Chinese government departments of tax and environment will try to work out a taxation plan to promote environmental protection in 2008 and the plans are now under approval.

The environment tax, one of the key taxation policies China plans to put forward this year, is going through careful study and approval by the Ministry of Finance, State Administration of Taxation and State Environmental Protection Administration.

Two researchers with the Ministry of Finance Sun Gang and Xu Wen proposed three plans of  collecting environment tax in their report published in November of 2007, according to Beijing-based Caijing Magazine.

Based on the principle of “pay according to profits”, the first plan suggests government collect tax from companies in accordance with how much they earn from the products which consume (消费) resources or pollute the environment, said Dr. Xu Wen. He said this kind of general taxation will be put into use in all the companies since almost all the products consume resources.

According to the second plan, companies would pay tax according to how much pollutant they have discharged, said Xu, adding that the tax will target the discharge of sulfur(硫) or sulphide,(硫化氢) carbon dioxide, polluted water, solid waste and other forms of pollutant.

He said that the third plan would ask consumers of potentially polluting products, such as fossil fuel(矿物燃料), ozone-consuming(消耗臭氧) products, fertilizer and pesticide(农药), to pay tax.

Meanwhile, the Ministry of Finance said it might be a more pressing task for them to raise the resource and consumption tax to give more consideration to environmental protection while expanding the current taxation system and adding new kinds of tax. Besides the plan for environment tax, the country has already adopted the law of environment protection and other regulations and is encouraging civil companies to introduce more environment-friendly technology and production models.

The public awareness of and participation in environment protection is also very important  in this period of time, when China is trying to adopt a scientific and sustainable mode of development, the newspaper said.

To Chinese immigrants, in the mid-1800s, California was “The Land of the Golden Mountain.” In their homeland they had heard the words, “There’s gold in California.” They sailed 7,000miles to join the gold rush and strike it rich. Between 1849 and 1882, more than 30,000 Chinese came to California. Most were men. They had been farmers in China. They came here to be miners and laborers. They ended up doing many other jobs, too.

Like many other immigrants, they did not plan to stay in America. They came because of their ties to their homeland and their families. They planned to return to China with their fortunes and help their families.

Only a few Chinese gold miners struck it rich. Most picked over the areas that had been mined already. But still, white miners resented the Chinese. Slowly, they drove the “yellow peril” from the mining camps.

By the end of the 1850s, many Chinese returned home. Those who stayed found other jobs.

Few women had come west in the gold rush. The Chinese saw a good business opportunity. They began doing the jobs women would have done. Many became house servants. Many more opened  laundries.

The Chinese opened restaurants. Chop suey and show mein are popular Chinese-American dishes. The Chinese probably created these dishes to serve to the white miners.

Other Chinese became fishermen, farmers, and even cigar makers.
