Essay / Research Paper Abstract
A 10 page paper discussing two environmental problems in China (the Three Gorges Dam and air pollution) and measures that the government has or may take to mitigate the environmental effects. In contrast is the experience of Singapore, which adopted stringent environmental regulations when its economic growth led to environmental degradation. Though geographical constraint is not an issue in China overall, the citizenry could be taught to view their immediate surroundings as the only "environment" that counts as the government imposes stricter, more encompassing regulation on environmental effect of business. This is not likely to occur on an official level any time soon; it is more likely that China, as the U.S. before it, will incur grave environmental costs before moving to effectively abating the environmental effect of its economic activity. Accompanying PowerPoint® presentation available. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

ideology, while yet adopting measures to facilitate freer economic principles. The people are benefiting, but only by default. One of the worlds "big emerging markets," China already has
surpassed most of the other nations of the world in purchasing volumes, if not in purchasing parity. Per capita income is still low by Western standards, but it is
increasing steadily as the economy grows at rates only slightly under double digits. Chinas capitalist experiment in a single southern province following the
death of Chairman Mao has proved to be economically successful, but the environment has suffered at the hand of economic development. The path that China continues to travel certainly
is not sustainable, but there are signs that the government is beginning to take note and take steps to avert further environmental damage resulting from industrial activity. Chinas Plight
The building boom in Chinas largest cities continues unabated. As the worlds multinational enterprises (MNEs) sought entry into China, the government began requiring
