Will a new law bring China’s dying Yangtze River back to life?

"The global conservation body WWF said in September that nearly half of the country’s heavy metal pollution hotspots were within the Yangtze River Economic Belt, which stretches from Sichuan in the southwest to Zhejiang in the east."

“The pollution was so severe that I could smell pesticide on the fish. Nobody eats fish caught in the river any more.”
A turning point came in January 2016 when President Xi Jinping presided over a symposium in Chongqing in western China saying enough was enough and the pollution must stop.
“We must give priority to the long-term interests of the nation and the restoration of the Yangtze River, making an all-out effort to protect [the Yangtze] and stop any large-scale development of the river,” Xi said.
