"I am honored to receive this national accolade for environmental protection," said Dr. Zhengrong Shi. "The increasing symptoms of climate change are a concern not just for China, but the entire world and I believe that it is our responsibility, both as individuals and as corporations, to proactively support initiatives that conserve our environment and encourage sustainable development.
