I'm more than delighted to receive your letter. I had learnt that you are concerned about the smog which frequently strike some cities and areas of China. Thank for your concern. I'm also very worried about so terrible weather because it has brought much inconvenience or rather harmful to people's health such as traffic jams, road accidents, bad coughs and even lung cancers.
It is known to all, good environment comes from careful protection. So we should do what we can protect it. I believe the small step can make a difference. Try to drive less and choose air-friendly products. Only when all of us have the environmental awareness can they have a blue sky.
Looking forward to hearing from you and sharing with your good ideas. Yours,
Li Hua
