China is being encouraged to redouble its efforts to improve its
environment so that its sudden economic growth can be sustainable.
The call comes from the Organization for Economic Co-operation and
Development (OECD), which says it shares widespread concerns about
China’s worsening environment. The OECD wants state and territorial
governments in the country to beef up their enforcement of
environmental policies and to increase and diversify public and private
sources of environmental finance.
The OECD reminds the Beijing government that improving environmental
policies would benefit China and offer a positive example to other
countries.
