People in Wuxi did not have clean water to drink. That is too sad. In recent days, Dianchi Lake was also attacked by blue algaes. The water has bcome green. An official said that the situation is not serious compared with last year and people's drinking water source will not be affected. When asked how to solve this problem thoroughly, the official said that the only way is to improve the quality of the water. According to the statistics, about 4.7 billion has been allocated to control the pollution of Dianchi Lake since 1993. But the result was not satisfying. Why??? A lot of money has been spent, but the situation has not been improved. If the pollution continues to expand, Dianchi Lake may disappear.

People were still swimming in the water. If the problem cannot be fixed in the short term, at least we need notices and enforcement so that lives are not at risk.
