Pollution Concerns Grow Alongside Economy In China

JOQCarri31748023:

Over the past few years, growing environmental pressure in China has forced the country to finally look into such issues as people residing near heavy industrial clusters continue to suffer from air, water and soil contamination. At the ninth "Science and Technological Week" held by the Guangdong Provincial Association for Science and Technology earlier this month, Wang Xiwen, an expert from the Chinese Academy of Engineering, gave a lecture about the seriousness of food security in China. According to Wang, heavy metal pollution is currently endangering some 300 million acres of farmland [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html kynghidongduong.vn] across China, equal to roughly one-sixth of all cropland in the country. Only 11 percent of farmland in Guangdong Province is considered to be free from contamination. "The pollution in coastal regions is much heavier," Wang said. "The metals mercury, cadmium and copper are the main contaminants. Now the heavy metal contamination is growing in the same speed as our economic development, which means the more our country is developed, the more dangerous our environment will be, especially in the Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Guangdong and Liaoning provinces. In addition, the soil pollution in some inland provinces has been spreading gradually, for example, the Chang-Zhu-Tan (Changsha-Zhuzhou-Xiangtan) city cluster in Hunan Province is the most advanced area in terms of economic development in the province, while the area appears to have the most severe soil contamination as well." Statistics show that in Guangdong Province 89 percent of the farmland [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html tour phượng hoàng cổ trấn] has already been contaminated, with 77 percent considered lightly contaminated and 12 percent classified as heavily polluted. The soil contamination in the lower Pearl River Delta area is a result of frequent industrial activities, while the pollution in northern Guangdong Province has been caused mainly by mining activities. Huge amounts of heavy metals flow into rivers and lakes in the process of washing mineral ore. In Hunan Province, the Research and Development Department of the local National Land and Resources Bureau has tracked the health records of some 70,000 individuals over the last 25 years. The [http://www.buzzfeed.com/search?q=records records] show that the number of people who suffer from osteocarcinoma (known as bone cancer) and other bone diseases such as osteoporosis have gone up. In the severely contaminated Zhuzhou City, it was discovered that the cadmium content of local residents was two to five times higher than normal. China's Hetao District is a region in the upper reaches of the Yellow River in Northwestern China that includes the Yinchuan Plain, the Ordos Plateau, as well as the Loess Plateau and forms parts of Shaanxi, Ningxia, and Inner Mongolia. The region has been known for its low quality underground water with high arsenic and fluorine content. There are 300,000 people facing the risk of arsenic poisoning, while 2,000 people have already been contaminated in the region, reports said. In Wuyuan County of Bayannur, a city in western Inner Mongolia, cancer has become the leading cause of mortality. There's also an area between Horinger County and Togtoh County - both of which are under jurisdiction of the Inner Mongolian capital city Hohhot - where the underground water is contaminated heavily by fluorine. Many villagers in the region have darkened teeth and suffer from various bone diseases. Horinger County is best known for the Mengniu Diary Company - one of China's main dairy manufacturers. Around one of the mines of the Baotou Iron and Steel Group, a state-owned steel company in Inner Mongolia, some villagers and [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html tour phượng hoàng cổ trấn] their livestock are endangered because of the heavily polluted land which is contaminating the crops. Zinc contamination has long tormented the people of Huludao in northwestern Liaoning Province. Again, cancer and various bone diseases have taken away many lives.

