China is setting an example for the US - and the world - to follow. We should all take note. China has been able to manage the difficult task of reducing pollution without slowing down economic growth. What can the US take away from China’s unique experience? Although the world often pits the US against China, when it comes to saving the planet, any progress by any country in reducing emissions is good for everyone. China has presided over the fastest industrialization and the fastest cleanup in history - it is worth taking a closer look to see how we can do better.

Nell'agosto 2018 la quindicenne svedese Greta Thunberg decise di scioperare dalla scuola per richiamare l'attenzione sul mancato rispetto dell'Accordo di Parigi sul clima. Da allora ogni venerdì si mette davanti al Parlamento a Stoccolma, o in altre piazze del mondo, con un cartellone scritto da lei su cui si legge "Skolstrejk för Klimatet" (Sciopero dalla scuola per il clima). Quello slogan, quel gesto hanno ispirato migliaia di giovani e sono diventati un fenomeno globale.

Humans depend on soil for 95 percent of global food production, yet let it erode at unsustainable rates. In the United States, China, and India, vast tracts of farmland will be barren of topsoil within this century.
