China economic development

The rich deposits of natural resources are important to China s economic development. Therefore, an effective integration of these factors is of the utmost necessity for the development of her national economy. How else can China think of achieving her goal of "The Four Modernizations" Science and Technology, Industry, Agriculture and Military Security ... 

I have presented a general socio-political overview of China. The in-depth analysis of China s political environment is both necessary and relevant. The prevailing political climate in China determines not only China s economic development path, but also its scientific and technological development path. Politics is China s "Great Helmsman". In the process, I hope I have provided sufficient background information on the Chinese psyche and society to aid in interpreting nuances when interacting with the Chinese. 

It is entirely conceivable, for example, that, over the next several decades, more and more pharmaceutical research will shift from Europe and the United States to Asia, especially to China, where there will likely be an abundance of highly trained and relatively low-cost scientific personnel to conduct the research. Even the more economically developed Asian nations, such as Korea, Singapore, and Taiwan, are likely to benefit from this migration, as long as they strive to have a comparative advantage in scientific research vis-a-vis the United States and Europe. 

Solutions to problems caused by POPs are closely linked to China s environmental protection, social and economic development. Updating management policy and monitoring capability is likely the first step that needs to be taken at the present stage. 

China has more than 50,000 rivers with catchment areas of some 100 km2, of which 79 have catchment areas of more than 10,000 km2. The rivers in China have a total length of 226,800 km and a total flow of more than 2,600,000 million m3. With the rapid economic development and population increase that have occurred in recent years, the water quality of... 

Because of the enormous differences in economic development, population density, and size of different provinces in China, total emission, emission density, emission intensity, and emission per capita showed geographical variations. In general, the southeastern provinces were characterized by higher emission density, while those in western and northern China featured higher emission intensity and population-normalized emission. The annual PAH emissions at the provincial level ranged from... 

First, the increasing world population and the rapid economic development of large countries such as China and India cause a fast-growing energy demand and rising concerns of energy security How will political constraints impact our access to oil and gas Will prices of energy remain affordable for our economies in spite of political constraints and needs for investments to exploit new resources ... 

World C02 emissions are expected to increase by 1.9% annually from 2001 to 2025. Much of the increase in these emissions is expected to occur in the developing world, where emerging economies such as China and India fuel their economic development mostly with fossil energy. China s C02 emissions in 2007 exceeded those of the United States, and emissions of the developing countries are expected to surpass those of the industrialized countries about the year 2018. In terms of per capita carbon dioxide emissions, the United States is still the "leader" with a 21 tons/per capita/per year emission (Russia 11.8, EU 8.6, China 5.1, India 1.8), and these emissions continued to increase in all parts of the world except the EU, where it has been reduced by 2%. 

Less-developed nations such as China believe that the industrial nations polluted their way into prosperity and became concerned about environmental damage only after their economies had already matured. Therefore, they feel it is unfair that the industrial nations—which did and are still emitting most of the greenhouse gases—should expect the less-developed ones to curtail their economic development to cut global carbon emissions. At the 2007 UN conference in Bali, China and India continued to refuse limiting their emissions. 

Second, it is clear that house buying and indoor decoration and refurbishment of existing and new buildings will still be in great demand in view of the economic development trend and the current hving space situation in China, especially in urban areas. Managing the construction and indoor decoration and refurbishment of the residential buildings will continue to be one of the most critical factors in the control of indoor air pollution in China. 

Because of the special circumstances in western China, such as a relatively poor economic development, low population density and, more prominently, ready availability of raw salt, other options such as iodizing the locally... 

When LJSI was pursued throughout China, for the most part it was a matter of people switching to iodized salt when it became the only salt available in the market. In areas such as Tibet, however, the situation is quite different. Relatively low economic development, compounded by readily available raw salt through the century-old, traditional barter system, has made the push for iodized salt much more challenging. Health education using locally-developed relevant materials and communication channels, such as culturally sensitive posters, radio broadcasts and television advertising, to create demand for iodized salt was one of the important interventions of the project (Li et al., 2005). 

In other speeches. Secretary of State William Rogers backed up Nixon s thesis with a Troubled Modernizer portrayal of China, asserting that the Chinese feared not so much encirclement by the military strength of the United States as the real threat [that] comes from the superior performance of open societies in the form of the economic development of neighboring noncommunist Asian states. 5 ...
