| Description: | The main source of current Asian economic vibrancy is a combination of urban-industrial led development that heavily rely on intensive but unsustainable exploitation of natural resources in particular energy, water, soil and land. If the rate of Asian growth and environmental deterioration is debatable, the direction of change is not. Looking at the numbers, it is difficult not to see that the world's environmental future will be determined by what happen in rapidly industrialising Asia. |
