　　人口與環(huán)境

　　計(jì)劃生育和環(huán)境保護(hù)是我國(guó)的基本國(guó)策，也是提高人民生活質(zhì)量的重要條件。我們要重點(diǎn)抓好農(nóng)村和流動(dòng)人口的計(jì)劃生育管理和服務(wù)，控制人口增長(zhǎng)。我們要加強(qiáng)優(yōu)生優(yōu)育工作，通過(guò)人口素質(zhì)。

　　Family planning and environmental protection are China’s basic state policies and vital to improving the quality of people’s lives. We should concentrate our efforts on the management of family planning and related services in rural areas and among the floating population so as to control population growth. We should improve prenatal and postnatal care and foster physical fitness among the population.

　　我們必須加強(qiáng)對(duì)耕地、水、樹(shù)林、草原、礦產(chǎn)、海洋、生物等資源的管理和保護(hù)，實(shí)行資源有償使用制度，促進(jìn)資源的節(jié)約與合理利用。我們要嚴(yán)格控制和治理污染，加快重點(diǎn)地區(qū)和重點(diǎn)流域污染的治理，公布大城市環(huán)境質(zhì)量監(jiān)測(cè)指標(biāo)。

　　We must tighten control over and protection of arable land, water, forests, grasslands, and mineral, sea and biological resources. We should institute a system of paid use of natural resources to ensure economical and rational uses. We should strictly deal with and control pollution and speed up pollution treatment in major regions and river valley. We should publish standards for monitoring environmental quality in large cities.

　　我國(guó)人口眾多，資源相對(duì)不足，經(jīng)濟(jì)規(guī)模越來(lái)越大，經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展與資源和環(huán)境的矛盾日益突出，粗放型的經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)方式難以為繼。我們必須正確處理發(fā)展經(jīng)濟(jì)同人口、資源、環(huán)境的關(guān)系，合理開(kāi)發(fā)和綜合利用資源。我們要努力保護(hù)和改善生態(tài)環(huán)境，使經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展既滿足當(dāng)代人的需要，又造福于子孫后代。

　　A country with a large population, relative insufficiency of natural resources and an expanding economy, China suffers an increasingly significant disparity between economic development on the one hand and natural resources and the environment on the other. It poses problems if we continue to maintain a merely quantitative and crude mode of development in our economic growth. We, therefore, must correctly handle the relationships between economic development on the one hand, and population growth, natural resources consumption and the environmental protection on the other. We should exploit our natural resources more rationally and make use of them in an integrated manner. We should do our best to protect and improve our ecological environment, so as to ensure that our economic development will not only meet the current needs of this generation, but benefit future generations.
