urbanization and environmental
protection
nowadays, the
problem of environment is becoming
increasingly serious in the society
because of urbanization
development.
therefore there are many people believe that we
have to stop developing urbanization to
prevent from
environment keep becoming
worse, while others think we can
not do
that because our society need to develop so that
we
can live in a better way. in my
opinion, i am convinced that we
can not
only develop urbanization, but protect our
environment.
on
the other hand, environmental pollution, such as
wastewater and exhaust gas, is the
matter of necessity of
urbanization. it
is obvious that industry can result in much
pollution, which can harm city
dwellers
health
significantly and cause various illness to them.
for
example, the factory of producing
computers will produce
more wastage
with producing machines. the wastage can be
wastewater discharge or exhaust gas
emission, which
definitely can lead to
pollute environment. the wastewater can
pollute the river, which means that it
can kill all kinds of
animals that live
in the river. exhaust gas not only indicates the
gas from factory, but the gas from
cars. with the increase
numbers of cars
in the city, the exhaust gas has became a
serious problem. they are the main
reason for air pollution,
which can
result in acid rain and global warming. in power
plants and combined heat and power
plants, fossil fuel
combustion results
in emitting to the atmosphere first of all so
2, no x, co, particulate matter,
greenhouse gases for instance n
2 o and
co 2 (eugeniusz mokrzycki, 2007). it is true that
urbanization will harm
environment.
while, i do
believe that we can keep a balance between
develop urbanization and protect
environment. first,
manufacturers
should have a strong awareness of protecting
environment. it is an effective way to
solve problem from the
source. if they
pay more attention to environment rather than
making more profit, they can take some
measures to reduce or
eliminate the
pollution after producing products. whats more, i
think governments can do some
contribution to environment,
which
means that they can commit more funds to
industries so
that they can solve the
pollution problems further.
governments
can also enact a law that factories have to deal
with their wastage in a reasonable and
they can check some
industries
implementation of the results randomly. i think
this
system with supervision can be an
efficient way to prevent
environmental
pollution. increased regulatory attention in
controlling
pollutants has encouraged
the development of water quality
trading programs over the past several
decades. these trading
programs could
provide the mechanisms to
cost
‐
effectively
achieve water quality objectives
(juliana corrales,
2013).
besides, we can see that starting to implement a
policy
that drivers can not drive every
day but in some special day or
time due
to their cars numbers in china, which indicates
that
governments have already done
something meaningful to
protect
environment. in my opinion, developing
urbanization
and protecting
environment, we can do them both.
urbanization can eich our life and
make our life more
convenient, but we
can not ignore environment. we have to
balance them in a suitable way so that
we can promote
urbanization and make
environment better because
environment
is important for humans sustainable
development.

urbanization should
be people-oriented
the so-
called urbanization is the process that people
comes
from countryside transforms to
the urban people. the essence
of
urbanization is citizenization of migrant workers.
urbanization has a tremendous and
profound impact on
economy, society and
culture. the rate of china’s urbanization
was about 20 percent in the beginning
of reform and open and
the official
figures indicated that rate of urbanization in
china
has exceeded 50 percent last
year. for a long time, this low-
cost
urbanization has lead that a large number of
migrant
workers can’t e
njoy
the treatment same as citizen. at the same
time, they can’t go back to the
hometown. the third plenary
session of
twelve has clearly presented that we must perfect
the system of urbanization. it is said
the quality of urbanization
should be
comprehensively improved so that more migrant
workers can enjoy equal public service
and get more
development
opportunity.
due to the
limitation of objective and subjective reasons, we
can find that some issues involved in
all aspects of the
economy, society,
resources and environment have exposed
throughout the process of urbanization
in china. and we must
maintain keen
vigilance to them because they may lead that
policies of government can’t be
enforced. these issues are
mainly in
three aspects following. firstly, some areas
prefer the
urbanization of land to
people. thus peasantries’ lands are
compulsory acquisition and their
interests are occupied.
secondly,
urbanization has been kidnapped by real estate in
china. buildings become the leading
actor in the urbanization.
thirdly,
government pays more attention to build the city
and
ignores the management of the city.
so in most case, the cities
are
magnificent and it doesn’t benefits the local
people. at the
same time, it is
unbalance between big and middle cities
development. the counties near peasant
lost the leading role in
the
urbanization.
the essence
of urbanization in reality is real estate now. it
seems like the migrant workers have
come into the city. the
reality is that
people not only lost the land and ways to live,
but
also doesn’t get the welfare which
the citizen have yet. they
often have
enough money to buy commercial residential
building. and the education, medical
treatment and even
minimum living
allowance also have nothing with them. when
the urbanization sacrifices the
benefits of rural regions and
peasants,
it is opposite to original intention of
urbanization.
the city is
the engine of growth. this engine depends on the
hands of marketing and government
jointly. urban
development has its own
inherent laws. it is proved that we will
pay the price if we violate this
law.
