Development Direction and Focus of the Department
The scarcity of natural resources and the worsening of environmental quality are universal phenomena caused by modernization in countries around the world. Over the past few decades, our country's economic growth has been extremely rapid, and we are about to enter the ranks of developed countries. Economic growth has greatly improved the living standards of the people and laid a favorable foundation for modern capital accumulation. However, it has also caused environmental disasters, severely affecting the living space of the people. Both the government and the public attach great importance to this issue and have made many efforts to solve environmental problems. Environmental problems are phenomena that transcend multiple media (commonly known as land, sea, air, etc.) and cannot be separated one by one. For example, air pollutants from smelting plants, after being dispersed in the atmosphere, cause pollution of soil, groundwater, and surface water, thereby affecting the ecological environment and the entire food chain. Water pollution can also form air pollution under the influence of various climatic factors.
