Agh, I get angry just looking at the news. On the one hand they encourage you to buy a car, and on the other hand they call vigorously for stronger environmental awareness. Isn't that a self-contradiction? We've been talking about environmental protection for so many years, and we haven't had a bit of improvement. In fact, the situation gets more serious all the time!
现在环境污染的确是很严重不过政府也一直在进一步加强环境保护的力度啊最近又有家化工企业被关闭以便减少污染排放国家还投入大量财力发展污水处理和再循环系统解决水源短缺和水源污染问题还有各种加强绿化保护生态环境的措施也都开始启动这说明大家都越来越重视环境保护我觉得作为普通市民我们只要做好身边的小事也算为环境保护贡献了一份力量

Environmental pollution is definitely a serious problem these days. But the government has consistently done more to strengthen its protection of the environment. Recently, a lot of chemical companies were closed to reduce the release of pollution. The country has also put a lot of financial resources into developing water purification and recycling systems to solve the problems of water pollution and shortages. And then there's all kinds of ``greening," and measures to protect the ecological environment are getting started. That goes to show that everyone takes environmental protection more seriously all the time. I think that as common citizens, I think we just need to take care of our own business. You can count that as making a contribution to environmental protection.
我还是对环境保护的前景不乐观光做一些小事是远远不够的你看看现在到处都是土壤流失水源短缺空气污染如果我们还不提高警惕大概再过个几十年人人都得带着防毒面具和氧气瓶生活了这是多大的一出悲剧啊

I'm still not optimistic about the prospects for environmental protection. Just doing a few little things is not nearly enough. Everywhere you look are erosion, water shortages, and air pollution. If we don't start paying more attention, after a few more years, people will need masks and oxygen bottles to survive. What a huge tragedy.
