The Japanese government is poised to release polluted water from the Fukushima nuclear power plant into the Pacific Ocean, according to Kyodo News. Such an extremely irresponsible act has been strongly criticized by China and other neighboring countries of Japan. However, most major Western media outlets have remained silent on Japan s decision that will influence health of hundreds of millions of people. For many Western elites, it seems that their so-called environmental concern is ideologically biased. Environmental protection is just an ideological tool for them to suppress rival countries.

BEIJING, April 10 (Xinhua) It has been half a century since China invited the U.S. table tennis team for a historic visit, and Ping-Pong Diplomacy still has profound implications in an ever-changing world.
On Saturday, a special event was staged in Shanghai in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of Ping-Pong Diplomacy. The Ping-Pong Diplomacy of 50 years ago is of special significance in the history of China-U.S. relations, Chinese Ambassador to the United States Cui Tiankai said in a video speech to the event.
Lately, I have had the good fortune to spend time with Gary Bertsch on his turf his backyard, which is a becoming garden of greenery and blooms, befitting his lifestyle, his work, his seasoned view of the world and a life well-lived.
He has a free-standing cottage in the back of his home on Henderson Avenue, which serves as his office and study. There is a wood-burning fireplace that gives off the warmth of inspiration. Books abound along with a few personal items, but it is not a showcase of his considerable accomplishments. Bertsch is a man who did some good for the world as a college professor, and he is still at it.
With climate change as one of the remaining areas China and the US can carry out cooperation amid bilateral tensions, US climate envoy John Kerry s reported visit, yet to be confirmed, still carries a positive signal of a cooperative facet in the most consequential relations between the two countries despite it may not be ice-breaking,Chinese observers said on Sunday.
