Jul 17, 2023
The earth is the common and only home of mankind. China regards the construction of ecological civilization as a fundamental plan related to the sustainable development of the Chinese nation. Over the past ten years, great strides have been made in building a beautiful China, and historic, turning point, and overall changes have taken place in China's ecological and environmental protection. The Chinese practice of ecological civilization construction not only paints a beautiful green picture scroll on the land of China, but also contributes Chinese wisdom and Chinese strength to the joint efforts of all countries to build a community of life on earth.
Building a modernization in which man and nature coexist harmoniously
The prosperity of human civilization is inseparable from the nourishment of nature.
The majestic Yellow River is the mother river of the Chinese nation. On her south bank, the Kubuqi Desert stretches across. It used to be the "Fenggangeliang" where the wind was raging and the yellow sand was everywhere. Today, looking down from a high altitude, the eye-catching green, or connecting dots into lines, or connecting into forests, constitutes a magnificent picture of the harmonious coexistence of man and nature.
Satellite remote sensing monitoring shows that in the past 10 years, the quality of the ecological environment in key areas such as the Yellow River, the Yangtze River Basin, the Qinling Mountains, the source of the Three Rivers, the Loess Plateau, the Northeast Region, the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region, and the Mu Us Sandy Land has continued to improve. Kofi Kouaku, a senior researcher at the Center for Africa-China Studies at the University of Johannesburg in South Africa who worked on environment and sustainable development at the World Bank, said: "This is a direct reflection of China's outstanding achievements in ecological protection. These achievements are attributed to The strong leadership of the Chinese Communist Party and the Chinese government."
Firmly following the path of ecological priority, green and low-carbon development stems from the Communist Party of China's profound thinking on the laws of the development of human civilization.
Look at the forest area - the forest coverage rate and forest stock volume have maintained "double growth" for more than 30 consecutive years. China is the country with the largest increase in forest resources and the largest artificial forest area in the world; it is the first country in the world to achieve "zero growth" in land degradation. Since 2000, China has always been the main force in the global "greening", and about 1/4 of the new greening area in the world comes from China.
Look at the beautiful countryside - relying on green ecological resources to develop rural tourism, China regards "beautiful countryside" as an important starting point for rural revitalization, invigorates the rural economy, and strengthens rural ecological protection and restoration. Since 2021, four Chinese villages have been rated as "Best Tourist Villages" by the United Nations World Tourism Organization.
Look at green projects——In December 2022, the "China Landscape Project", which practices the concept of a community of life in China's mountains, rivers, forests, fields, lakes and grasses, was selected as one of the first ten "World Ecological Restoration Flagship Projects" by the United Nations. The award speech was short and powerful: "'China Shanshui Project' regards all ecosystems as a 'community of life', and has restored millions of hectares of land in China through unremitting efforts." According to the plan, from 2021 to 2025, China's central finance will continue to Arrange funds of no less than 50 billion yuan to support the implementation of at least 25 new landscape projects.
Look at the development of the company - Walking into the FAW-Volkswagen North China base located in the Tianjin Economic and Technological Development Zone, the green photovoltaic projects arranged on the roof, ground and carport have been put into use, which can provide 17 million kWh of clean electricity for the base every year. In addition, more than 100 energy-saving and emission-reduction projects support the high-standard operation of this "green factory". In the 2022 Green Manufacturing List announced by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of China not long ago, there are 874 such green factories in China, 643 green design products, 47 green industrial parks and 112 green supply chains are also on the list. Manage business.
Building a beautiful earth home requires continuous and unremitting efforts from all parties. China is willing to continue to work with all parties to jointly open a new chapter in building a community of life on earth, to paint a beautiful picture of harmonious coexistence between man and nature, and to build a clean and beautiful homeland for future generations.
