Li River is one of the most beautiful and popular river landscape in China. It
is over 100 miles long and is surrounded by the famous karst mountain formations.
What do you think might have caused water pollution in the Li River?
Did you know the Li River had been polluted?
As the Li River is very popular with tourists, I think the pollution
may have been caused by tourists and tour boats on the river.
Read the report and then answer the questions.
1.What were some of the negative effects on the Li River as a result of the growth in tourism?

Skimming
Negative effects from the growth of tourism on the Li River include garbage being thrown by tourists and kitchens on tour boats dumping cooking oil into the river. Because of the success of tourism, the population and number of enterprises also rose, meaning there was more waste going into the river.
2. What measures have been taken to improve the Li River’s water quality?
3. What is the “River Chief System”?
Waste water treatment, household waste collection and transport facilities have been improved. Dozens of polluting businesses were moved or closed. New rules about waste disposal and fines for abusers were introduced. Authorities used the media to spread awareness of the issue.
The "River Chief System" holds senior officials responsible for reducing water pollution.
