Chemicals management and environmental assessment of chemicals in China

摘要

As China has grown in economic strength and influence, it has also identified the need for new measures on management of the import/export of toxic chemicals and environmental management of hazardous chemicals. Responsible chemicals use and management cuts across industry and enterprise, national and international regulatory controls, scientific research and enquiry, and public participation. China has invested heavily in environmental research and monitoring and there is clear evidence of China's growing international leadership and influence on the research agenda - through publications in the scientific literature, and agenda-setting scientific meetings.
