Urban Health

Ensuring a liveable urban environment is a priority in China's rapid urban development. More than 450 million of China’s 1.3 billion population are now living in urban areas where over 70 percent of China’s gross domestic product (GDP) are generated, and where the environmental impacts of concentrated human activities are felt the most. Air pollution is perhaps the most visible environment problem in China's urban life. High ambient concentrations of ground level emissions cast a hazy veil to the urban landscape and cause alarming damage to public health.

A recent survey found that two out of three cities in China failed to meet the residential ambient air quality standard, resulting in large population exposure to health risks such as chronic bronchitis, pulmonary heart disease, and lung cancer. Respiratory diseases are a leading cause of premature deaths in China.

In this session we will present why environmental monitoring is so important to China, and professional local experts will share their valuable insights with you.
