Analysis on the Environment Risk of the Resource Exhausted Mining Cities

Abstract:

Due to the objective orientation and background, the development of mining cities has different characteristics compared with the other cities. The mining cities all will face the problems such as resource exhaustion, industry transformation and environment recovery, etc. Through the analysis of a typical example, its realized that many resource exhausted mining cities in our country have great environmental risks such as air pollution, water resource damage, earth degeneration and geological disasters. Scientific and effective measures should be taken to avoid the environmental risk and promote the sustainable development of the resource exhausted mining cities.
