Putting our ecosystem in great peril is certainly not a part of Chinese culture that I know.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The Chinese culture belongs not only to the Chinese but also to the whole world.
Frankly, the only thing China has in easy abundance is people and dirty coal. Neither is the asset they're made out to be.
Environmental disaster is the gravest threat to China's continued development. That's according to me, but it is not some wacko view.
The Chinese have figured out that they have a giant environmental problem. Folks in Beijing, some days, literally can't breathe. Over a million Chinese die prematurely every year because of air pollution.
You have to be willing to totally immerse yourself in China in order to have in-depth exposure to China.
A lot of Chinese don't understand why people in the West are critical of China.
What has marked Chinese society is its level of cruelty, not just revolutions and wars. We ought to reject it totally, otherwise in another upheaval there will be further cruelty.
Chinese culture has a lot of virtues that are tremendously valuable to not only us as Asian-Americans, but also the world in general.
I think because of their terrible past, particularly this century, the Chinese have come to accept cruelty more than many other people, which is something I feel very unhappy about.
There's no longer any surprise in noting that China has grave environmental problems.
