  The "Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Deepening the Battle of Pollution Prevention and Control" proposes to fight the blue sky, clear water, and pure land defense with higher standards, and set up two phases of pollution prevention and control goals in 2025 and 2035, and set a good tone for future work. Scientific deployment.

Among them, eight landmark battles were clarified, including the fight against heavy pollution weather, the fight against urban black and odorous water bodies, and the fight against agricultural and rural pollution.

At present, the relevant departments are refining the task breakdown, compiling 8 landmark campaign action plans, and further transforming the road map into timetables and construction drawings.

  Treat both symptoms and root causes and overcome difficulties.

Recently, the "Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Deepening the Battle of Pollution Prevention and Control" (hereinafter referred to as the "Opinions") was issued and implemented.

The "Opinions" clarified that eight landmark battles should be deployed and implemented, including the fight against heavy pollution weather and the fight against urban black and smelly waters.

  What are the new requirements for pollution prevention?

What are the contents of the 8 iconic battles, and how to fight them in depth?

Historic, turning, and overall changes in my country's ecological environment protection

  The “Resolution of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on Major Achievements and Historical Experience of the Party’s Centuries of Struggle” passed by the Sixth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China stated: “Since the The consciousness and initiative to promote green development have been significantly enhanced, a major step has been taken in the construction of a beautiful China, and my country's ecological and environmental protection has undergone historic, turning, and overall changes."

  Resolutely fighting the battle against pollution is one of the three major battles clearly defined by the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China for building a well-off society in an all-round way.

  Chang Jiwen, deputy director of the Resource and Environmental Policy Research Institute of the Development Research Center of the State Council, stated that in June 2018, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council issued the "Opinions on Comprehensively Strengthening Ecological Environment Protection and Resolutely Fighting Pollution Prevention and Control". The target period is the end of 2020, which matches the goal of building a moderately prosperous society in all respects.

The goal set by this opinion has been achieved as scheduled. In the new era, we must set up two phases of pollution prevention and control goals for 2025 and 2035 in accordance with the goals basically achieved by Beautiful China in 2035, to set a good tone for future work and make scientific deployments. .

  Tian Chengchuan, deputy director of the Comprehensive Department of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, said: "During the 13th Five-Year Plan period, through resolutely fighting pollution prevention and control, a large number of ecological and environmental problems that harm the health of the people have been effectively solved, and the people's sense of the ecological environment has been significantly enhanced. "Tian Chengchuan said that at the same time, we must also see that the current pollution problems in key areas and key industries are still prominent, severely polluted weather still occurs in autumn and winter, ozone concentration is slowly increasing, and urban black and odorous water bodies have been treated with great results. Long-term governance has not yet been achieved, and pollution prevention and control in agriculture and rural areas need to be strengthened urgently. Compared with the people’s expectations for a better life, the quality of the ecological environment is still far behind the requirements for high-quality development during the 14th Five-Year Plan period, and we must focus on it. Highlight problems, concentrate superior forces, mobilize the forces of all parties, and continue to fight a number of landmark battles.

Deploy and implement according to the three levels of continuous lay-up, consolidation and expansion, and new lay-up

  Tian Chengchuan introduced that the "Opinions" insisted on the combination of inheritance and innovation. According to the principles of effective connection, public concern, prominent focus, reachable goals, and departmental collaboration, the 8 landmark campaigns were deployed and implemented at 3 levels.

  The first is to continue to fight well and retain the four iconic battles of diesel truck pollution control, urban black and odorous water control, Yangtze River protection and restoration, and agricultural and rural pollution control during the "13th Five-Year Plan" period. New goals and tasks have been proposed to consolidate existing Achieve results, continue to overcome difficulties, and strive to achieve greater results during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period.

  The second is to consolidate and expand, expand the comprehensive control battle of the Bohai Sea to the key sea area comprehensive control battle, and expand the scope to the Yangtze River Estuary-Hangzhou Bay and the adjacent waters of the Pearl River Estuary, coordinate the implementation of pollution prevention and control actions, strengthen marine ecological protection and restoration, and pass the depth of the battle. The breakthrough has led to the overall improvement of the national marine ecological environment.

  The third is to add new battles, strengthen the coordinated control of PM2.5 and ozone, and deploy the battle against heavy pollution weather and the prevention and control of ozone pollution to further enhance the people's sense of blue sky; implement the major national strategy and add the battle for ecological protection and governance of the Yellow River , To promote joint efforts in major protection and coordinated promotion of major governance.

  Wang Jinnan, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and dean of the Environmental Planning Institute of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, said: "The "Opinions" put forward quantitative targets for all eight landmark battles. For example, by 2025, the ratio of the number of days with severe pollution and above will be controlled within 1%. , County-level urban built-up areas have basically eliminated black and odorous water bodies, the overall water quality of the Yangtze River Basin has been maintained excellent, the water quality of the upper and middle reaches of the Yellow River (above Huayuankou) has reached Class II, and the treatment rate of rural domestic sewage has reached 40%, etc., will vigorously promote the fight against pollution The transition from'resolutely hitting well' to'in-depth hitting well'."

Is stepping up efforts to prepare an action plan to ensure that it is operational, feasible, and effective

  The "Opinions" clarified the working principles for in-depth fight for pollution prevention and control: adhere to the same direction and undiminished strength; adhere to problem-oriented and environmental protection for the people; adhere to precision and science, and control pollution according to law; adhere to the system concept and synergize efficiency; adhere to reform Leading and innovation driven.

  Tian Chengchuan introduced that in the next step, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment will, in accordance with the "Opinions" deployment, seize the critical period of the beginning of the "14th Five-Year Plan", and focus on three aspects.

One is to implement the top-level design.

Refine the task decomposition, quickly compile 8 iconic campaign action plans, and further transform the road map into timetables and construction drawings to ensure that it is operational, feasible, and effective.

The second is to strengthen overall coordination.

Strengthen policy coordination, mechanism coordination, resource coordination, and force coordination, refine and implement supporting policies and measures for tackling tough battles, and carry out follow-up scheduling and summary evaluation.

The third is to strengthen guidance and assistance.

Improve the central coordination, the province’s overall responsibility, and cities and counties to implement the tough mechanisms, and guide local governments to implement measures tailored to local conditions, focus on content, clear goals, and pragmatic measures to ensure that the decisions and deployments of the Party Central Committee and the State Council are fully implemented. .

  “Eco-environmental governance is a systematic project, which requires the comprehensive use of administration, market, rule of law, technology and other means.” The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment stated that the "Opinions" clarified the key tasks for improving the modernization of ecological environment governance from seven aspects. : First, comprehensively strengthen the protection of the rule of law for the ecological environment, and promote the governance of the ecological environment on the track of the rule of law.

The second is to improve the eco-environmental economic policies and implement policies and measures conducive to green development.

The third is to improve the eco-environmental capital investment mechanism, and to ensure that the eco-environmental capital investment is a basic and strategic investment.

The fourth is to implement an action to make up for the shortcomings of environmental infrastructure and build an integrated environmental infrastructure system.

The fifth is to enhance the efficiency of ecological environment supervision and law enforcement, and strengthen the supervision of the whole process.

Sixth, establish and improve a modern ecological environment monitoring system to achieve full coverage of environmental quality, ecological quality, and pollution source monitoring.

The seventh is to build a service-oriented technological innovation system and strengthen the transformation of ecological and environmental technological achievements.

  Treating both symptoms and root causes and overcoming difficulties, a beautiful China with blue sky and white clouds, twinkling stars, clear water and green shores, and shallow fishes will surely be realized as scheduled.
