北京是祖国的首都,是历史文化名城,也是我们生活的地方;北京是快速发展的国际大都市,又是一个水资源严重紧缺的城市,人均水资源量不足300立方米,远远低于世界公认的人均1000立方米的缺水下限。尤其是从1999年到2006年,北京连续8年干旱,水资源短缺已成为制约北京社会经济发展的重要瓶颈。 Beijing is the capital of the motherland, a famous historical and cultural city, and a place where we live. Beijing is a rapidly developing international metropolis and a city with serious water shortage. Its per capita water resources are less than 300 cubic meters, far below the world Generally accepted per capita 1000 cubic meters of water shortage limit. Especially from 1999 to 2006, Beijing has suffered a series of drought and water shortages for eight consecutive years, which has become an important bottleneck that restricts Beijing’s social and economic development.
