The Environmental Greening Bureau's treatment plan still focused mainly on providing more greenery.
At this stage, they truly had no other way to deal with the pollution problem.
When it came to environmental pollution, aside from cutting it off at the source, all they could do was purify it.
This time, cutting it off at the source was obviously impossible, unless Great Zhou stopped developing.
Not only could they not cut it off at the source, but as electricity was laid out and various electrical devices were developed, this pollution would only grow increasingly serious.
That was one of the major drawbacks of thermal power generators.
To solve the problem at its root, he would have to eliminate thermal power generators altogether.
But that idea was completely unrealistic.
Not to mention their current era—even in modern societies with far more advanced technology, thermal power generators were irreplaceable and remained the most important power-generation equipment.
This also meant that the pollution problem could never be completely eradicated. They could only control and reduce it to an appropriate degree.
At this stage, planting greenery around the area should be enough, but as time went on, it would definitely no longer suffice.
From Zhou Xu's perspective, the best response was undoubtedly to increase their means of power generation.
Thermal power generators were indeed the mainstay of power generation. That was something they could not change.
But he could reduce their reliance on thermal power generators to a reasonable degree—changing from generating one hundred percent of their electricity through thermal power generators to seventy percent, with the remaining thirty percent handled through other means.
That thirty percent might not seem like much, but over time, its impact would be enormous.
As a modern man, Zhou Xu naturally knew that there were many other means
