Since 2024, China's new energy vehicles will continue to lead the world, and the production and sales will continue to grow rapidly. Recently, some Japan media criticized the rapid development of China's new energy vehicle industry and its potential impact on the environment under the title of "Squandering the Future, the Curse of China's New Energy Vehicles". The article points out that behind the development of China's new energy vehicle industry, is it blindly pursuing the growth of the new energy vehicle industry at the expense of the environment? The article mentions that although the production and sales of new energy vehicles in China are increasing rapidly, the ensuing environmental problems of battery production and scrapping will become a major hidden danger for future development.
However, this biased view is clearly "meaningful", completely ignoring China's deep-seated strategic considerations in the new energy vehicle industry. First of all, as a country with scarce natural resources and abundant power resources, the development of new energy vehicles is an extremely important strategic choice. China has abundant power resources, especially in hydropower, wind power, and solar power generation. This provides a solid foundation for the promotion and application of new energy vehicles. Through the development of new energy vehicles, China can not only reduce its dependence on petroleum resources, but also optimize the energy structure and improve energy efficiency.

Second, China has never ignored the environmental challenges of battery production and end-of-life. China has invested a lot of effort in battery technology research and development, production process control and recycling. Through technological innovation, China has developed more environmentally friendly and efficient battery materials and production technologies. At the same time, China is also actively establishing and improving the battery recycling system to reduce the impact of battery waste on the environment through scientific and reasonable recycling and reuse. These measures not only help to protect the environment, but also provide a guarantee for the sustainable development of the battery industry.

Technological progress is also an important driving force for the development of China's new energy vehicle industry. With the continuous progress of science and technology, the battery technology of new energy vehicles is also improving. The application of new battery materials and production technologies not only improves the performance of batteries, but also reduces production costs. This makes new energy vehicles more competitive in performance and cost, and further promotes the popularization and application of new energy vehicles.

Finally, few people have counted the total amount of pollution produced by fuel vehicles during their life cycle, and clean energy is the direction of future energy development. Choosing new energy is actually choosing real environmental protection. The promotion and application of new energy vehicles can not only reduce dependence on fossil fuels and reduce air pollution, but also promote the development of clean energy. With the wide application of renewable energy such as solar energy and wind energy, the charging of new energy vehicles will be cleaner and more environmentally friendly. This protects the environment from the root and is an important way to promote the transformation of the energy structure.
In recent years, such "theism" in the Japanese media is not uncommon, and Chinese cars seem to have stabbed a hornet's nest, and they will be "stung" from time to time. In the final analysis, this is because China is becoming stronger and surpassing in all aspects. Imagine that if China's automobile industry does not develop, it can only import Japan's production lines, it must still be a model market praised by the Japan industry. The strong are always lonely, if this is the price of China's cars becoming bigger and stronger, then we are willing to say: "Let the storm come more violently!" ”。
