Vice-premier urges greater public input for better quality of life
BEIJING - 2011-12-21 - A balance between development and the environment is essential, Vice-Premier Li Keqiang said on Tuesday.
"Providing basic environmental quality for its people is an essential public service for any government. It is necessary to improve the quality of life and provide a favorable environment with clear water, blue skies and uncontaminated soil," Li told a national conference on environmental protection in Beijing which was attended by provincial governors and ministers.
