Probe International in the News

Probe International in UN report

Probe International is featured in the UN’s Independent Environmental Assessment for the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. The report addresses a range of concerns facing the capital city, including: air pollution, greenhouse gas emissions and public transportation.

Probe’s map of the Beijing Municipal Watershed, found on page 72 of the UNEP report, comes from it’s blockbuster report on the water crisis facing Beijing. See Probe International’s full report, Beijing’s Water Crisis: 1949-2008 Olympics for more background.

Take a look also at the ill-advised South-North Water Diversion infrastructure project the Chinese government has embarked on to solve the city’s water shortage.
