Sixty years ago Chinas Heilongjiang forest was home to millions of trees. But today a staggering 90% of the forest has been felled, making it one of the fastest rates of deforestation in human history.

Just because China wants to be as modernized as the West & have all of luxuries that the West now takes for granted is no reason for China to ignore the lessons the West has experienced & learned with respect to harming the environment Having the attitude "well you have it & so I can too" in this day & age of what we know on how not practicing environmentally safe practices can lead to run away collapse of local habitats is a crime against nature China cares about self preservation at any cost

Overpopulated China is like a plague on the Earth, eating away at her flank and polluting the air and water at an alarming rate

Mandate vasectomies. And, for religionists and anthropogenic global warming deniers and banksters and other financial terrorists: cut off their balls without anesthesia. Then torture them. Then kill them. That is the only way.

Oh yeah, well then you should take a trip to the Russian area and you will find out that most of the people there are Chinese and not Russian.

China is one of the largest consumers AND producers of wood products... So how exactly are they bringing back the trees?

Are you telling me that China doesn't have any nukes nor means to deliver the nukes? Most of the laborers now in that part of Russia are Chinese anyway. It is slowly being seceded over to the Chinese. Russia can't hold onto these empty regions any more.

Lol, Russia would make a nuclear wasteland out of China if that happens.

China could solve their problems by invading Russian Siberia and then it would have all the trees that it needs. The Russians have a declining population and don't need Siberia now. Asia should be for Asians not Europeans.

Sure, 2 kids each, while a thousand children starve to death every day and we take more than the earth can produce. That makes a lot of sense! Yes! We're stripping the Earth bare, it's not about money or optimizing resources. You can't optimize wasteland or eat dividends.

C'mon son.... we only need to stop spending money in wars and optimize our resourses. No reason why we can't have 2 kids each.
