Excerpt
Executive Summary: At present, China is encountering severe water shortages, resulting from both a large population and water pollution caused by rapid economic development with a minimal regard for environmental impacts. Although China significantly improved its water and wastewater infrastructure, with annual water supply at 549.7 billion cubic meters in 2002, there are still annual water shortages of 40 billion cubic meters. Accelerated urbanization and high-speed economic growth in China continue to aggravate the water shortage problem. The official municipal wastewater treatment rate was 39.9 percent at the end of 2002, which is far from adequate given China?s serious water pollution.
