SUMMARY:

      In nowaday china there are more and more pollution problems in China.It is reported that ten big cities in China are being ranked among the top twenty cities such like Beijing,Shanghai,Guangzhou and Shanghai with the highest pollution index in the world.This means it is high time we did something to bring the situation under control.     Many factors are contributing to the deteriorating situation: industrial wastes pumped into the air,the lakes and rivers,a increasing number of automobiles rowing into the streets;the widespread use of plastic bags etc.China's modernization drive has been launched in the following conditions:The country has a large population base,it's per-capita average of natural resources is low,and it's economic development as well as scientific and technological level remain quite backward.This makes China became the smog society. That's why the pollution problem can be so serious.And recently the air pollution begin increasing so fast!In some big cities shrouded in smog, where thousands go about their daily lives wearing masks to fend off the toxic fumes.

     According to this situation,artists are finding inspiration in this air pollution.These artists began joining some programs and activities.And they want to the government to find some solutions to solve this problem.but this is useless.Officials hid behind high-tech, expensive air filters at home while glossing over the true extent of health risks outside.That's is unfair to the public people.But in 2010 Greenpeace staged a photography exhibition in Beijing called Hope and Pain: Exhibition of Water Pollution Along the Yangtze.It's made the world to see the environment problem in China.And all the artists said some problem  like this forces them to be creative.

COMMENTS:

      To my view,stiffer laws and regulations must be implemented to check pollution.Industries that release wastes without permission should be heavily fined.Cars should be equipped to minimize the exhaust they release into the air.And the use of plastic  bags and disposable meal boxes should be sense of environmental

consciousness into people's mind.If  everybody words toward a common goal of making the environment better,we can create a cleaner and lovelier word for us and for the next generation!
