What does the Beijing Organizing Committee for the Olympic Games plan to do to solve the problems caused by car boom?
China’s car boom is presenting the country of 1.3 billion with a dilemma.
The Beijing Organizing Committee for the Olympic Games, for instance, is experimenting with a plan to limit the number of vehicles entering the city during the two-week sports extravaganza next summer by using odd-and even-numbered license plates. Traffic gridlock and air pollution have been haunting organizers. International Olympic Committee President Jacques Rogge even hinted at the possibility of rescheduling some endurance events if air quality doesn’t improve. The country’s car population has been growing due to an emerging middle class that desires personal mobility. Already, China has become the world’s second largest consumer of auto- mobiles and the third biggest maker of automobiles.
We’ve been living through times of plenty in recent decades, but no more. World grain sup- plies are low, there’s just forty days’ worth in stock and the long-term future looks bleak. Our demand for foods predicted to rise 50% by 2030. The statistics are startling. The world’s population is set to explode from over 6 billion now to 9 billion by 2050. The increase is mainly in the developing world.
In countries like China and India, an economic boom is increasing their wealth and dramatically altering the traditional diet. New western habits are taking hold, the McDonald’s wave becoming a familiar sight in unexpected places. More meat and dairy products require more land and water. All the ingredients are there for a future food crisis. And it’s the first priority of the UK’s new chief science adviser.
