The pollution problem is "unchanging", what is the confidence in some places?

  According to a report in the Rule of Law Daily on July 19, the Central Ecological and Environmental Protection Inspection Team recently conducted a second round of inspections in Jiangxi Province, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, and Hunan Province.

The inspection team pointed out that the three provinces (regions) have blindly launched the "two high" projects, illegal quarrying, illegal encroachment on wetlands, illegal pollution discharge, false perfunctory rectification and other outstanding ecological and environmental problems, as well as inaction, slow action, non-accountability, Do not hit hard, even deal with formalism and bureaucracy issues such as perfunctory and falsification.

  In order to mine a mine, when the forest vegetation in the nature reserve is intact, it falsely claims that the protected area has lost its ecological protection value and applies for cancellation of the protected area; the old sewage pipe network reconstruction data is obviously different from the actual situation, and the domestic sewage collection rate is as high as 100.92%...In recent years, situations like "false rectification" and "ineffective rectification" have been difficult to call news.

  It is worth noting that four years ago, the Central Ecological and Environmental Protection Inspection Team conducted a round of inspections of the above-mentioned places and pointed out a series of problems including "the scope of the protected area illegally adjusted for the purpose of the project."

Since then, the inspection team has also carried out a "look back" operation, but these problems still exist.

Today, the inspection team has carried out the second round of inspections, and related issues are still "unchanging."

  Why is it harder to rectify certain problems in these places than to touch the soul?

  It should be admitted that some problems have not been effectively rectified for a long time because of certain difficulties. For example, some ecological damage requires a lot of funds and technology to repair, and it also requires a long process.

But this is not the whole problem. As the inspectorate said, the inaction and laziness of the relevant departments, arguing with each other and lack of coordination, caused the problem to be shelved for a long time.

  Subjective unwillingness to supervise and rectify is the more terrifying and essential reason.

According to media reports, some places value the local short-term interests, and value development and neglect protection, and are unwilling to spend money on rectification; some places have "hippie smiles" and indulge in large profits and taxes, destroying the ecology of "funders" Turning a blind eye to other issues and responding with intentions; some local government-business relations are ambiguous or even distorted, there are phenomena such as entanglement between public power and private interests, and public officials acting as "protective umbrellas" for polluting enterprises.

  To some extent, some officials may feel that if they don't take the initiative to carry out ecological damage, do "multiple choice questions" in supervision, and give the underlying companies a breath of breath, nothing will happen.

But in fact, small mistakes are also mistakes, and the accumulation of small mistakes is a big mistake. Inaction and negative response are also evils.

  This attitude of indulgence and the political-business ambiguity behind it will not only blow up a mountain, destroy a piece of land, pollute a piece of water, but also degrade the local political ecology and business environment, lose national resources and property, and suffer people’s lives and well-being. Threats and injuries, etc.

  There have been many similar cases. For example, as mentioned in this report, a non-ferrous metal company in Yongfeng County, Ji’an, Jiangxi, has illegally constructed 11 coal-fired reverberatory furnaces that have been eliminated by the state. The industry and information departments at the city and county levels have repeatedly inspected on-site. But they turned a blind eye; CCTV reporters went to the Wuzhishan Forest Public Security Bureau of Hainan to report the situation and discovered that the purchaser who secretly cut wild huanghuali was drinking with the deputy director of the bureau... The plot is terrible and strange. It is shocking.

  When talking about protecting the ecological environment in some places, they often have a high position, many means, and a deep understanding, but when they really do things, they often repeat the mistakes of "pollution first, then governance" and "pollution quick and difficult".

  It can be seen that in order to tackle pollution problems, solving the problems of people and mechanisms is an important link and foundation.

For example, it is necessary to improve the decision-making mechanism and procedures, and do not leave any loopholes for "one word" or "collective decision-making" for illegal projects; some places put forward environmental public interest litigation and cross-regional environmental governance "gambling"; some places Explore the establishment of a system of accountability-to hold accountable people who make blind decisions regardless of the ecological environment and cause serious consequences... We look forward to more places that can contribute innovative measures and governance samples, and contribute more and more power to the protection of the ecological environment.
