Probably in Europe it sounds Chinese but Chai Jing is already well known in her country due to her latest documentary. This Chinese journalist has made a report strongly criticizing the environmental situation of the most polluting country in the world.
After her daughter was diagnosed with a benign tumor that she attributes to pollution, this environmental revolutionary has shocked the country with her documentary that is already trending topic. The large consumption of coal (the country’s main source of energy) or the threats that China suffers from the big oil companies when they are forced to improve the quality of fuel are the main points to be criticized.
The theme is paradoxical considering that Chinese government officials such as the new environmental protection minister have praised the documentary, which also criticized the government’s lack of power to enforce environmental protection laws. The truth is that the situation in China is extreme and should be a topic of global interest as it affects the whole world. Raising awareness of activities like this is absolutely necessary and beneficial.
