CHINA DREI SCHLUCHTEN STAUDAMM
A man stands on a ridge overlooking a tract of land washed away by recent landslides along the Yangtze river, in the eastern city of Nanjing 28 August 2002. China has sent one of the biggest delegations to the current UN Earth Summit in Johannesburg, and experts warn its own environmental problems -- notably land degradation, water contamination and air pollution -- are similarly vast, with the country's environmental crisis highlighted this summer by flood surges along the Yangtze River which have placed millions under threat throughout the centre and east of the country.
