WHAT IS THE GLOBAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS OF RAPID CHINESE DEVELOPMENT?
China is the third largest country in the world with a massive population of 1.3 billion and rising; a sixth of the worlds population. It is currently ruled by the communist party. It is one of the most diverse countries with its different range of terrain. In my report I am going to analyse and infer about the impacts of China developing environmentally. As it does have its positives it also brings negatives. I’m going to show how China has become one the richest countries in resources and financially.
Even though China is a big country; its population isn’t as spread out as it should. In China more people live in the towns and cities which are situated in the east and south of China. Cities like Shanghai, Beijing and Chongqing have the densest population. The west is mostly countryside or mountain and therefore you can’t build cities on the land. Because of the dense population in China, there is more competition for jobs which means more factories are going to build and cities are going to expand. Creating more factories will increase more carbon dioxide into the air; contaminating China.
