In the article, “China’s Environment in a Globalizing World,” Jing Liu and Jerrod

Diamond conducted some research and found some data to set out some background information

about China, and discuss the types of Chinese environmental impacts, their consequences for the

Chinese, reciprocal impacts of China and other countries, China's future prognosis, and some

recommendations. According to the research, many Chinese, including its leader, are aware of

these problems and had tried to tackle them. Some things have improved, but such efforts have

not matched the forces of environmental destruction, and have not prevented other indicators

from further deterioration. The authors offer some broader sets of recommendations. This article

let me know China’s environmental protection will affect not just China, but the entire world. I

could use it to talk about the importance of China’s environmental protection. Meanwhile, some

recommendations are very useful.
