For the record, I am sticking with my claim that the simultaneous degradation of air quality, water quality, water supply, food safety, soil quality, and other environment-related variables is the main challenge to China's continued development.

The air that people breathe in many Chinese cities has become dangerously polluted. Their food supply is subject to constant contamination scandals. Now it appears that not merely stagnant ponds but the water people draw from deep underground is already tainted.

I think one of the attractions to the Grand Rapids area is water quality.

It's really frustrating that Richard Perez is more concerned about being sued than he is about the water quality of our city.

We are very picky about the quality of water we use, so if we were not happy with the quality, we would not accept the water.

Water quality standards go up every two years, ... More than anything, fresh water is the key.
