Along with the rapid development of social productivity brought by the third industrial revolution, human's crazy pursuit of material and its consequences of excessive consumption of natural resources and setting off wastes into environment has greatly gone beyond the ecology's own dissolving ability, which results in a series of ecology problems such as the lack of natural resources, deterioration of environmental pollution and the ecology unbalance.