Brief Introduction Located in northwest Hunan Province and covering an area of 369 square kilometers, the Wulingyuan Scenic Area comprises the Zhangjiajie National Forest Park in Zhangjiajie City, the Suoxiyu Nature Reserve in Cili County, the Tianzi Nature Reserve and the Yangjia-jie Scenic Area in Sangzhi County. It is famous for its "five wonders", [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html kynghidongduong.vn] namely queer peaks, tranquil valleys, elegant rivers, deep forests and ancient karst caves. It is ranked as a national AAAAA tourist area. Wulingyuan features some 3,000 towering sandstone pillars and peaks, 243 of which are more than 1,000 meters high and most are over 200 meters high. Of these, the Imperial Pen Peak, in excess of 100 meters above sea level, has several parallel apexes of different heights. It is regarded as being the best representative of the peaks at Wulingyuan. There are 32 streams, each with a length of at least 2,000 meters, in the Wulingyuan Scenic Area, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html tour trương gia giới] and the Gold Whip Stream and the Suoxi River both run through it. The Gold Whip Stream was formed naturally and gets its name because it passes by the Gold Whip Rock. It extends 5,700 meters through the steep cliffs and queerly-shaped peaks. With limpid water and luxuriant vegetation around, it has been recognized as one of the most beautiful waterways of Zhangjiajie. Meanwhile, Wulingyuan boasts large numbers of karst caves. The well-known Yellow Dragon Cave has a ground area of 100,000 square meters, is 7.5 kilometers long, and has a vertical height of 140 meters. It is rare among the world's karst caves in terms of the scale, number and shape of its stalactites. Transport The Zhangjiajie Hehua Airport, about five kilometers away from the downtown, has opened flight routes to over 20 cities. However, with the exception of Shanghai, Beijing,Guangzhou, Chengdu and Changsha, these services are not available on a daily basis and are often subject to changes, so tourists should refer to the flight numbers as displayed on the computer of the local booking offices. Through the Shimenxian-Changsha Railway and the Beijing-Guangzhou Railway, Zhangjiajie is linked with over 10 large and medium-sized cities by train. In the scenic area itself, environmentally-friendly buses shuttle passengers between any two of the scenic spots. Mini-buses travel frequently between the downtown of Zhangjiajie City and the Wulingyuan Scenic Area, a distance of some 30 kilometers. In addition, the Zhangjiajie National Forest Park and the Suoxiyu Nature Reserve are connected by a highway, and the Tianzi Mountain Nature Reserve and the Yangjiajie Scenic Area by the [http://search.usa.gov/search?affiliate=usagov&query=Liangyuan Liangyuan] Road. Catering Within the scenic area as a whole, the Zhangjiajie National Forest Park has the most developed supplementary facilities. In regard to catering, Zhangjiajie cuisine belongs to a branch of Hunan cuisine, but features a greater degree of traditional farmhouse cooking styles such as smoking and baking. The main characteristic of the cuisine is its distinctive peppery taste. The price of food in the scenic area is comparatively high, but here one can taste such special local dishes as the Sauteed Preserved Meat with Kudzu Root, the Rock Edible Fungus, and the Stir-Fried Eggs with Sour Corn. Shopping Wulingyuan has many special local products. The kiwi fruit, the Qingyan Mingcui Tea, the Longxia Jasmine Tea and pine mushroom are all renowned; the Sangzhi Salt Dried Bean Curd was served as a tribute during the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911): the Kudzu Root Powder is pure natural beverage; the Maoping Maojian Tea features a light fragrance and beautiful color; and the Lameizi series of foods with local flavor are also highly recommended.

China apos;s CNGR To Make Nickel Matte In Indonesia As Battery Demand Grows

By Tom Daly April 8 (Reuters) - Chinese battery material maker CNGR Advanced Material Co said on Thursday it would set up a joint venture in Indonesia to produce nickel matte, used to make chemicals for electric car batteries, with a Singapore-based partner. CNGR last month agreed to buy nickel matte - an intermediate product that can be processed into battery-grade nickel - from Tsingshan Holding Group. The surprise deal sent nickel prices plunging as the market sensed concerns of tight nickel supply could be overdone. Now, Changsha-based CNGR is looking to produce matte itself in a $243 million smelting project in Tsingshan's industrial park on the Indonesian island [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html tour phượng hoàng cổ trấn] of Sulawesi. The project with Singapore-based Rigqueza International will produce 30,000 tonnes of nickel matte a year, CNGR said.

