With the progress of society and the continuous development of the economy, people's values are constantly changing. In the past, houses and cars were a symbol of everyone's economic strength, so most people would pay a huge effort and price for it.
However, in today's rapidly developing economy, people's lifestyles and values have changed. In less than 5 years, the most expensive things in China may no longer be houses and cars, but these seemingly inconspicuous but closely related to people's quality of life. These things are "inconspicuous" because they may not be fully appreciated by most people at the moment.
So what are these four inconspicuous things, and why are they more expensive than houses and cars?
1. Clean air
The reason why clean air is likely to become a precious resource in the future is mainly because of the severity of environmental pollution. Everyone knows that air is vital to humans. However, today's air pollution is very serious, and many people are not aware of this problem, knowing that polluted air is inhaled into the human body, which can cause many diseases and even lead to death.
Due to the rapid development of industrialization, the problem of air pollution is becoming more and more prominent, especially in some heavy industrial areas, and the degree of pollution is even more serious, and this pollution has become a threat to human health.
Each of us has the responsibility and obligation to participate in improving air quality, so in our daily life, choose public transportation or cycling, and reduce the use of private cars as much as possible, which can reduce exhaust emissions. In addition, we also need to pay attention to environmental issues, such as garbage classification, banning fireworks, etc., which will help improve the air.
2. Healthy food
Food has also changed with socio-economic development, and these changes have also had a great impact on people's health. In such a fast-paced living environment in modern society, people choose takeaway or some quick food in order to save time, although these foods are very convenient, but also cause a series of food health and safety issues.
It is difficult to control the freshness and quality of ingredients in takeaway and fast food, and many foods are added with a lot of preservatives, which may have a serious impact on human health if consumed for a long time. Therefore, if the current food safety issues are not effectively addressed, healthy food will become more and more precious.
3. Pure water
Water is the source of life and is essential for humans and all living things. However, with the rapid development of industrialization and urbanization, water resources are facing an unprecedented threat of pollution. Pollution of tap water, industrial wastewater, and the recent discharge of nuclear wastewater by the Japanese government all show that water resources are facing very serious challenges. These pollution not only affect human health, but also cause damage to ecosystems.
If environmental pollution is not effectively controlled, the pollution of water resources will become more serious. Therefore, if the current problem of water pollution is not effectively solved, pure water will become more and more precious.
Fourth, stable work
In today's fast-paced social environment, a stable job has become an important goal for many people. A stable job means a very stable income, which can provide enough education and daily expenses for the family, can promote relationships with colleagues, and can enjoy a high quality of life......
With a stable job as a foundation, whether it is career development, education advancement or other aspects, work can provide a solid backing. Therefore, it is also very important to have a stable job.
To sum up, in the next five years and beyond, the development of society and people's values have changed, and houses and cars are no longer the only indicators of quality of life. Instead, people will place greater emphasis on clean air, healthy food, pure water, and stable jobs, which are the foundation of life.
