Reference news, July 9 US media say Chinese environmental protection officials have increasingly criticized ineffective pollution control of the city.

According to the United States the New York Times, July 7, the latest initiative relating to water pollution, and air pollution and soil contamination and water pollution had reached hazardous levels in most parts of China.

The Ministry of environmental protection said it plans to publish water quality rankings. Department of environmental protection has in publishing air quality ranking is the ranking whereby ordinary people are aware of the surrounding Beijing, Hebei province coal-burning city smog, belong to the heavily polluted city.

Reports was issued last month by the Department of environmental protection after water quality ranking scheme of the draft, the Chinese news agency reported this week. Ministry of environmental protection said in a statement, feedback on draft as of Sunday.

The Ministry of environmental protection said: "participation in urban water quality rankings covering 31 provinces (cities, districts) 338 and above the city, ranking section (points) for the national water quality monitoring network provided for in section (points). "The Beijing, Tianjin and Chongqing municipalities and autonomous regions are also within the scope of the assessment.

The Ministry of environmental protection said the system of 21 indicators will be used to monitor metal, hazardous chemicals and other pollutants, thereby determining urban water quality index. The Ministry of environmental protection said it will be published monthly list of the 10 best and 10 worst cities.

Greenpeace Asia East Division based in Beijing responsible for harmful substances project of Jiang Zhuoshan said: "published cities can contribute to pressure Government to take responsible actions to improve water quality, it also forms a kind of competition among cities to generate power. ”

However, Jiang Zhuoshan said that the exposure draft can consider disclosing more information. For example, lists not only the 10 best and 10 worst cities, Ministry of environmental protection can also publish 21 indicators measured for each city.

Reports of widespread environmental pollution is one of the top concerns of ordinary Chinese. Senior leaders said China's determined "to declare war on pollution", government policies limiting coal in densely populated areas, Beijing has recently published several times in case of severe haze weather "red alert" alert.

In February 2013, the Ministry of environmental protection has issued 74 urban air quality, ranking it was published for the first time this kind of pollution. Average air quality ranking shows, always in many Chinese cities failed to meet government standards. Department of environmental protection issued in March 2014, figures show that in 2013, the 74 cities, only three air quality standards.

Reportedly, water pollution and soil contamination degree of concern than dirty air, but is equally if not more dangerous risks.

Advocate access to environmental transparency that creates large amounts of monitoring the water quality of the city far more difficult than monitoring air quality. Official air monitors can be set in different parts of the city to get the average value. He pointed out that, in relation to water quality, officials must choose carefully monitored near the city's rivers and lakes, as well as how to interpret surveillance data, thereby pollution levels make overall assessment.

美媒:中国将发布城市水质排名 每月评10优10劣 |水污染_新闻资讯

漫画：动真格 新华社发 朱慧卿 作

　　参考消息网7月9日报道 美媒称，中国环保官员越来越多地点名批评治污不力的城市。

　　据美国《纽约时报》网站7月7日报道，最新举措涉及水污染，与空气污染和土壤污染一样，中国大部分地区的水污染已经达到有害的程度。

　　环境保护部表示，它计划发布城市水质排名。环保部已经在发布城市空气质量排名，正是这个排名让普通老百姓得知北京周边的河北省燃煤城市就雾霾而言属于重污染城市。

　　报道称，环保部上月发布了水质排名计划的征求意见稿之后，中国各新闻机构本周进行了报道。环保部在公告中称，对征求意见稿的反馈截至本周日。

　　环保部称：“参与城市水环境质量排名范围包括全国31个省（市、区）的338个地级及以上城市，排名的断面（点位）为国家地表水环境质量监测网中规定的断面（点位）。”北京、重庆、天津等直辖市和自治区也在评估范围之内。

　　环保部表示，该制度将采用21项指标监测金属、有害化学物及其他污染物水平，由此确定城市水质指数。环保部说，它将每月公布10个最佳和10个最差城市名单。

　　设在北京的绿色和平组织东亚分部负责有害物质防治项目的江卓珊说：“公布城市排名可以向负有责任的市政府施压使其采取行动改善水质，它还在城市之间形成一种竞争从而产生动力。”

　　不过，江卓珊说，征求意见稿可以考虑公布更多的信息。比如，名单不必仅限于10个最佳和10个最差城市，环保部还可以发布每个城市的21项指标测量值。

　　报道称，普遍的环境污染是普通中国人最关心的问题之一。高层领导人表示中国下定决心“向污染宣战”，政府实施政策在人口密集地区限制燃煤，北京最近好几次在出现严重雾霾天气时发布“红色预警”提醒居民。

　　2013年2月，环保部发布了74个城市的空气质量排名，那是它首次发布这种污染排名。平均空气质量的排名显示，中国许多城市的始终未达到政府标准。环保部2014年3月发布的数字显示，在2013年，这74个城市中只有三个的空气质量达标。

　　报道称，水污染和土壤污染的受关注度不如污浊的空气，但即便不是更危险也是同样危险。

　　倡导环境政务透明公开的马军说，监测城市的水质远比监测空气质量要难。官方可以在城市的不同地方设置空气监测仪来获得平均值。他指出，就水质而言，官员们必须慎重选择监测城市附近的哪些河流和湖泊以及如何诠释监测数据，从而对污染水平做出总体评价。（编译/何金娥）
