中国经济的“阿基米德支点”

资源是经济发展的“阿基米德支点”：世界十大经济国每年能源的生产占全球的６２．１％，消费为７１．０％。重要矿产资源的生产多排在世界前１０名生产国之，外面是消费则多排在１０名之内，且对这些矿产资源的消费量多在９５％以上。

THE ARCHIMEDESIAN FULCRUM" OF THE CHINESE ECONOMY

Resources are "the Archimedesian Fulcrum" of economic development. The top ten economic countries in the world produce only 62. 1 % of the global energy resources while consuming 71. 0 % of them. The most important mineral producers are those not in the top ten while the consumers are mainly the top ten and their consumption in mineral resources is over 95%. The development of the Chinese e-conomy will face the bottle-neck of natural resources in the near future. Against a background of the worldwide shortage of energy and other natural resources, it would be like "levering the earth up" for China to keep her economic growth rate at 5% annually, considering her large size of population and shortage of natural resources.
