The beautiful Li River is one of the most well-known tourist destinations in Guangxi,attracting millions of domestic and foreign
visitors each year. However, with the growth in tourism, volume of tourists, local population,as well as the number of commercial
and industrial enterprises, water quality in the Li River has suffered greatly,ending up with more garbage and chemicals in the
river and causing a frequent decrease in the number of fish species.
Finally, A comprehensive initiative of raising environmental awareness and a series of urgent steps have been started to
restore the river's original beauty. Dozens of polluting enterprises have been closed or moved.The government set up strict
regulations regarding further industrial development,tour boat routes and garbage disposal methods. Meanwhile, they have started
to carry out inspections regularly and fine tourist organisations for abuses. With such campaigns in effect,China's waterways are
heading towards a clean and sustainable future. It is believed that the beauty of the Li River will be preserved for future
generations.
减少漓江水污染
美丽的漓江是广西最著名的旅游目的地之一,它每年吸引数以百万计的国内外游客。然而,随着旅游业的发展,游
客量的增长,当地人口迅速增长,以及商业和工业企业的数量增加,漓江的水质遭到了严重破坏, 导致河中垃圾和化学物
质的增加,最终导致鱼类物种数量日益减少。
最终,为恢复河流的原貌,一项全面的提高环境意识的倡议及一系列的紧急措施被启动。许多污染企业被关闭或搬
迁;政府制定了关于进一步发展工业的严格章程和游船路线以及垃圾处理方法的规定。与此同时,他们开始定期进行检
查,并对滥用职权的旅游组织进行罚款。随着这些行动的生效,中国的水资源正朝着洁净的、可持续发展的未来迈进。
人们相信漓江的美景将世代留存下去。
