    Looking back at myself while listening to the lecture, I realized that the environmental problem was serious, but I don't think I've really thought about what to do to protect the environment. As the speaker said, I thought I should look into the environmental policies implemented by the government to solve environmental pollution and pay attention to the government to make environmental policies more priority. It also vowed to consume more of its eco-friendly products to help companies pursue more environmentally friendly products or methods.
