Essay on The Chinese State Environmental Protection Agency

The citizen suit provision of the Clean Water Act is an important tool to protect and improve rivers, creeks, streams, and wetlands especially as state agencies may not have the resources to conduct regular water quality monitoring on every water body. Citizen involvement in monitoring and reporting pollution problems is key to watershed protection; hereby helping the government enforce the laws.

According to history of China, water consumption, growing population and demand for higher living standards were increasing steadily since the 1950s, when industrial development of the country started. In theory that could lead to new economic era and growth of the country, but in practice that caused one of the most important environmental problems in China. First of all, the pollution of water resources in this country goes deep into history in the 1970s. According to Wang (1989), the situation hasn’t changed for the better and the rate of pollution increased rapidly. Even nowadays the government of China cannot tackle

One of China’s best successes has in turn been one of its biggest downfalls. One of the main problems is China’s greatest success which has been its phenomenal economic growth. This is one of the main drivers of the current environmental problems that the country faces. Factories dump pollutants into the air and water. It is difficult to see the Chinese government making the significant sacrifices required to improve their environment if it means slowing down their economic growth.

water, air, etc., dirty and not safe or suitable to use. Pollution as we know it, can be caused by

Unfortunately, the endeavors of the environmentalists did not stop the oppression of pollution, especially in China. More than 70% of China’s water resources

China has shifted their view on the matter of climate change as they are trying to lower their use of coal as an energy source form 72% to 47% by 2040. This may be due to the fact that the Chinese administration is trying to make China a global clean energy leader, which would draw worldwide investments.

The people of China enjoy the assets of a flourishing economy but they also are suffering from the price that is being paid on the environment and specifically air pollution in their country due to the cities and the housing of people and the materials that are being used

The gross domestic product system is flawed and has many criticisms as a realistic guide to a nation's well-being. It includes the cost of damage caused by pollution as a positive factor in its calculations while excluding the lost value of depleted natural resources and unpaid costs of environmental harm. “...during 1973-85 had higher pollution intensities of GDP than those with more inward-oriented trade policies,” states Michael T. Rock, 1996, in “Pollution Intensity of GDP and Trade Policy: Can the World Bank Be Wrong?”. Furthermore, in “As China Roars, Pollution Reaches Deadly Extremes,” by Joseph Kahn and Jim Yardley (2007) states, “ Environmental degradation is now so severe, with such stark domestic and international repercussions, that pollution poses not only a major long-term burden on the Chinese public....Environmental woes that might be considered catastrophic in some countries can seem commonplace in China: industrial cities where people rarely see the sun; children killed or sickened by lead poisoning or other types of local pollution.” These lines represent major issues about air pollution affecting the people and the environment. The pollution also affects biodiversity because it releases both sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides deposit in water, on vegetation, and on soils as “acid rain”. Thereby increasing their acidity affects the ability of ecosystems to provide “ecosystem services”, such

The table below presents the rationale for each suggested solution based on the information provided in the case study:

The aim of this paper is to provide a detailed and critical analysis of the market and industry factors that Boots would have considered regarding their strategy to expand into the Far-East and in particular Japan, contrasting this against other companies that have gained a foothold in their chosen market foray and developed their international

Scoffed at by many during its infancy, the global video gaming industry has become a multi-billion dollar enterprise today that promises continued strong growth in the future. With several platforms and thousands of game titles available in hundreds of languages, video gaming systems are increasingly popular among young and old players alike. Although uptake patterns continue to shift among major target countries, video game demand, particularly online gaming, remains strong in countries such as South Korea. The objective of this report was to identify a country in Asia that would be a favorable market for a product launch from Krome Studios, currently Australia's largest video game developer. Krome Studios has a proven track record of success that makes it especially well situated to expand its international operations into a growth market such as South Korea. In this regard, the results of the research showed that South Korea represents the most favorable target country at present for Krome's business goals and recommendations are provided in support of this initiative.

Currently, most countries have made numerous environmental policies and spent lots of money to stop environmental pollution and protect the environment. In China, China’s leaders were putting, even more, emphasis on the companies who make chemical production, especially after chemical disasters in recent years. Although China has made great process in supervision pollution, the serious gaps still exist in hazardous materials’ oversight in China. Recently, there was uproar among Chinese families after a report of China Central Television, and the report revealed that about 500 students at Changzhou Foreign Languages School had developed illnesses because of pollution at school.

The First Meeting of the Third Phase China Council for International Cooperation on Environment and Development

China has become a global superpower. Its rise to the top of the trading chain has become a key factor into what it’s become today. With its accelerated population over the last years, it’s economic value has flourished its economy to a wide extent. There is also a saying, that with every good thing, there is always something bad. That’s when China’s environmental factors come to play. In the last twenty years, the quality of life in china has been decaying. The air surrounding most of the major cities in china are filled with horrible, toxic chemicals that has brought worldwide attention to this issue. Not only that, but contaminated and scarce water in China also play large roles in the impact of the environment. I believe that the increase in population, coal processing, and manufacturing of goods, have brought about environmental damages, but has also created economic stability.