Rigqueza is registered in Singapore but it was not immediately clear if the company is related to Tsingshan. The first $81 million phase is set to produce 10,000 tonnes of matte on a nickel content basis, said the filing, which did not provide a targeted start-up date. The [http://www.melodyhome.com/category-0/?u=0&q=venture venture] is the latest in a number of Chinese-backed projects in top nickel miner Indonesia, which banned nickel ore exports from the start of 2020 as it sought to establish a fully integrated battery industry at home.

Residents, factories and businesses in Hunan, Zhejiang and Jiangxi provinces have been ordered to ration electricity with some areas citing a shortfall in coal supplies, according to local media reports and government notices. China's rebound from the Covid-19 pandemic has been driven by energy intensive industries such as construction, heaping pressure on the power grid and coal supplies, said Lauri Myllyvirta, lead analyst at the Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air. Earlier this month, Hunan authorities ordered all billboards and outdoor lighting on buildings to power off for long periods each day and a temperature cap on indoor heating at entertainment venues. Hunan faces a shortfall of 3-4 million kilowatts of electricity this winter, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html tour trương gia giới] local officials admitted last week, as demand soars due to unusually cold weather that will hit as low as -10 degrees Celsius. Office workers in provincial capital Changsha complained on social media about being forced to climb dozens of flights of stairs and freezing indoor temperatures as a result of frequent power outages. "My office heating has already been stopped, and there were blackouts on December 1, 3 and 5.

China -- by far the world's biggest consumer of coal -- is pivoting to renewable energy sources to meet a pledge to peak carbon emissions by 2030 and reach carbon neutrality by 2060. Speculation has swirled online that the power shortages may be self-inflicted wound as a result of China's embargo of Australian coal, which has left ships stranded at ports, unable to offload large quantities of coal. However, Australian coal only made up about three per cent of last year's total coal imports of 265 million tonnes, according to data from the [http://imgur.com/hot?q=National%20Bureau National Bureau] of [http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&gl=us&tbm=nws&q=Statistics&gs_l=news Statistics].

BEIJING/FRANKFURT, April 9 (Reuters) - China's auto market, the world's biggest, will gradually recover and remain stable for a long period despite short-term pressure from the coronavirus epidemic, officials said on Thursday. The statement came as executives from Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen said demand is rebounding in China after restrictions on [https://twitter.com/search?q=social%20life&src=typd social life] were eased and dealerships reopened. China's auto sales dropped 79% from a year earlier in February due to the epidemic. However, the situation was temporary and didn't affect long-term trends in the industry, Cai Ronghua, a senior official at National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), told a news conference. He noted the broader impact of any further downturn in the sector. "If auto production and sales continue to decline, it will not only affect the industry itself, but also affect the resumption of production in other industries, and may even affect the smooth operation of the entire economy," Cai said, adding auto production had not so far been affected by global auto parts supply disruption. Separately, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment (MEE) is considering postponing the implementation of new gasoline emission standards in some provinces, Wu Xianfeng, a senior official at MEE, said. Volkswagen, the world's largest carmaker and China's best- selling manufacturer, said showroom traffic during the last weekend of March had rebounded to year-earlier levels after its dealerships re-opened as measures to contain the pandemic were eased. The SAIC Volkswagen factory in Changsha resumed operations this week, putting all but one of VW Group's 33 car and component plants in China back in business, VW said. Volkswagen Group China CEO Stephan Wöllenstein said: "Our dealerships are seeing customers on the showroom floors once again. There are growing signs of recovery, with a good chance that the Chinese car market could reach last year´s level in early summer."

China Restaurant Apologises For Weighing Customers

In response, regional catering groups have urged customers to order one dish fewer than the number of diners at a table -- an attempt to overturn the ingrained cultural habit of ordering extra food for group meals.

In a swift backlash, hashtags related to the incident have been viewed over 300 million times on the social platform Weibo. The restaurant said it was "deeply sorry" for its interpretation of the anti-waste campaign. "Our original intentions were to advocate stopping waste and ordering food in a healthy way. We never forced customers to weigh themselves," it said in an apology posted online on Saturday morning. Chinese state media has also waged war on viral binge-eating videos, known as "mukbang", while livestreaming platforms have promised to shut down accounts promoting excess eating and food wastage.
