However, I do not fully agree with this opinion. I believe that if people do not throw away garbage anywhere, all the cleaners will lose their jobs and may leads to a more terrible consequence. In addition, other areas may have the same causation, such as the police and criminals. If there are no criminals in the world, the police will lose their jobs. In my opinion, we should consider two sides of every social event due to its effects on our entire society.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/jialiangma\/files\/2013\/10\/crowds-at-beijing-tiananmen-2013-national-day-flag-raising-ceremony-litter-garbage-05-600x400.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-24\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/jialiangma\/files\/2013\/10\/crowds-at-beijing-tiananmen-2013-national-day-flag-raising-ceremony-litter-garbage-05-600x400-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/jialiangma\/files\/2013\/10\/crowds-at-beijing-tiananmen-2013-national-day-flag-raising-ceremony-litter-garbage-05-600x400-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/jialiangma\/files\/2013\/10\/crowds-at-beijing-tiananmen-2013-national-day-flag-raising-ceremony-litter-garbage-05-600x400-450x300.jpg 450w, https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/jialiangma\/files\/2013\/10\/crowds-at-beijing-tiananmen-2013-national-day-flag-raising-ceremony-litter-garbage-05-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Links:<\/p>\n<p>http:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/n3\/305410-national-day-brings-flags-and-trash-to-tiananmen-square\/?photo=2<\/p>\n<p>http:\/\/www.chinasmack.com\/2013\/stories\/national-day-tiananmen-square-litter-calculated-explained.html<\/p>\n<p>http:\/\/www.chinasmack.com\/2013\/pictures\/litter-after-national-day-flag-raising-ceremony-reactions.html<\/p>\n<p>http:\/\/www.scmp.com\/comment\/insight-opinion\/article\/1325354\/five-tonnes-trash-tiananmen-provoke-questions-about<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2 days ago, over 100,000 people gathered together at the\u00a0Tiananmen Square to watch the ceremony of the rising of\u00a0the Five Star Red Flag, which is the symbol of the beginning of the Chinese National Day.
