摘要
香港的环境资源非常丰富,陆地面积1098平方公里,其中40%的土地列入郊野公园范围,占地率远高于任何国家或地区的保护区.郊野公园在获得良好保护的同时,更为香港提供了一个优良的自然环境,米埔后海湾湿地为亚洲最大,被列入国际重要湿地,每年超过2万只候鸟在此过冬.但是,香港面积小人口多,经济活动极为频繁,给香港造成了严峻的环境压力,全港总人口680万,平均人口密度6300人/km2,按已发展地区面积仅占全港面积17%计,平均人口密度超过36000人/km2.2003年人均生产总值约19万港元,全年建造工程开支约674.5亿港元,平均每日总行车里程达3000万公里,每日产生废物总量亦高达2万吨.在这个高速运转的社会中,要保证空气的清新、环境的洁净需要有一整套行之有效的环境保护政策、法例及措施.香港在经过数十年的努力,逐步建立起了一套较为完善的制度,使香港的自然与环境得到了有效的保护,为社会经济的持续发展奠定了良好的基础.
Hong Kong is very rich in its environmental resources, the area of land is 1098 km2, 40% of it is listed in the range of outskirts parks, the occupation rate of land is much higher than any other countries or areas. The outskirts parks are not only protected well, but also offer a fine natural environment for Hong Kong people. The wetland behind Mi Pu bay is the largest in Asia, and listed in the international important wetlands, over 20,000 migratory birds stay here in winter season every year. However, in this fast-growing society, it needs a set of effective environmental policies, laws and measures in order to guarantee clean air and sound environment. Hong Kong has set up a good set of systems in the past ten years, which made a great progress on nature and environment protection, and made a fundamentally important base for Hong Kong's sustainable development of the society.
