Nonprofits in China » Rural Environmental NGOs come onto the stage

Nonprofits in China » Rural Environmental NGOs come onto the stage: "The China Environment Federation Secretariat announced that it will promote an environmental case in Jiang Yan, Jiangsu Province to the entire nation as a successful mode to address environmental issues.

In recent years, rural areas have witnessed rising environmental stress. Although the system of environmental law undergoes constant revision in China, some illegitimate enterprises have tried to hide in the relatively less informed and loosely controlled countryside. As a result, rural citizens have been sending spontaneous letter petitions to the authorities because of the rapidly deteriorating living environment."
