Student tells China’s gov’t to step up conservation awareness (Xinhua)

An overseas Chinese student has said at a meeting of prominent environment experts in Beijing that the Chinese government must do more to educate people living in remote and border areas about protecting plants and animals.

Remote and border areas in China were known for their biological diversity, but residents had little knowledge of biological protection, Le Yang, a graduate student at the Department of Landscape Architecture of the University of Wisconsin-Madison in the United States, said Thursday.
