Foodmile has been given to distance food travels from where it is grown or raised to where it is ultimately purchased by the consumer or end-user. So, what if we bought more food that was produced and distributed in local and regional food systems? We could help reduce foodmiles, in turn benefiting our environment and local economy.

Paper 2 03/LQ 11
Describle the relationship betwwen transport routs and high class
residential land uses in Hoyt;s model. Evaluate the impact of
transport development on the quality of the living environment in
suburbs. Discuss the role of government in minimiaing the problems
caused by the extension of the transport network. Cite examples.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
In Hoyt’s model, transport routs and high-class residential land
use has a directly relationship. With the Hoyt’s assumptions, the
relief and land rent is not uniform as the existence of transport.
Transport is not equally easy so there is different accessibility of
different areas. The radial transport routs are developed from the
city center which forms a sector or wedge pattern.
Along the transport routs, those areas are more desirable as the
high accessibility. Thus the land rent is higher than those less
accessible areas. The high–class residential land use can afford
the high land use and have high land rent bidding ability so it can
compete those high land rent areas which along the transport routs.
The high class residents are wealthy. They usually own private cars
or can afford higher commuting cost. Hence, they seek their houses
far away from heavy industrial sites or central business district
but near the transport routs because those ideal areas have higher
living environment.
For example, high income residents like to live at the Peak in Hong
Kong as there is a beautiful sea scenery and fresh air. The Peak is
linked with main roads and tunnels such as Western Harbor Tunnel and
Hung Hom Harbor Tunnel from Hong Kong Island to Kowloon.
On the other hand, the heavy industrial sites is located along the
transport routs and near the lower class residential area but far
away high class residential area as there is more accessible and
provide more job opportunities for those less educated workers. And
the lower class residents can save the time and money on commuting.
For example, Tai Po is a new town in shrub which linked with highway
and roadway, KCR. Hence, it is accessible. The high industries in
Tai Po industrial Estate provide job opportunity to lower income
residents in Tai Po. And certainly Tai Po is far away to the high
income residential area such as Happy Valley and Jardine’s Lookout.
Transports development brings both favorable and adverse effect on
the living environment in shrubs.
Transportation improvement in shrubs can enhance the urbanization in
shrubs. As the transportation expansion can favourable the
investment of private companies.
It is because the transport cost can greatly reduced than before and
the purchasing power of the residents increase as the invasion of
high-class residents in shrubs. The living environment will greatly
improved as the provision of variety of goods of those mega shopping
malls, more entertainment facilities such as cinemas, better public
utilities. For example, Tuen Mun is a new town with rapid transport
development such as Tuen Mun Highway, Castle Peak Highway and The
West Rail which link Tuen Mun to the city centre. Tuen Mun is now
more accessible and attracts business investment such as such as
Jusco, the mega shopping mall, it provides the large variety of
goods and the public facilities is improved Tuen Mun Town Hall, Tuen
Mun Swimming Pool and Tuen Mun Public Library. All of these are
greatly improve the living environment of Tuen Mun due to the
transport improvement.
On the other hand, the transport development also brings the adverse
effects. Shrubs are now more accessible and so attract the
industrial sites more from the city center to the shrubs. The
existence of industries will bring serious pollution to the
environment. The industries emit lots of greenhouse gases such as
carbon dioxide, sulphur dioxides and dust. These gases will absorb
heat and pollutants and so the temperature may increase and worsen
the air quality. Moreover, some garment industries will discharge
sewage and dyes and contaminated the river and groundwater. In long
term, the water quality will be worsening. For example, Government
encourages industries from decayed urban area more to Tai Po
Industrial Estate. Undoubtedly, Tai Po’s economic development can
be improved but the environment is seriously affected. And the Air
Pollution Index of Tai PO is now one of the serious areas in Hong
Kong.
Transport development in shrub will attract people more from city
center to there. In the rush hour of weekday, people need to
transport to the city center or out for work. So serious traffic
congestion can be found in peak hour. Time and money is wasted
during the congestion and also worsen the air pollution. As the
longer the traffic jams the more of fume exhausted by the vehicles.
For example, Tuen Mun Highway is one the busy road in Hong Kong.
Traffic congestion occurs every day in the peak hour. The exhaustion
of pollutants is higher the off-peak hour, And so the air pollution
is worsen.
In fact, government can do something to minimize the problems caused
by the extension of the transport network. A good town planning is
needed as this can avoid the seriously functional separation of
economic land use which can reduce the length of peak hour and
travel flow. Moreover, increase the road surfaces, provide stable
and reliable public transport services and develop standard
transport network can lighten the traffic jam. Some anti-pollution
policy or regulation can be adopted to discourage industries emit or
discharge pollutants.
Moreover, government can restrict some areas for Conservation Park
or greenbelt for preserve the environment.
All in all, the transport development is not only good for us but
also a bad.

"To what extent"
因為題目用了 to what extent 的字眼﹐ 暗示有得辯駁﹐ 除了追求最低成本的
動機外﹐ 還可能有其它解釋的原因﹐
例如﹕
-利用行為學說來解釋
-為滿足某些政策目標 .....等等

答﹕
有好的影響﹐ 也有壞影響。

答﹕
韋伯區位論全是追求「最低成本位」的原則。
那麼說明前舖後廠的佈局是如何能使廠家生產成本降低便是。
例如﹕
-人工方面﹐ 兩地工資比較
-工人福利方面。。
-工人組織對資方的干擾
-土地
-稅項上的優惠
-關稅
-環保條例﹐各種附例
....等等 在這些地方發揮一下﹐ 空講無說服力﹐要懂引用一些實則數據事例。
(在這方面考你功夫囉。)
To merge into the economy of the Pearl River Delta and strive for the
leading position in the region,the "Front door office-Back door
factory" is a very common practice in Hong Kong enterprise.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of this practise to the HK
enterprises?To what extent does this practice fit in with Weber's
model? How does the practice affect employment opportunities in Hong
Kong?
可否講下後面兩part 點做,有小小方向,但又不太清楚
