- Why do you think some people don't pay much attention to environmental problems?
- It could be because they don't really believe that the problems are serious. It's also difficult to actually see the impact sometiimes, I mean it's almost impossible to see air pollution in most places, you can't really feel climate change on a daily basis either.
There's a lot of evidence and statistics presented by scientists and governments to support their ideas about the environment, but a lot of older people would say that it's just another fashion a trend, it's just another way of introducing some new ideas and that the problems they describe are not so serious.
A good example is how it used to be called global warming, but now it's called climate change. Maybe they will invent another name for it in the future.

- Compared to before, do you think people's awareness (consciousness) of environmental problems has increased or decreased? How? Why?
- Nowadays, I think most people are more concerned about the economic conditions in their country than the environment. Many people are still suffering with bad debt, some of them are struggling to find a job, earn enough money and pay their bills.
People have been more focused on the consequences of the latest financial crisis than on enviornmental problems ... it has produced more immediate problems such as higher unemployment, being more difficult to get a bank loan and other types of credit. These things affect people more directly today than some envionmental problems which may have an effect on future generations.
So people may be more aware, but the environmental problems are not the hot topic anymore, it's the economy and its associated problems.

- What do you think will be the result if we ignore these environmental problems?
- Well, if we just carry on without making any changes, then one day in the future we will find ourselves confronted with disaster and chaos. Imagine if one day we just ran out of fuel; no gas, no oil, no energy. The world as we know it now would come to a halt. If we continue polluting, and the world population continues growing - who knows what new problems may develop in the future; lack of food, clean water, bad air and new illnesses maybe. Thankfully, we are making some changes and it's very likely that our lives will be very different in the future.