it is essential to
have a deep understanding of the long-term,
arduous and complex nature of
urbanization in developing
country
whose population has accounted for nearly 1 /5 of
world.
therefore, urbanization in china should be people-
oriented and
aim to deliver equitable
benefits to all. even though there are
many issues exited now, the government
must pursue
urbanization in an
innovative way to make sure that people can
enjoy modern and civilized way of life
and promote social
harmony and
progress. china should build harmonious and
livable modern cities, promote rural
migrant populations
integration into
cities, deliver equal basic public services,
including employment, education,
medical care and health and
social
security. to avoid real estate leading the
urbanization,
government should give
priority to building government
subsidized housing. all these steps
should be taken to ensure
that
development benefits and urban civilization are
enjoyed
by all.
【篇三:城市化中英文版本】
弊端
:
最近不断有我国城市化发展迅猛的报道,说我国
2003
年的城市化
水平已达到
40.5
%,超过原来计划指标,还说我国城市已进入
“<
/p>
加快
发展期
”
,
甚至有的报道称目前出现城市化
“
大跃进
”
。这样造势,推
动城市化进程,是不是好事?会不会带来什
么负面效果?
按照原来规划,我国
城市化水平到
2005
年达到
35
p>
%左右,到
2010
年达到
40
-
42
%。换句话说,我
国已提前
6
至
7
年实现原定城市化
的目标。权威部门提出,我国在本世纪中期城市化水平要达到
65
%,
再进而达到
75
%。
笔者的疑问之一是,我们城市化的步子是不是太快了,太急了。英
国城市化水平从
p>
26
%提高到
70
%用了
90
年时间,法国从
25.5<
/p>
%提
高到
71.7
%,美国从
25.7
%提高到
75.
2
%,都用了
120
年。而我们
从
1993
年的
28
%提高到
2003
年的
40.5
%仅用
10
年,不说
加快,
即使用这样的速度,
2020
年
左右就能达到
60
%,
2035
年以前就能
达到
75
%左右。换句话说,我们只用英国的一半时间,法国和美国
的差不多三分之一的时间,走
过同样的城市化进程。
疑问之二是
,我国是否有必要,将城市化的水平定得同发达国家一
样高,要达到
75
%以上。要实现工业化、现代化,缩小城乡差别,
推动
社会经济发展,没有一定的城市化水平是不行的,这是一个容
易懂得的道理;我国在
p>
80
年代以前城市化水平低,现在仍然不够高,
需要提高,这也毫无疑问。但各国的城市化水平是否应该一样?中
国国情与迄今已实
现现代化的所有发达国家差别巨大,中国城市化
标准是否一定要像它们看齐?
21
世纪的城市化与
19
世纪、
20
世纪
的城市化标准是否应该
有些区别?
中国的特殊性是非常
鲜明的。一是人口太多。
13
亿人口,比目前北
美、欧洲和日本的人口总和还要多;二是可利用土地资源相对贫乏。
中国的陆地
面积虽然有
960
万平方公里,但现在科学条件下不可利
用、不适合人类居住的高原、大山、沙漠、戈壁和干旱地区占去三
分之
二以上,可利用的国土承受目前的人口数量已属负担过重,这
方面的条件比任何发达国家
都差;三是基本资源严重短缺,如人均
淡水不到世界四分之一,人均耕地不到三分之一。
这方面与发达国
家相比差得更远。鉴于城市人口对资源的消费量远远大于同样数量
的农村人口,我们在实施城市化的时候,是否必须充分考虑我国的
基本
资源与合理的城乡人口分布比例相适应的问题。既然我国基本
资源状况远不如发达国家,
我们城市化水平为什么定得同他们一样
高呢?如果
2020
p>
年我们有
15
亿人口,
60
%城市人口就是
9
亿;本
p>
世纪中人口
17
亿,那么
< br>75
%的城市人口就是
12.75
亿。这样巨大的
城市人口,要多少淡水、多少土地、多少能源、多少食物、多少住
p>
房、多少交通设施才能支持?
城市化,意味着生产和消费的更集中、更大规模、更社会化和更高
的生
产效率,意味着现代化。城市化程度越高,意味着现代化程度
越高。这是迄今为止对城市
化意义的认识。但近二三十年来,随着
科学技术的进步,特别是电脑和网络技术的发展和
日益普及,人们
对城市化的标准的认识正在发生某些新的变化。现在越来越多的人
可以在远离中心城市的地方甚至家里办公,同样可以获得信息、同
样可
以开会,同样可以交易,同样可以完成许许多多事情,而且大
大节省时间、减少大量物流
方面的消耗。再加上人们对环境质量要
求越来越高,不愿意都往污染严重的大城市里挤。
于是,一些发达
国家人群开始出现由大城市向小城市、由市中心区向市郊分散化的
趋向。而且这种趋向一点也不会降低现代化的程度。我们在
21
世纪
