A comparison of waste-reduction practices and new environmental paradigm of rural and urban Chinese citizens
Article Abstract:
Research indicates that both urban and rural populations in China are already participating in waste separation to obtain redemption values, suggesting that government policy should focus not on the waste separation process but rather on promoting the environmental goals achieved through this process. The government should also ensure and maintain a viable recyclables market.
