full_text_status: public
abstract: This study deals with the contributions of rural to urban migration on the environmental degradation in the city of Beijing, China. The outcomes of this research show there is no direct relationship of rural to urban migration affecting the degradation of the environment. The process of urbanization and industrialization went very fast in Beijing; this led to the city dealing with a high degree of environmental degradation and other global concerns. The past two decades dealt with a large scale rural to urban migration which had a great influence on the economic growth and the quality of life indirectly. However, environmental factors are not just influenced by migrants, also urban local people contribute to the decreasing quality of the environment by, inter alia, consuming. This covers the complex interaction and relationships between the development of a region over time, the historical values, and the environmental issues that occurred.
