Xinhua News Agency Commentator
Fifteen years ago, Xi Jinping, then secretary of the Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee, first proposed that "green water and green mountains are golden and silver mountains" during an inspection in Anji Yucun. Over the past 15 years, this important concept has become increasingly popular among the people, has become the consensus and action of the whole party and society, and has become an important part of the new development concept.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the construction of ecological civilization has been included in the overall layout of the "five in one". Pollution prevention and control has become one of the three critical battles to decisively build a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way. The reform of the ecological civilization system has been further advanced... With Comrade Xi Jinping as the core Under the scientific deployment and strong promotion of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, significant results have been achieved in pollution control, environmental quality has continued to improve, ecological civilization construction has been steadily steadily, and the beautiful Chinese picture scroll is slowly spreading, interpreting the "two mountains" concept and the powerful truth of Xi Jinping’s ecological civilization thought , Also pointed out the direction for future development.
The essence of the "two mountains" concept is to scientifically grasp the dialectical and unified relationship between economic development and ecological protection, to achieve mutual promotion and benign interaction between the two, and to blaze a path of green development in practice. From digging mountains and "selling quarries" to protecting greens and "building golden nests", from shutting down "small chaos" to "high-precision", the development practice of various places has confirmed a simple and profound truth: economic development and Ecological protection is not an either-or "single-choice question", but a community of shared destiny in harmony. The ecology itself is the economy, and protecting the ecology is the development of productivity. Persist in protecting in development and developing in protection, so that "green water and green mountains" will continue to bring "golden mountains and silver mountains" to benefit the people and achieve sustainable economic and social development.
There is no end to the construction of ecological civilization, and it takes a long time to solve environmental problems. If you choose the right path, you must stick to it. In the face of economic downward pressure and various risks and challenges, it is even more necessary to maintain the strategic determination of ecological civilization construction and firmly establish the orientation of ecological priority and green development. It is not necessary to start paving projects and start projects just because of difficulties in economic development. The idea of sacrificing the environment in exchange for economic growth, and even trying to break the red line of ecological protection. The more complex and severe the development situation, the more we must unswervingly practice the new development concept, strengthen the governance of ecological and environmental issues, and continue to promote green development. This is an inevitable requirement for building a well-off society in an all-round way, and also for us to overcome difficulties and achieve high-quality development. only way.
The prospects for transformation and upgrading are broad, and the world for green development is broad. In Yangzhou, Jiangsu, chemical companies have found new growth points through self-developed new energy projects; in Azha Township, Zanang County, Tibet, ecological poverty alleviation projects have driven more than 2,000 people out of poverty; in many places, the ecological industry has turned into a "cash cow" , The beautiful environment has become a "cornucopia"... Green development is not only a requirement, but also a way out. Only by adhering to green development and driving reform and innovation can we find a way to transform "green water and green mountains" into "golden mountains and silver mountains", and build a solid foundation for high-quality development and stimulate momentum.
People live up to the green hills, and green hills will definitely live up to others. Practicing the concept of "two mountains" and advancing along the road of green development, the picture of beautiful China in the new era will be more magnificent, and the beautiful ecology will inject more positive energy into people's happy life.
