Development of Projects for the Prevention and Control of Groundwater Pollution in Rural China-A Brief Viewpoint

Abstract

Mingxuan Cai, Wenbing Tan and Beidou Xi

Groundwater pollution has become an issue of great concern in rural China. Consequently, a series of policies to control groundwater pollution and improve the groundwater quality have been implemented in China. However, these policies rarely provided suggestions on how to manage and protect groundwater in rural areas. In this paper, we illustrate many consequences of groundwater pollution in rural China, and suggest that environmental researchers need to work out a set of solutions for tackling the growing problem of groundwater pollution in rural China. Several viewpoints are suggested to be taken into consideration at least when formulating projects for the prevention and control of rural groundwater pollution in the future.
