Yes, I reckon that’s about right. But after traveling through parts of China where industry is king and nature is viewed as an alien force to be conquered and exploited, I think some regulation and preservation is warranted. All things in moderation, you know?
Communists, whether in China or in these United States, know nothing of moderation. Their goal is absolute State control of EVERYTHING.

Actually, China was primarily deforested by the construction of the Forbidden City and the Great Fleet and never recovered. However, there is now a reforestation program underway, meager though it my be. But, to your point, virtually all its major rivers and estuaries are polluted to the point of being dead. China indeed has huge environmental problems for sure.
