In 1979 China passed environmental protection law for trial implementation.The 1982 contitution includes important environmental provisions.Based on the provisions many laws were enacted .Water pollution prevention and control law 1984,Air pollution and control law 1987are some of the remarkable laws .

1. China
Environmental &Energy
issues ,policies

2. Introduction
• Use of energy to run economic activities
results in environmental degradation .
• Use of energy from exhaustable resources will
lead to energy shortage.
• Solution lies in reducing the exhaustable
sources of eenrgy.
• Going for eco friendly methods of production
and consumption.

3. Cont...
• Promoting use of eco friendly technology in
production of goods and services.
• Increase use of solar energy to reduce the level
of pollution .
• Cultivate the habit of saving eenrgy among the
masses .

4. Environmental issues
• Three environmental issues faced by china:
• Air pollution
• Water pollution
• Co2 emission

5. Air pollution
• Air is the most polluted in china .
• Sulphur dioxide and soot are the major air
pollutants .
• Large use of coal by industrial boilers and
furnaces aggravates the problem of air
pollution.
• Transportation sector is another amjor source
of air pollution.

6. Water POllution
• Mercury released by coal fired plants leads to
water pollution.
• Ground water is polluted by smelters ,runoffs
from the factories.
• Heavy use of fertilizers also contaminate the
water.
• Cadmium and other metals present in
fertilizers turn water toxic.

7. Cont...
• Disposal of waste and other organic matter is
another major pollutant of water.
• An unabbated cutting of trees reduces
watersupply .
• Blue algae infestation has turned water in lakes
toxic.
• Besides pollution ,shortage of water in
shanghai ,beijing also adds to miseries of people .

8. Co2 Emmision
• C02 emmision results in climatic changes thus
leading to global warming
• China accounts for 24% of world's energy related
carbon emmision.
• China is non-Annex country on united nations
framework convention on climate change.
• China's policies aim at cutting energy
costs,reducing local pollution rather than reducing
carbon emmision for benifit of world.

9. Cont...
• Per capita carbon dioxide emmision from
fossil fuel combustion is 3.65tons (Statistics
from the International Energy Agency )
• China ranks 2nd
in the world behind US in
total energy consumption and co2
emmision.

10. Energy Consumption
• China ccounts for 9.8% of worlds energy
consumption (China country analysis brief)
• By 2025 china will be responsible for 14.8% of
world's energy consumption .
• Of the 40quadrillion Btu of total energuy
consumed ,64% is coal ,26%oil,7% hydro
electricity and 3% natural gas.
• Dependence on imported oil has enormously
increased over the time.

11. Laws for environment protection
• In 1979 China passed environmental protection
law for trial implementation
• The 1982 contitution includes important
environmental provisions
• Based on the provisions many laws were enacted .
• Water pollution prevention and control law
1984,Air pollution and control law 1987are some
of the remarkable laws .

12. Environmental policies
• On national level policies are formulated by
state environmental protection Administration
(SEPA )
• Role OF SEPA is to dissiminate national
environmental policy ,collect data and regulate
.
• Cleaner production promotion law was
enacted by chinese government in year 2002.

13. Cont...
• Under cleaner production promotion law
demonstration programs for pollution check
were carried out in ten major cities .
• Several river valley's were made priority areas
and massive pollution check drive was started .
• Lack of market based policy like taxing the
polluters is still half away.
•

14. Energy Saving policies
• To curb excessive use of energy ,some concrete
steps must be taken .
• Tightening the use of land for further
manufacturing activities ,credit supply will ensure
a decrease in energy consumption.
• Cancellation of preferential policies for industries
like low taxation ,low cost of land .
• Outmoded production methods to be eliminated.

15. Renewable energy
• Creation and use of renewable energy included
in the 11th
year plan of china.
• Offset the current use of coal with natural gas.
• Increase use of wind and photovoltaics for
electricity generation.
• Use of solar energy is increasing steadly in
both urban and rural areas of china.
