The book explores China's environmental crisis, highlighting the paradox of its rapid economic growth amid severe ecological degradation. Despite leading in renewable energy production, the country continues to expand coal-fired power plants, resulting in significant pollution of water sources and farmland. It examines the reasons behind the government's prioritization of growth over environmental sustainability and questions the effectiveness of its authoritarian regime in addressing industrial pollution, presenting a critical analysis of China's unique challenges compared to other capitalist nations.
