Charmaine's Reflection on the dilemma

  In my opininon, i think that China is a developing country and that it is normal for China to compete to be the best. And we can see that China is developing very fast because it is one of the highest economy in the whole world. 

 China can produce multiple products because China itself is a really big country with a large amount of land and population. Thus, China is able to build many factories and have the manpower to work at the factories to manufacture the products. However, these products contribute a whole lot to the greenhouse gases which causes global warming as it pollutes the air. This causes major problems to our environment and causes health problem. Especially to people with respiratory problems.

 I think China should think of ways to reduce the amount of greenhouse gases that is emited into the air. Since China needs the factories to develop their county even more, maybe they can cut down on having their own private cars and use the public transport instead. And use natural energy, like solar power or windmills. And now that technology is so advanced, more of energy saving products have been produced. Such as the solar powered plane, electric car and etc. China can use these products to reduce the greenhouse gases emission. And China can also reinforce on recycling so that paper for example, can be reused so that less trees will be cut down for the production of paper. Trees help us to take in carbon dioxide. Which is one of the greenhouse gases. If the trees were to be cut down, their will be lesser trees to take in carbon dioxide for us and give out the oxygen we need to breathe and survive. So another way that China can reduce the greenhouse gases emission is to also help reinforce the idea of recycling to their people. Also China can educate their people on power saving so that energy is saved and this less fossil fuel is being used up. They can use power saving bulbs, switch off lights whenever not in use and Etc. These small acts can help a lot in reducing the greenhouse gases emission. 

 I feel that it is not wrong of China to be competitive because everyone wants to be the most well known country and be the coolest as compared to the rest but they should also try to reduce the amount of greenhouse gases that is released into the air so that they can take care of their own people's health since they are closest to the factories and thus will be affected the most then the rest of the world.
