1. 6. 1) SUSTAINABLE PRACTICE IN CHINA: Urban The green city planning is nationally not widespread; there are, however, good examples of this type of approach, as for example in the city of Shenzhen. GREEN AREA EQUAL TO 45% OF THE TOTAL (CHINESE) 10% OF MACHINE PARK IS ELECTRIC (CHINESE) GDP GROWTH OF 120% BETWEEN 2005 AND 2011 (CHINESE)

ENERGY AND WATER CONSUMPTION AMONG THE LOWEST IN CHINA (CHINESE) 324 DAYS OF CLEAN AIR (RELATIVE TO 2013) (CHINESE) DEVELOPMENT OF URBAN FARMING (CHINESE)

1. 6. 2) SUSTAINABLE PRACTICE IN CHINA: Building (Dry construction technology) Green building makes up a very small proportion of China’s construction industry, but government targets may give sustainable building a boost over the next five years. REDUCTION OF POLLUTION BUILDING TIME SHORTED BY 10 % PREFABRICATION SYSTEM WORKFORCE REDUCED BY 30 %

1. 7 TRENDS IN WELLNESS TOURISM PERSPECTIVES & WORLD DATA

2. 1) MASSIVE URBANIZATION OF BIG CITIES POLLUTION REDUCTION GOALS By 2030 China will reach a higher urbanization rate of 60%; about 16 million rural residents will move into new or existing urban areas. Huge infrastructure projects and overpopulation consequently causing air and natural resources pollution problems. OVER 150 INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT ZONES HAVE BECOME RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS STATE CONSTRUCTION PROJECT OF 20 NEW CITIES EVERY YEAR BETWEEN 2010 AND 2030 • OVERCROWDING • CHINESE • INCREASE OF WHEEL TRANSPORTATION • CHINESE • INCREASE HEATING NEEDS • CHINESE POLLUTION (CHINESE)

CONSTRUCTION OF 11 MILLION UNITS EVERY YEAR • OVERCROWDING • CHINESE • INCREASE OF WHEEL TRANSPORTATION • CHINESE • INCREASE HEATING NEEDS • CHINESE CONSTRUCTION OF 10/15 NEW RESIDENTIAL AREAS EVERY YEAR POLLUTION (CHINESE)

In the fight against pollution, 31 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions of China signed with the Ministry of Environment Protection from a White Paper on Environmental Responsibility with the goal of reducing emissions by between 5% and 25%. ELIMINATION OF OUTDATED INDUSTRIAL STRUCTURES IMPROVING CHECKS ON BOILERS, VEHICLES, ETC INCREASED PRODUCTION AND USE OF RENEWABLE ENERGIES COLLABORATION WITH COUNTRIES WITH EXTENSIVE KNOWLEDGE OF SUSTAINABILITY COAL CONSUMPTION UNDER THE 65% OF THE TOTAL WITH REDUCTION OF PM 2. 5 LEVELS (CHINESE CHINESE)

2. 2) RURAL AREAS DROP GROWTH & DEVELOPMENT→ RURAL AND HINTERLAND SUSTAINABLE STRATEGIES The majority of China's population now lives in cities. According to a statistical report by Shanghai Urban Planning and Design Research Institute in 2014: More than 60% of the Chinese rural population in the villages is made up of migrants 70% of these residing in the suburb areas nearer to the Central City

2. 2) RURAL AREAS DROP GROWTH & DEVELOPMENT→ RURAL AND HINTERLAND SUSTAINABLE STRATEGIES The majority of China's population now lives in cities. According to a statistical report by Shanghai Urban Planning and Design Research Institute in 2014: The remaining 30% residing in suburb areas much further away from the Central City. Less than 20% of the working population residing in the suburbs is involved in agricultural activities.

A solution for this problem could be a return to rural areas through the development of small smart towns & eco-villages. MANAGEMENT OF THE RESOURCES LIMIT THE SOIL CONSUMPTION ENHANCEMENT OF THE VALUE OF LANDSCAPE FIELD OF APPLICATION AND ACTIONS PRODUCTION AND DISTRIBUTION OF GREEN ENERGY MANAGEMENT OF THE HYDRIC RESOURCES

2. 3 PRC MASSIVE OVERPRODUCTION PROBLEMS → CHINA’S GLOBAL SUSTAINABLE ECONOMIC STRATEGY Overproduction has been a problem for many years now, affecting PRC economy Steel, Aluminum, Cement, Refining, Glass and Paper industries are the most affected Many countries are carrying out protectionist policies against China

China’s government actions against overproduction ACTIONS TAKEN PRICE REFORM FOR WATER AND ELECTRICITY (2013, 3 RD PLENUM) PROGRESSIVE ELECTRICITY PRICING FOR ALUMINUM INDUSTRIES STEEL, CEMENT, ALUMINUM, GLASS AND SHIPBUILDING SECTORS ARE CONTROLLED DEEP REFORMS TO REDUCE AND PREVENT EXCESS PRODUCTIONS

SUGGESTIONS CONTROL INDUSTRY GROWTH IN KEY SECTORS ENCOURAGE NEW INNOVATIVE PLANTS AND UPGRADE EXISTENT PROMOTE ENVIRONMENTALLY SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTION GIVE THE MARKET MORE POWER WHILE IMPROVING FINANCIAL SUPERVISION
