They also promised in these ads that they would dedicate even more efforts to environmental protection, pay for cleanup and fund environmental education. The public deduced that the ads were the last gasps of a degenerate company, however, and deemed them unbelievable. They even called the advertisements a joke! That was when the company realized that it had failed to re-define itself to the public and agreed with the consensus that they should cut their losses and close down. They defaulted on their loan payments and filed for bankruptcy. It was the end of the company but definitely not the end of the battle. Numerous other companies were still out there, polluting the environment and selling defective products. The battle would be long, but the dedicated few knew that it would be worth it to everyone in the end.
他们还在这些广告中承诺会对环境保护付出更多努力，出资净化环境并且资助环境教育。可是，公众推断，这些广告是一家退化公司的最后喘息，认为它们是不可信的。他们甚至称这些广告是笑话!到这时公司才意识到没有向公众重新解释自己，一致同意应该减少损失、关门大吉。他们拖欠贷款，申请破产。公司完了，但战斗肯定还没有结束。还有无数其他公司在污染环境和出售有缺陷的产品。战斗会旷日持久，但那些少数具有献身精神的人知道对每个人来说此战最终是值得一打的。
