Environmental policies development and citizens' consciousness

Building on a conclusion of relationship between the formation of environmental policies and the citizens' environment consciousness,this project has analyzed people's understanding of the environmental problems,people's expectations for the environmental improvement,and individual participation in the environmental improvement activities.It is shown that industrial pollution and natural-environment improvement in urban areas are mainly what the citizens in Hangzhou care about and expect.Most citizens would like to discipline themselves and be selfless so as to better the urban environment.However,their consciousness of providing ideas for the government and joining in collective environment-protective activities still needs guidance and arousal.
