This edition of the book combines two years of reports on China's environment from the view of civil society. With a special focus on natural and unnatural disasters, the book also covers the themes of pollution and ecological protection, urban environmental issues and livability, sustainable consumption, policy and governance, civil society and public participation, and China and the world in an environmental perspective. In this volume, readers are brought up to date on the main environmental issues and events of 2010 and 2011. Beginning in 2010, debris flows, landslides, and droughts brought about considerable debate on the human factors involved in ?natural disasters? and on China?s urban growth mode. The concept of urban livability is discussed within the backdrop of the waste and water crises. Several environmental incidents, including the Bohai Bay oil spill and the chromium slag pollution incident in Qujing, are also explored within the book. Meanwhile, increased public participation and environmental information transparency give reason for hope. Other articles include research and analysis on China?s investments in Africa, its struggling environmental courts, public interest litigation, the controversial Xiaonanhai dam and others on the Mekong River, green supply chains, and the PM2.5 debate. 410 0$aChinese Research Perspectives$v1. 606 $aEnvironmental protection$zChina 606 $aEnvironmental policy$zChina 606 $aEnvironmentalism$zChina 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEnvironmental protection 615 0$aEnvironmental policy 615 0$aEnvironmentalism 676 $a333.720951 702 $aYang$b Dongping$f1949- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463284703321 996 $aChinese research perspectives on the environment$91956985 997 $aUNINA
