北海市,因其得天独厚的自然资源与区位优势,被列入我国改革开放最早的14个沿海城市之一,这其中,也得益于较丰富的淡水资源,特别是低成本开发的地下水资源。在开放初期,它为当地政府节约了十分宝贵的资金,在北海的发展中,功不可没。但容易得来的“资源”,也带来了一些负面效应, Beihai City has been listed as one of the earliest 14 coastal cities in China because of its unique natural resources and geographical advantages. Among these, it is also benefiting from abundant freshwater resources, especially low-cost groundwater resources. In the early days of its opening up, it saved valuable funds for the local government and contributed to the development of the North Sea. However, the “resources” that are readily available also bring about some negative effects.
