The Urbanization Process in China and its Impact on the Environment

More about the book

The paper analyzes China's rapid urbanization over recent decades, highlighting that more than 50 percent of the population now resides in urban areas. This transformation is largely attributed to rural-urban migration linked to industrialization and government-driven urbanization initiatives. It also addresses significant challenges posed by this urban growth, including issues related to energy and resources, pollution, and land consumption, suggesting a need for strategic solutions to these pressing problems.
