| China International Exhibition of Residential Envi |
Environmentally friendly household products will take the stage in Beijing next fall at an international exhibit. The China International Exhibition of Residential Environmental Science is scheduled for October. Sponsored by the Ministry of Science and Technology, the exhibition aims to encourage Chinese people and foreigners to promote technology exchange and trade of environmentally healthy products for residences. Sun Qijun, a division chief of the China Science and Technology Exchange Center said continuously improving standards in China have made it urgent for people to pay attention to their own environments. A fine living environment does not stop with beautiful interior decoration, elegant furniture and a full range of modern household appliances. It also stresses the use of harmless materials and products, Sun said. However, pollution produced by various household products account for about half of the city's pollution, according to the figures supplied by the center. Therefore, China made this issue among it key focal points. Sun said China must create modern, comfortable and pollution-free living environments for all citizens. |
