However, as the cities’ expanse, China’s urban population is growing rapidly, so the public health problem increase seriously, and it has become a big issue in China. Gong et al. (2012) argues that the largest human migration happened in China during the past 30 years, and the urban population grew from191 million in 1981 to 622 million in 2009—the rural-to-urban migration is the most important reason (p. 843).

China’s Water Shortages China has the biggest population in the world at the moment, however it only supplies 7% of the World’s water supply. In the Capital, Beijing, there are many reasons why there is such a substantial shortage. These reasons can be separated into human factors and physical factors. As you can see from Source 8, there is a massive divide between the South of China and the North of China. The North of China houses 40% of the population.
Economic Growth in China China and the United Kingdom are very different countries. Firstly, the UK has a population of 60 943 912, unlike China, which has a population vastly greater than the UK’s, it is 1 330 044 544. Furthermore, China has Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of 3 251 000 and the UK has a GDP of 2 773 000. China has experienced a huge amount of growth over the past few decades. This is shown by how there GDP is high, and the very large population.
Modernization of China and India GLT 1 111.6.1-11 Globalization has affected many non-western countries over the centuries both positively and negatively especially in China and India with the advancement in technology, changes in culture of the old generations and new generations, adaptation to growth, transportation, and employment. China and India have advanced tremendously over the last few decades in economic growth with China ranking second and India ranking third. During the middle of the twentieth century both China and India were consider among the poorest countries in the world. Prior to China globalizing in 1979, most of the county lived in severe poverty especially in rural areas, the average person did not live past forty, infectious disease was just about everywhere and economic growth was non-existent. In 1979, Xiaoping became the leader in China and reconstructed the government.
Problems of population growth in China Nowadays, China develops at full speed, and really becomes stronger and stronger. However, it also brings lots of problems that cannot easily be dealt with. Michael. K said “As the world's population surpassed 6 billion in October 1999, China's population represented more than 1/5 of this total (20.8%) — one out of every five people in the world lives in China. Today, China's population exceeds 14 billion, a number that continues to increase minute-by-minute on Beijing's official.”(2009) Unstoppable population growth has become a huge problem in China that we need to solve.
As shown on Figure 1 above, due to the economic recession the official poverty rate jumped by 2.6% between 2007 and 2010; likewise, the unemployment rate increased from 4.6% to 9.6%; yet the supplemental poverty measure remained at around 15.5% flat, mostly by virtue of the EITC (Hoynes, 2014:26). Smeeding, Phillips and O’Connor (2000) found that a large majority of EITC beneficiaries depend on the credit to pay for priority uses such as paying bills and make ends meet. Beverly (2002:260) argues that the EITC also provides a short term safety net for families experiencing shocks to earnings; Dowd and Horowitz (2011) found that more than 60% of the beneficiaries of the credit between 1989 and 2006 claimed the credit for only one or two years at a time (Cited in Charite, Dutta-Gupta & Marr, 2012:7). Denver resident and anti-poverty advocate Corrine Fowler found herself jobless and a single mother in 1997; she says “It really kept me from either becoming homeless or having to move in with my mother” (Phillips,
The last 10 years in China's economy may be summed up in two overwhelming facts which place all other economic data in context.”(John Ross, 2012).

The economics of China have been growing rapidly since the reform and opening up in 1978. Between 1978 and 2005, China's per capita GDP had grown from $153 to $1284, that is more than 8 folds increment. This economic reform has increased inequality in China dramatically. To large extent I agree the rapid economics development of china has been more of a threat than an opportunity for China’s traditional culture. Culture is made up of 3 major components; these include material aspect, which is more physical, such as buildings and architecture.
The United States of America is the world’s leading g economy. The country’s economy is also ranked as the fastest growing in the world courtesy of economic reforms introduced in the country in the year 1978. It has risen also to become the second largest importer of goods, and it is also recognized as the largest exporter of goods. China’s huge population has been quite instrumental in growing its economy. The population provides the much needed labor force that has propelled the country’s industrial and agricultural sector to great heights of productivity.
