Benzinpreise im Juli in China stark hochgesetzt. Einer unserer Profs läßt jetzt Auto in der Uni Tiefgarage und läuft jeden Morgen eine Stunde an den Campus, abends eine Stunde zurück. Macht schlank und spart auch noch die Garagenmiete - 500 RMB pro Monat! (am Campus frei...)

China might collect environment tax to curb pollution

According to Southern Daily in Shenzhen China considers an environmental tax as an answer to growing pollution problems. Southern Daily quoted Mao Rubai, chairman of the Environment and Resources Committee of the National People's Congress or parliament

"The country will gradually levy environment tax when conditions are ripe."

So far environmental costs or the use of resources are not being considered in Chinas tax regulation. China's sulphur dioxide emission in 2005 amounted to more than 25.5 million tons, 27 percent more than in 2000. A tenth of the countries arable land is polluted according to official figures.
