It is important that big Country with large growing population must attempt to be self-sufficient in food even though there is aspiration to improve the living standard of the population.

Fast industrialisation is good but food crops that are produced locally must not be depleted and instead rely more and more on import of food crops - that will grossly upset the supply of World food chain.

Environmental damage can be reversed. With depletion in land space that are used for agriculture, with more land space used for industrialisation, high-tech production of high yield food crops using smaller but vertical land area will become increasingly important.

Also by investing in high tech farming method, less farmers (many have moved to cities for work) will be required as high tech machinery can produced more crops per farmer.

Also environment touch on every aspect of human life, that is made up of :-
(1) Air quality - affect the air people breathe
(2) Soil quality - will come into contact with people's skin - causing skin problem.
(3) Water source - will affect drinking water to keep people alive.

All these in turn will impact whether food crops can grow, whether greenery like trees, plants, shrubs, grasses can survive; whether worms, good bacteria for soil, insects etc can live to help the soil fertile to ensure food crops and greenery can flourish.

When nature can grow naturally, human can survive and grow well.

When nature cannot survive, human cannot survive for too long too - because nature nourish human.
