【新唐人2013年05月13日讯】近期，中国大陆连续爆发环保抗争游行。仅上海松江区，继5月1号、4号民众聚会抗议在当地兴建电池厂之后，周六（11号）又有数千上海民众再次走上街头游行，抗议兴建电池厂。当局出动大批警力驱逐人群，现场有多人被抓。下面请看报导。
11号，上海松江区爆发针对汽车锂电池厂的第3次游行，大批民众聚集到松江区中山路，高举“我爱松江，拒绝污染”的横幅进行抗议。
有外媒报导说，现场大约有上千民众，但参与抗议的松江区居民认为﹕实际人数远高于此。
参与抗议的上海松江区居民李先生：“昨天应该是将近两、三千人，整个一个十字路口全部都给围住了。应该是持续了5个多小时，那么警察就强制性把人从马路中间推开了，有人反应大一点，就强制性把人抓走。”
参与抗议的松江区居民李先生介绍说，当局出动了大批警力对人群进行驱逐，现场有很多人被警察抓走。
李先生：“警察，我估计至少有两、三百个。说句内心的话，作为我来讲，觉得这些警察态度非常差的。就是说话等都是很难听的，态度非常恶劣的。”
“英国广播公司”《BBC》中文网报导，民众抗议兴建的电池厂属于“上海国轩”新能源项目，主要从事磷酸铁锂电池及电源管理系统的研发、生产和销售，原定落户上海松江。当地居民担心电池厂排放的废水废气，会影响他们的居住环境和健康。
面对民众的抗议，4月29号，上海市松江区政府曾通过官方微博宣布，将取消电池厂中可能带来污染的生产环节，并宣称工厂生产是安全的。但官方这一说法并没有消除民众的担忧，进入5月以来，松江居民已经进行3次大规模的集会抗议。
上海松江区居民王女士：“我们担心影响下一代了，影响小孩了。我们都老了，无所谓的，影响小孩的。这个单位就像是个定时炸弹一样放在这里。”
近年来，中国大陆民众对工业污染和环境保护越来越敏感，抗议事件接连不断。就在5月4号，昆明数千民众走上街头，抗议当地的一个炼油厂项目。去年7月，江苏南通启东市更有数万愤怒的民众冲进市政府，抗议“日本王子纸业”向启东附近海域排污。但当局秋后算账，今年2月其中16名示威者被判刑。
北京维权人士胡佳：“这种不断的抗议只能是代表两种方面。第一，政府不作为。它根本就是在推延，根本就不做出有效的反馈。它就想把这件事情拖下去，它把那些有诉求的百姓各个击破。”
北京维权人士胡佳谈到，这种不断抗议还表明，中国的老百姓已经被这些事情逼得忍无可忍、毫无退路。
胡佳：“哪个环境问题它后来是真正给你解决了？它不是那样的体制。因为在上这些巨额项目的过程中，它已经积累了所谓政绩，很多的贪污贿赂已经中饱私囊，所以官员是不肯放弃的。”
胡佳强调，环保问题事关每一个人，所以这类环保抗争社会影响面很大，最能调动公民的觉醒和参与。大陆民众应该在这一抗争上同仇敌忾、互相支援，这样才能维护所有人的公民权利。

Shanghai Residents Oppose Battery Factory Plans
Recently, anti-pollution protests have been frequent in China. Protests occurred on May 1 and May 4. Shanghai residents also protested on Saturday, May 11. Thousands of protesters voiced their opposition against plans for a battery factory. Local authorities dispatched police, arresting many protestors. The following is our report.
A third protest against an automobile lithium battery factory in Songjiang District, Shanghai, took place on May 11. Protestors gathered on Zhongshan Road, Songjiang District with banners stating, “I love Songjiang and oppose pollution.”
Around a thousand of protestors reportedly participated in the event. A local resident believed the number of participants was far more than that.
Mr. Lee, Songjiang District protestor: “There were about two thousand to three thousand protestors. The whole intersection was occupied for more than 5 hours. The police forcibly pushed the people away from the roads. People who resisted were taken away.”
Mr. Lee was one of the participating protestors. He explained that police were dispatched to dispel the protestors. Many were arrested.
Mr. Lee: “I would say there were about two hundred to three hundred police. To me, quite frankly, those police were very bad. Their words were cruel and their attitudes were very bad.”
BBC Chinese reports indicated that people were protesting against an energy plan of Hefei Guoxuan High-tech Power Energy Co Ltd. It is planned for the factory conduct R&D, production and sales of lithium battery and power management systems. This will take place in Songjiang, Shanghai. Local residents were worried about environmental and health impacts of effluent discharge.
Earlier, Songjiang District government claimed the production line associated with pollution will be stopped. It declared safety of the production process through the official microblog on April 29. It did not ease concerns. Since May, local residents conducted three protests.
Ms. Wang, Songjiang District resident: “We are concerned for the next generation. We are getting old, but we are worried for the impact on the children. That factory is just like a time bomb.”
Protests in China are frequent these years. This is in conjunction with increasing awareness of pollution issues, and environmental protection. Thousands of protestors gathered in Kunming on May 4, voicing concerns over a local refinery project. Last July, tens of thousands of angry residents of Nantong, Jiangsu stormed into Qidong city hall. They were protesting over sewage released by Japan's Oji Paper. 16 demonstrators were sentenced in February.
Hu Jia, Beijing activist: “The endless protests demonstrate two aspects. Firstly, the Government doesn't do its job. It simply ignores it, and has no effective solution. It keeps things dragging on, and attacks protestors one by one.”
Beijing activist Hu Jia believes the endless protests also show that people cannot tolerate it any more.
Hu Jia: “Has it resolved any particular environmental issues? That is not a part of its system. So-called achievements of these projects have accumulated a lot of corruption and bribery. None of the officials will give up on those profits.”
Hu Jia stresses that environmental issues concern everyone and have great social impact. People will be mobilized quickly. People should support
each other over these issues, to protect their own civil rights.
