ENVIRONMENTAL CRISIS AND WAYS TO SOLVE THE ISSUE
Discussion 2:
The onset of industrialization brought about a massive change not only on the global
economic platform but also impacted the environmental conditions and to be more precise
negatively affected the surrounding bringing about unpredictable climate changes and
unacceptable environmental crisis. For instance if considering the industrial developments of
China, the second-largest economy in the world its humongous consumption of fossil fuel has
led to severe human and environmental harm, polluting the soil, water, and overall degrading the
quality of human life(Hite and Seitz, 2016).
Developed nations do have the potential to bring in significant changes. The innovations
and experimentations require expert views, high financial and infrastructural support (Lynch
and Stretesky, 2013) which is easily available in a developed nation.
Thus in case of China the country has responded to the call of preserving the environment
with its praise worthy step of cutting down the consumption of fossil fuels by leaps and
bounds. Moreover the country has taken several steps to reinforce environmental laws that
would lead to high financial investments on clean energy creating up to 10 million green jobs
(Wamsler,Brink and Rivera,2013.) in the process. Countries like Australia, Brazil and Canada
have emphasized on limiting their harmful industrial emission, keeping a tight check on
negative practices like deforestation and boosting the practice of using renewable sources on
energy.
