The Influence of Rural Ecological Environment Development by China's Industrialization Process

This article aims to solve the problem of heavy pollution load in rural ecological environment at present. This article elaborates on the relevant concepts and theories of rural industrialization and ecological environment protection, mainly using a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods to analyze the current situation of rural ecological environment pollution in the research area. The research results indicate that the current rural ecological environment pollution load in China is heavy and severe, especially the use of fertilizers, pesticides, agricultural plastic films, livestock and poultry breeding, rural life, and township enterprise production, which have caused varying degrees of harm to the regional rural ecological environment. Therefore, effective measures must be taken to achieve the organic combination of rural industrialization and ecological environment protection. This article provides guidance for promoting the optimization and upgrading of rural industrial structure, achieving a win-win situation of economic and ecological benefits.

An epidemiological survey on saturnism among children due to lead pollution released from township enterprise

To understand the current situations of saturnism and blood lead levels of children resided in village and circumjacent areas, and to know its relations with sex, age and other factors on children' s health as to providing some evidences for prevention and control. An epidemiological survey was conducted for finding out the pollution sources and for a better understanding of the surrounding environment. All 221 children under 14 years old, from the lead pollution villages and surrounding establishments were enrolled, and their blood lead levels were detected by graphite atomizer absorption spectrophotometer method. Symptoms of the saturnism were investigated through a standardized questionnaire. SPSS13.0 software was administrated for data analysis. High blood lead level identification rate was 66.06% (146/221), and saturnism rate 32.13% (71/221). The children's blood lead levels among group 1, group 2, group 3 in this village and jade factory were (161.20 +/- 32.94), (176.60 +/- 43.62), (258.00 +/-106.08) and (238.01 +/- 55.20) microg/L respectively and the significant differences were observed through Kruskal-Wallis test (chi2 = 51.84, df= 3, P<0. 01). The blood lead levels of children from group 3 in this village and the jade factory were higher than those of other two groups. No correlation was found between children's age and blood lead level (r = 0.10, P = 0.13). There was a significant difference in blood lead levels between boys and girls (t' = 3.83, P<0.01). With the children's blood lead levels rising, the occurrence rate of main saturnism symptoms was significantly increased. This survey suggested that the pollution source was a coarse lead smelter. The blood lead level should ke overwhelmingly increased among children who live nearby the higher level of lead blood, that living nearby the lead smeltery,might result in stautnism and negative effect on children's healthy.

Evolvement of urban spatial structure and main drives in Wuxi, China

With the quick development of urbanization, urban expansion has been paid more and more attention to by researchers from western countries and China. Here Wuxi City of China is selected as a case study. Located in the core-area of Changjiang (Yangtze) River Delta, as the sources of Chinese township enterprise, Wu culture, and national industry, Wuxi has experienced great change in the urban spatial structure, especially in the land use structure, and urban shape and scale. The ratio of industrial land was about one-third of the construction land in 2003. Residential and public infrastructure land had decreased a little from 1956 to 2003, but it remains to be the main construction land at present. Green land has increased at the highest speed due to the demand of sustainable development. After the reform and opening to the outside world, this kind of evolvement of urban spatial expansion is helpful for sustainable development. Economic development, transportation, and administrative planning are the main reasons for these changes. During different periods, the main drives are different. Economic development is the basic factor that influences urban expansion. Transportation influences urban evolvement in different times, but now the importance is not as great as 30 years ago, because administrative force plays an important function in urban planning of China and influences urban evolvement.

Entrepreneurship development: an innovative model to integrate women's participation in the modernisation of China

This paper describes a training and development programme model. The United National Industrial Development Organisation (UNIDO) initiated the programme, in collaboration with the All China Women's Federation and its training institutions. The purpose of this Training-of-Trainers Programme was to promote women's participation in the modernisation of China. The programme involved three phases in its implementation: Phase 1, the training of Chinese national experts by international experts; Phase 2, the trained national experts training township and village enterprise women entrepreneur/managers in a pilot test; and Phase 3, Chinese national experts training the national trainers. The expectation is for the programme to be disseminated into the provinces and subsequently into rural China.

Development of township enterprise and alleviation of the employment problem in rural China

AbstractIn contrast to the situation in western countries at the time of their industrialization, it has been and still is impossible for rural labour in China to move to the urban sector for employment. For this and other reasons, including shortage of arable land and population growth, lack of employment opportunities continues to be a serious problem in rural China. This article discusses the development of township enterprise in rural areas and its role in the alleviation of China's rural employment problem. It is suggested that the further development of township enterprise should be an important element of China's development strategy.
