Water pollution is one of the most serious problems plaguing China
today with millions of citizens drinking water unfit for
consumption. These abysmal conditions have fuelled increasing
social discontent, as people become more concerned by the need to
address the pressing issues of water pollution, scarcity, and waste
management. This book describes how and why China has ended up in
such a dire situation, what the government is doing to address the
problem and the difficulties encountered in attempting to reduce
pollution. The analysis is based on both gray literature (newspaper
articles, NGO reports, Chinese government information) and on
academic studies. The gray literature gives a voice to those who
suffer from the pollution, their advocates, and government
officers, and allows the reader to better grasp the conditions on
the ground, and the impact of the air pollution among the people in
different areas in China. The academic literature adds a
theoretical perspective and brings these different case studies
into a broader context. This book will be of great interest to
students of environmental pollution and contemporary Chinese
studies looking for an introduction to the topic, as well as
researchers looking for an analysis of China's environmental
problems.
