China, the United States environment watchdogs and the Asian Development
Bank (ADB) signed a "Statement of Cooperation" on Friday to improve
China's environment and public health.
The cooperation aims to explore new ways to enhance China's sustainable
economic development, protect the environment and upgrade its public
health and environment quality via policy reform, system reconstruction
and human resource development, according to the SEPA, without going into
the specifics.
China's economy has exploded over the past two decades but the rapid
growth has caused crippling environmental damage, mainly due to local
governments turning a blind eye to environmental regulations.
