BEIJING - The 2008 Olympic Games host city Beijing has seen enthusiasm among
citizens to solve the Chinese capital's environmental problems in a bid to
create a "Green Olympics".
Beijing Environmental Protection Bureau received 486 pieces of suggestions
since it launched a program in March urging Beijing citizens to give their
advice for environmental protection for their city, local newspaper Beijing
Youth Daily reported Monday.
The Bureau categorized the suggestions and sent them to respective offices to
study, said Zhang Baosen, official of Beijing environmental protection promotion
and education center.
"Those suggestions concerns many aspects such as air pollution, solid waste,
vehicle exhaust as well as promoting environmental protection awareness," said
Zhang.
The Bureau said they would respond those advice makers and some would get
reward for their valuable suggestions.
