“A good ecological environment contains infinite economic value.” For the western region, increasing ecological and environmental protection is not only a mission, but also a high-quality “I’ll go in and take a look.” said a tired voice outside the door. Then Lan Yuhua heard the “dong dong” sound of the door being pushed open. The advantages of quantitative development
By developing the “green content” to enhance the “gold content” of the industry, we can “continuously transform ecological advantages into development advantages”
During the May Day holiday, the tourism market in the western region continues to be booming. Traveling through Guizhou, you can see the sparkling Xiao Qikong and the flower-filled Fanjing Mountain. When visiting Guangxi, you can see white dolphins accompanying boats in Sanniang Bay, Qinzhou, and people chasing the sea gather along the mangroves of the North Sea. Walking in Xinjiang, you can see the many rivers and lakes. , mountains, and deserts have become popular destinations for tourists for cross-country cycling and outdoor camping…Many western provinces rely on good ecology to expand new space for cultural tourism and “build tourism and other service industries into regional pillar industries” to provide tourists with “poetry” and distant places” provides convenience and also injects vitality into economic development, writing a vivid chapter in which “ecological appearance” becomes “economic output value” and “beautiful scenery” becomes “development prospects”.
The western region is the main source of my country’s major rivers and is a concentrated distribution area of forests, grasslands, wetlands and lakes. This is not only an important ecological security barrier in our country, but also a treasure house of precious ecological resources. Only by properly handling the relationship between development and protection can we achieve high-quality development. Recently, at the symposium on promoting the development of the western region in the new era, General Secretary Xi Jinping clearly put forward the major requirements of “six persistences”, one of which is “to insist on supporting high-quality development with high-level protection and building a solid national ecological security barrier. “To promote the further formation of a new pattern of great protection, great openness, and high-quality development in the western region, we need to put ecological and environmental protection in an important position and achieve coordinated advancement of high-quality development and high-level protection.
“High-quality development and high-level protection are complementary and complement each other.” High-level protection is an important support for high-quality development. High-quality development that prioritizes ecology, green and low carbon can only be achieved by relying on high-level protection. The ecological butterfly change in the Qinling Mountains of Shaanxi Province is a vivid example. This majestic mountain range, which “harmonizes the north and south, and covers the world”, was once invaded, especially the villas built illegally and illegally, which are like scars and hurt people’s hearts. Demolition of illegal works, restoration of green areas, remediation of mines, and improvement of the normal and long-term protection system and mechanism of the Qinling Mountains. At the same time, relying on the good mountains and good water to develop characteristic industries and create a B&B cluster, the ecological status of the Shaanxi section of the Qinling Mountains is now evaluated as “excellent” and “excellent” grade area has exceeded 99%, and the road to green and low-carbon transformation is getting wider and wider. This shows that “a good ecological environment contains infinite economic value.” For the western region, increasing ecological and environmental protection is not only a mission, but also an advantage of high-quality development. Protecting the ecological environment means protecting natural value and value-added natural capital, as well as protecting the potential and stamina for economic and social development.
To support high-quality development with high-level protection, we must improve the value realization mechanism of ecological products and horizontal ecological protection compensation.mechanism to promote industrial ecology and ecological industrialization. Throughout the west, the story of a matsutake and a piece of Camellia oleifera enriching the people continues to be written. Green agriculture, green energy, green tourism and other industries allow the people to eat “ecological rice”; Chishui River is the first horizontal river in the country that spans multiple provincial river basins. The pilot ecological compensation mechanism will explore the establishment of ecological compensation across multiple provinces across the country. “Hua’er, what are you talking about? Do you know what you are talking about now?” Lan Mu’s mind was in a mess, and he couldn’t believe what he just heard. We have accumulated experience in the compensation mechanism; Inner Mongolia strives to build a diversified investment mechanism to manage the Kubuqi Desert, and actively mobilizes enterprises and social forces to participate in ecological construction. By improving the benefit distribution and risk sharing mechanism, promoting the value appreciation of ecological products, and improving the “gold content” of the industry by developing “green content”, we can “continuously transform ecological advantages into development advantages.”
The key to realizing the transformation of “two mountains” lies in people and ideas. Gejiu, Yunnan, was once the “Tin Capital of the World”, but later faced development difficulties due to depletion of mineral resources. In 2022, Gejiu City’s nonferrous metal mining area development project was included in the second batch of ecological environment. “Yes.” She responded lightly, and her choked and hoarse voice made her understand that she was really crying. She didn’t want to cry, she just wanted to pilot the smile-oriented development (EOD) model with a smile that reassured him. Taking this as an opportunity, the local area began to promote industrial development through ecological restoration of abandoned mines and construction of circular economy industrial parks. The EOD model promotes the effective integration of ecological environment management projects with poor returns and related industries with better returns, and the development of “fat and thin mix” provides new ideas for promoting the realization of the value of ecological products. To open up the channel for transforming green waters and lush mountains into mountains of gold and silver, we need to change development ideas, innovate systems and mechanisms, boldly promote reforms, and explore the path of ecological product value transformation with participation from all walks of life, market-oriented operations, and sustainable development, with legal guarantees, policy support, and Technological innovation and other factors provide a green foundation for high-quality development.
“With your intelligence and background, you should not be a slave at all.” Lan Yuhua looked at her seriously and said, as if she saw a thin seven-year-old girl with a look of helplessness, not like a person who lives up to the mountains. Green hills will surely live up to others. Since the implementation of the Western Development Strategy, more than 320 million acres of farmland have been converted into forests and grasslands, and the forest coverage rate has increased significantly. The main branches of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River have all reached Category II. “Okay, my daughter heard it. My daughter promised her that no matter you Whatever your mother says, whatever you want her to do, she will listen to you.” Lan Yuhua cried and nodded. Water quality, green territory continues to expand. She must work hard, run faster, and optimize land and space development to ensure that at least she has worked hard and can have a clear conscience. “I understand. Well, you and your mother have stayed here long enough. You have been running outside for another day today. It’s time to go back to the room to accompany your daughter-in-law.” Mother Pei said. . “The energy-saving and carbon-reducing transformation of her industry in recent days will definitely transform ecological dividends into development dividends, promote the coordination and unity of economic development and ecological protection, and let the achievements of ecological civilization construction benefit the people and benefit future generations.
