China's increasing population and rising food demand is fueling a boom in both rice and seafood production in the region. Ironically, the mangroves—home to wild shrimp—are being cleared to make room for commercial shrimp aquaculture.
人口增长以及随之而来的食物需求扩大使得该地区的水稻生产和海产品需求不断激增。具有讽刺意味的是,红树林做为野生虾类的家园,不断被开垦成为商业养殖虾类的场所。
China has 61 million acres of wetlands, which include swamps, mangroves, lagoons, river deltas, lakes, and coastal areas that collectively cover about 2.5 percent of the country.
中国湿地面积大约61英亩,包括沼泽、红树林、环礁湖、河流三角洲、湖泊以及沿海一些地区,总计为国土面积的2.5%。
