China has alot to offer the global world. Whether one is in search of some rich culture that can be found through their exciting Spring and New Year Festivals, the diversity in their religious beliefs, or the great historical landmarks such as the Great Wall- it is a country that can offer something for everyone. There are many different dynamics in China, from rural farm areas where there is no running water, to highly industrialized cities, China is considered to be a fascinating civilization for demographers today. China has the largest population in the world. As a result, the government inforced the One Child Policy law which prohibits females from having more than one child. Because of this China contains a rapidly aging population that is of great concern. Demographers predict that the population of elderly are likely to increase drastically in China by the year 2050. China is also the world's fastest growing economy and will to continue to grow in the future. However great of an accomplishment this may be, many of the factory jobs in China contribute to high amounts of environmental pollution- causing illness among the people of this country. China's dispersment of pollution is so great that other countries such as the United States are affected. Though China has its problems like all countries, globally China is one of the hardest working countries in the world.

China's GDP
Since economic reforms in 1979 China has become one of the world's fastest growing economies. Many economist speculate that china could become the world's largetst economic superpower.
We “Ann Geraghty, Corey Rogers,and Deante Penny” have formed this blog for our class project in Population and Society.
Our goal is to inform the viewers of this blog about the interesting issues and aspects of China. Our main focus will be on the demographics, politics, environment pollution, poverty, working conditions, and the culture of China. We have five major issues facing China that we will address in this blog. In addition, we also have predicted future issues that will affect China. We plan to offer a proposal on how to remedy these problems so that China can continue to grow and succeed as one of the world’s fastest growing economies.
