Decades of Progress, a New Middle-Class, New Profound Challenges

As China's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) has skyrocketed...

40 Years, the Numbers begin to tell the Story of Change


China tops world for air pollution and carbon emissions, officials report.

Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei one of planet’s most polluted regions, but ‘lack of funding hampers progress on 2017 clean-up targets’


China tops the world in almost all types of air pollution, including sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, as well as carbon emissions, top mainland officials admitted.

The officials also told a Guangdong forum that the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region’s ­huge industrial output meant it was one of most polluted areas in the world.


Note: China and India have severe air pollution challenges. Both China and India are ranked as most polluted.

Those are the headline findings from a major new survey of 3,000 residents of Chinese cities carried out by IPSOS and commissioned by the Chinese Renewable Energy Industries Association.
