developing countries, a million people die from urban air pollution and twice
that number from exposure to stove smoke inside their homes. Another 3 million
unfortunates die prematurely (过早的) every year from water-related diseases. All told,
premature deaths and illnesses arising from environmental factors account for
about a fifth of all diseases in poor countries, bigger than any other
preventable factor, including malnutrition.
The link
between environment and poverty is central to that great race for
sustainability. It is a pity, then, that several powerful fallacies (谬论) keep getting in the way of
sensible debate. One popular myth is that trade and economic growth make poor
countries' environmental problems worse: Growth, it is said, brings with it
urbanization, higher energy consumption and industrialization —all factors that
contribute to pollution and pose health risks.
Another
common view is that poor countries should pollute now and clean up later.
Certainly poor countries should not be made to adopt American or European
environmental standards. But there is evidence to suggest that poor countries
can and should try to tackle some environmental problems now, rather than wait
till they have become richer.
One
powerful—and until recently ignored—weapon in the fight for a better
environment is local people. Much academic research has shown that the poor are
often victims of resource depletion (损耗) : it tends to be rich locals or outsiders who are responsible for the worst exploitation
(开发). Local people
usually have a better knowledge of local ecological conditions than experts in
faraway capitals, as well as a direct interest in improving the quality of life
in their village.
