Explanation:

In China, the great development in the economy of their country came at a great detrimental cost to them- increased environmental issues like fogs, impure air etc. These industries had lead to great challenges to an average Chinese citizens which indirectly reduces their life expectancy.

This had led to protest by the public towards such challenges leading to the government responding with stricter environmental policies.
