great idea.
No one would like to lose the basic right - breath fresh air. Believe me! Your little endeavor would work! Time will prove it!
