The practices in China, presented by a steel company, a synthetic fertilizer company and a cement company in Beijing, proved that cost-effective measures for energy saving, recycled resource utilization and waste minimization were both applicable and feasible for developing economies, which require shortterm returns from investments. Advanced technology transfer has become a “hot” topic in discussions related to the development of the CDM (clean development mechanism) or other “win-win” systems directed at combating global environmental threats. Bottom-up recycling practices were introduced during a seminar convened in Zhejiang in 2008. Bottle-to-bottle PET recycling in the Beijing area was also discussed, with emphasis on how it symbolized a new step for resource circulation in China.
