The original brand column "Learning Institute" of Xinhua News Agency's "Learning in Progress" published an article to share with you the deep meaning of the "unchangeable persistence" of the general secretary.
Since 2013, around the Qingming Festival every year, General Secretary Xi Jinping has arranged an event, that is, to participate in voluntary tree planting activities with the masses of the capital.
On March 30, Xi Jinping "as promised" came to the tree planting site in Huangcun Town, Daxing District, Beijing.
He emphasized that since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, I have participated in the voluntary tree planting in the capital for 10 consecutive years. This is not only to contribute to the construction of a beautiful China, but also to promote the sowing of the seeds of ecological civilization in the whole society, especially in the hearts of young people. , calls on everyone to be the practitioners and promoters of ecological civilization construction, persevere and make contributions for a long time, so that our motherland has bluer skies, greener mountains, cleaner water and better ecological environment.
What has changed is location, what has not changed is persistence
In 2013, Yongding River in Fengtai District; in 2014, Tuancheng Lake Regulation Pool of South-to-North Water Diversion in Haidian District; in 2015, in Sunhe Township, Chaoyang District; in 2016, in Xihongmen Town, Daxing District; in 2017, in Jiangtai Township, Chaoyang District; in 2018 , Zhangjiawan Town, Tongzhou District; 2019, Yongshun Town, Tongzhou District; 2020, Jiugong Town, Daxing District; 2021, Wenyu River, Chaoyang District; 2022, Huangcun Town, Daxing District...
The general secretary insists on participating in voluntary tree planting activities every year. In the past 10 years, the location has changed, and the constant has been persistence.
Advocating the civilized fashion of everyone loving green, planting green and protecting green, Xi Jinping practiced it personally.
Xi Jinping once said that the whole country should be mobilized, the whole people should be involved, and the whole society should participate.
Take 2015 as an example, no one expected that the general secretary would come to Sunhe to plant trees.
There is basically a piece of wasteland, and the surrounding environment is not good.
A staff member who was at the scene recalled: "Because it has not been leveled, the ground is a little uneven. It rained two days ago, and some places became 'rubber soil', mixed with bricks, and sometimes the shovel made a loud noise. ."
When planting trees that day, a 75-year-old volunteer took off the "five-star volunteer badge" from his volunteer vest and gave it to Xi Jinping as a gift.
Xi Jinping inspected it carefully and said, "This is a very high honor, and I will keep it well."
Xi Jinping once said that participating in voluntary tree planting is the legal obligation of every citizen.
The predecessors planted trees and the latter enjoyed the shade. Each of us is a shader, but more importantly, a tree planter.
He expressed affectionately that our generation is to use our own efforts to benefit future generations.
It's a tree, and it's also a "tree man"
When Xi Jinping participated in the voluntary tree planting, there were almost all young pioneers.
Planting trees together with the children, the general secretary clearly stated: "Primary school students do not need to be selected from the whole city, but organize several classes nearby to participate, and not a child is left behind. Children are naturally lively and play while planting trees. Awareness of the environment."
At the tree planting site, Xi Jinping always patiently taught the children to straighten the saplings, fill the soil and water them.
Seeing the children's unfamiliar movements, Xi Jinping also carefully reminded "be careful with your hands" and "slow down, slow down, don't shovel your feet."
"When I saw Grandpa Xi coming over, my heart was pounding. When he talked to us cordially about the sky, all the tension disappeared. I really hope this moment can stay for a while longer." He once participated in a tree planting activity one of the children said so.
The general secretary planting trees is both a tree and a tree person.
His words and deeds have a great impact on the growth of children.
He told the young pioneers to develop the awareness of caring for nature and protecting the environment since childhood, and to use their own hands to make the motherland more beautiful.
I hope that the students should not only understand the truth, but also be the practitioner of the truth, actively cultivate the labor awareness and labor ability, use their own hands to sow greenery for the motherland, and beautify the world we live in together.
When planting trees in Xihongmen Town, Daxing District in 2016, the general secretary said meaningfully, 10 years later, 20 years later, you can go back to this place to see how the saplings you planted with your own hands have grown.
This is a very meaningful thing.
As the general secretary said, it is necessary to organize the whole society, especially the young people, to get close to nature, understand nature, protect nature by participating in tree planting activities, cultivate ecological awareness of loving nature and cherishing life, and learn and experience the concept of green development.
Trees in ten years, people in a hundred years.
The general secretary planted saplings, and also planted the awareness of loving trees and protecting trees, loving labor and the concept of green life in the hearts of children.
Roll up your sleeves and work hard, year after year
Ecological prosperity is civilization prosperity.
In this year's tree planting activities, the general secretary also said that the prosperity of forest and grass is the prosperity of ecology.
He said meaningfully that the forest is a reservoir, a money bank, and a grain bank, and now a "carbon bank" should be added.
Forests and grasslands play a fundamental and strategic role in national ecological security.
Xi Jinping once said that an important significance of voluntary tree planting by the whole people is to let everyone establish the awareness of ecological civilization and form a consensus and joint force to promote the construction of ecological civilization.
Under the leadership of Xi Jinping, the nationwide voluntary tree planting is in full swing, and "lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets" has become the consensus and conscious action of the whole society.
People are cultivating a common green homeland with practical actions. The land of the motherland is becoming more and more green, and the living environment in urban and rural areas is becoming more and more beautiful.
During the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period, my country's forest coverage rate increased to 23.04%, and the forest stock volume exceeded 17.5 billion cubic meters.
The main goal of economic and social development during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period is to achieve new progress in ecological civilization construction, increase the forest coverage rate to 24.1%, continue to improve the ecological environment, strengthen the ecological security barrier, and significantly improve the urban and rural living environment.
The construction of ecological civilization is not something that can be achieved overnight.
During the period of voluntary tree planting, Xi Jinping also repeatedly encouraged everyone that compared with the goal of building a beautiful China and the people's new expectations for a better life, the problems of insufficient total forest and grass resources and low quality in my country are still prominent, and we must continue to work hard to Work for a long time.
Now, my country's ecological civilization construction has entered a critical period in which the improvement of the ecological environment has changed from quantitative to qualitative.
Xi Jinping emphasized that we must unswervingly implement the new development concept, unswervingly follow the path of ecological priority and green development, coordinate the promotion of integrated protection and systematic management of mountains, rivers, forests, fields, lakes, grass and sand, scientifically carry out land greening, and increase the total amount of forest and grass resources. and quality, consolidate and enhance the carbon sink capacity of ecosystems, and make greater contributions to promoting global environmental and climate governance and building a modernization in which humans and nature coexist in harmony.
"It doesn't have to be me, it must be me." Planting trees and building a beautiful China, the general secretary said, and insisted on doing it for ten years.
