“End-of-the-world”island combines ecological conservation with cultural tourism to build its own calling card.IN the 1980s,a popular song in China went like this:“Come to the end of the world,where it is spring all year round.”The place was Hainan,China’s southernmost province and a tropical paradise,and the song conjured up an image of beautiful flowers,green trees,and warm sunshine.However,spring may not always be beautiful.Silent Spring,an environmental science book by American conservationist Rachel Carson,is a warning about environmental pollution due to the indiscriminate use of pesticide.What kind of spring we will have depends on our choices and actions.
