Features: To express these viewpoints more comprehensively and effectively, they need to be organized within a systematic framework, enabling readers to approach sustainable development issues from a more complete background. For this purpose, a concise introduction to the biosphere, global, and China's major environmental issues is essential. These materials are derived from existing research both domestically and internationally. The contribution of this book lies in organizing these materials into a structured outline, allowing readers and students to grasp the key points. The remaining chapters are supported by objective evidence to delve into the relationship between humans and nature. Regarding environmental issues, it is not enough to know what they are; it is more important to understand why. In other words, merely memorizing phrases and slogans is not sufficient to comprehend a concept; what matters more is grasping the stance, perspective, and methodology of the concept. Similarly, understanding environmental issues is not just about memorizing data and charts; what is crucial is mastering the stance, perspective, and methodology for recognizing environmental issues. Briefly, this book adopts a Chinese perspective, employs a historical view of Western civilization's expansion, and uses the method of examining whether the growth rate of the economy is in harmony with the rhythms of the ecosystem to understand environmental issues. The main purpose of this book is to form a distinctive green vision.
