China’s environmental problems are mounting. Water pollution and water scarcity are burdening the economy, rising levels of air pollution are endangering the health of millions, and much of the country’s land is rapidly turning into desert. As China’s pollution woes increase, so, too, do the risks to its economy, public health, social stability, and international reputation.
Also China’s environmental problems are already affecting the rest of the world.
This presentation highlights the development of an environmental park that will turn Sias International University into the first Green Campus in China and will be used as a teaching lab and demonstration site.
