Beijing has imposed new limits on the expansion of polluting and resource-intensive industries, Reuters reported. In a list of restrictions published on its website late on Friday, the municipal government said it would ban the further expansion of a wide range of industries, including food processing, textiles, construction materials, paper making, chemicals and oil refining. It said in an accompanying statement that the list had been drawn up to serve the capital’s plans to restructure its economy and promote integrated development with the neighboring regions of Hebei and Tianjin.
