Protect China Sea islands, don’t fight over them

If Asian leaders had a modicum of environmental awareness they would consider bestowing official recognition for all those South China Sea islands as part of a maritime protected region. The US, Britain, Canada and other Western countries do this, but Asi
Asians can’t understand that a protected park is better (and more economically enriching in the long term) than putting up fences, pouring concrete and spoiling the water with oil spills, trash, etc. Wherever people reside, trash, toxicity and the death of species soon follow. There are no exceptions, except maybe Antarctica. As we speak, Chinese are pouring concrete, destroying habitats and species and creating heaps of plastic garbage on islands west of the Philippines.
