Solving Our Environment Problems Comes at a Cost: Brotherhood

I hope you’ll check out the video link here, showing how truly awe-inspiring certain aspects of the Chinese people and its culture are. As another example, China is the world’s leader in investments in renewable energy. Unfortunately, it’s also the world’s leading polluter, and continues to build coal-fired power plants at an alarming rate.

As a global civilization, we either solve this problem, and eliminate coal as an energy resource from this planet, or we are tacitly condemning our children to untold levels of suffering.

Note the use of the phrase “global civilization” in the sentence above. The first step we must take is to bring down our arbitrary national boundaries when it comes to energy and the environment, and solve this problem as one collective people. All 7.3 billion of us breathe the same air.
