Features: With the development of the economy, changes in land use have become increasingly frequent. To avoid environmental problems caused by land use changes, reduce investment risks, and prevent new environmental issues arising from changes in land use, it is necessary to investigate past and present activities on the land, especially polluting activities, when making decisions on land use changes. An analysis and assessment of the environmental conditions of the land should be conducted to clarify pollution responsibilities, i.e., to evaluate the market environment. This book summarizes the process and requirements for evaluating potential environmental pollution and responsibility of land, and introduces the various stages and processes of land environmental assessment in detail through specific examples. This book can serve as a foundational guide for land environmental assessment in general real estate transactions, as well as a technical guide for land environmental assessment professionals. Land environmental assessment can help client institutions reduce environmental risks and responsibilities brought about by real estate transactions.
