WASHINGTON, April 21 (Xinhua) The COVID-19 pandemic has raised people s awareness for environmental protection, U.S. ecological philosopher John B. Cobb, Jr. told Xinhua in an exclusive interview ahead of the annual Earth Day which falls on April 22. For decades many people have agreed that the world is heading in the wrong direction, that change is needed. But their practical actions have been little influenced, said Cobb, a 96-year-old member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. The pandemic has greatly increased the number who understand at a deeper level, one that has more influence on action, that change is needed, said Cobb, founding president of the Institute for Postmodern Development of China.
