Urbanization and Environmental Protection Nowadays, the problem of environment is becoming increasingly serious in the society because of urbanization development. Therefore there are many people believe that we have to stop developing urbanization to prevent from environment keep becoming worse, while others think we can not do that because our society need to develop so that we can live in a better way。 In my opinion, I am convinced that we can not only develop urbanization, but protect our environment. It is a common sense that development of urbanization can bring us benefits, such as wealth and technology. only in this way can our living quality promoted。 For instance, many equipments and machines are the outcome of technology by developing urbanization. In addition, the situation that there are a large amount of people who own cars in recent year, which makes local residents' life more convenient. The economy improves quickly and we become wealthier just because of city development. People can accomplish business with each other without face to face, which promotes the efficiency for traders by development of technology。 When the holiday coming, many people will travel to other famous place to relax by planes or trains, which is the result of urbanization. It provides convenience and relaxation to people and make people’s life fill with various entertainment。 It might be better to reach a certain level of urbanization before the high GDP growth associated with the increase of the share of tertiary industry( Makoto Chikaraishi, 2013). If we hinder the development of urbanization on purpose, our daily life will become inconvenient and boring without these advanced products。 On the other hand, environmental pollution, such as wastewater and exhaust gas, is the matter of necessity of urbanization。 It is obvious that industry can result in much pollution, which can harm city dwellers’ health significantly and cause various illness to them. For example, the factory of producing computers will produce more wastage with producing machines. The wastage can be wastewater discharge or exhaust gas emission, which definitely can lead to pollute environment. The wastewater can pollute the river, which means that it can kill all kinds of animals that live in the river。 Exhaust gas not only indicates the gas from factory, but the gas from cars. With the increase numbers of cars in the city, the exhaust gas has became a serious problem. They are the main reason for air pollution, which can result in acid rain and global warming. In power plants and combined heat and power plants, fossil fuel combustion results in emitting to the atmosphere first of all SO 2, NO x, CO, particulate matter, greenhouse gases for instance N 2 O and CO 2 (Eugeniusz Mokrzycki, 2007)。 It is true that urbanization will harm environment. While, I do believe that we can keep a balance between develop urbanization and protect environment. First, manufacturers should have a strong awareness of protecting environment. It is an effective way to solve problem from the source. If they pay more attention to environment rather than making more profit, they can take some measures to reduce or eliminate the pollution after producing products. What’s more, I think governments can do some contribution to environment, which means that they can commit more funds to industries so that they can solve the pollution problems further. Governments can also enact a law that factories have to deal with their wastage in a reasonable and they can check some industries' implementation of the results randomly. I think this system with supervision can be an efficient way to prevent environmental pollution. Increased regulatory attention in controlling pollutants has encouraged the development of water quality trading programs over the past several decades。 These trading programs could provide the mechanisms to cost‐effectively achieve water quality objectives (Juliana Corrales, 2013)。 Besides, We can see that starting to implement a policy that drivers can not drive every day but in some special day or time due to their cars’ numbers in China, which indicates that governments have already done something meaningful to protect environment。 In my opinion, developing urbanization and protecting environment, we can do them both。 Urbanization can enrich our life and make our life more convenient, but we can not ignore environment。 We have to balance them in a suitable way so that we can promote urbanization and make environment better because environment is important for human's sustainable development。 Bibliography: Chikaraishi.
