  "This annual meeting is close to carbon neutrality!"

  The Boao Forum for Asia Annual Conference 2022, which was successfully held as scheduled under the new crown pneumonia epidemic, attracted global attention, and the "green conference" was even praised by Chinese and foreign guests.

  Hainan, what impressed the guests at the conference was far more than that.

Walking into Boao Town, where the annual meeting is held, the idyllic scenery is refreshing.

White walls and black tiles, winding paths, coconut grove water charm, coastal promenade, "landscapes, forests, fields, lakes and seas" are perfectly integrated here.

  "Hainan's ecological environment is a precious wealth bestowed by nature. It must be cherished and carefully cared for to make Hainan truly a four-season garden for the Chinese nation." On April 13, 2018, General Secretary Xi Jinping was celebrating the 30th anniversary of Hainan's establishment of a special economic zone. pointed out at the meeting.

  General Secretary Xi Jinping is deeply concerned about the hot land of Hainan; General Secretary Xi Jinping is here for the lucid waters and lush mountains of Hainan; General Secretary Xi Jinping is looking forward to the construction of ecological civilization in Hainan.

  Since 2010, General Secretary Xi Jinping has come to Hainan for investigation and research four times, and each time he has made clear requirements and important instructions for ecological environmental protection.

In April this year, when he inspected Hainan, he re-emphasized that "Hainan must persist in establishing an ecological province unswervingly, and take the construction of ecological civilization as the top priority." Coastline development management and control measures. It is necessary to solidly promote the construction of the national ecological civilization pilot zone.”

He urged the local responsible comrades to strengthen the overall planning of land and sea, and take ecological protection work as an important task.

  Building a national ecological civilization pilot zone is one of the development orientations given by the central government to Hainan as "three districts and one center".

In recent years, Hainan has always kept in mind that the protection of the ecological environment is the "big man of the country", protecting the ecological "golden signboard" with the highest standards and strictest requirements, exploring the path for innovative development of ecological civilization construction, and striving to build a beautiful model of China's Hainan where man and nature coexist in harmony , and strive to become an important window for China to show the practical achievements of Xi Jinping's ecological civilization thought to the world.

  "A drop of water" reflects the changes in water control

  In the central part of Hainan Island, the Limuling Mountains are rolling.

The water vapor rises in the tropical rainforest, swept over the vegetation, merged into a shower and fell into a trickle, flowing down the Nandu River, Wanquan River and Changhua River, and poured into the sea.

  Hainan's ecological protection, adhere to the four "most" words - the earliest planning, the first to carry out legislative practice in many frontier fields; the strictest system, to comprehensively build the ecological system and environmental security barriers; the most detailed planning, improve the prevention and control from the source to accountability the highest standard and align with the international benchmarking areas for ecological and environmental quality.

  A drop of water witnesses the continuous improvement of the ecological environment.

  egrets skim the water, fish and shrimp roam the shallow bottom.

Standing beside Yawei Creek in Haikou City, Huang Yongrong, a 69-year-old citizen, couldn't help but sigh: "This is a long-lost freshness in the busy city."

  Bearing in mind General Secretary Xi Jinping's entrustment, Hainan will do a good job of "water control" in the spirit of nailing the nails.

  One-handedly grasp the pollution interception and expansion, and accurately investigate and block the source.

Hainan adheres to "one source, one policy", promotes the gradual withdrawal of agricultural planting and breeding from drinking water sources, strengthens management and inspections of water sources, and completes the rectification of environmental problems in 122 drinking water sources.

Since 2018, Hainan has invested a total of 15.4 billion yuan in the construction of urban sewage treatment facilities, built a sewage pipe network of 3,800 kilometers, blocked a number of sewage outlets into the river and the sea, and eliminated a number of blank areas in the sewage pipe network.

  Grasp the water system connection with one hand and give the water body a second life.

Hainan uses the concept of sponge city to connect water systems and wetlands, dredging closed inland rivers and lakes and connecting them for circulation, dismantling illegal reclamation projects in the offshore area, increasing the flow of the Gulf Ocean, and urging all kinds of water bodies to come alive and move.

  Data in 2021 shows that the water quality compliance rate of key drinking water sources in Hainan is 100%, and the seawater pollution factors in the coastal waters have been basically eliminated, reaching the best level since governance.

  After the overall water quality was improved, a special campaign of "six water governance" under the leadership of both the provincial party committee secretary and the governor was launched, and the water governance management system was operated independently.

  "Everyone, work harder!" Fu Haiqiu, a river guard in Nankai Village, Baisha Li Autonomous County, raised his voice and cheered for everyone while shoveling up the river silt.

  It is located in the Central Hainan Ecological Conservation Area and undertakes the important task of guarding Hainan's "Water Tower".

The local ecological environment, water affairs, agriculture and rural areas, and procuratorial departments broke barriers, promoted on-site promotion, on-site supervision, and division of labor, forming a co-management and co-governance pattern in which the entire county was engaged to promote the participation of the whole people.

  "By fighting this tough battle for water control, not only must all the provincial and state-controlled sections meet the standards in five years, but also innovate in the system and mechanism to crack the management drawbacks," said the person in charge of the Hainan Provincial Water Affairs Department.

  A drop of water reflects the vivid practice of ecological civilization system innovation.

  From the "integration of multiple regulations" to the obvious improvement of the ability of national land and space protection and governance, from the government procurement system of green products to the outgoing audit of natural resources assets, from the promotion of the construction of clean energy islands to the gradual establishment and improvement of the system for efficient utilization of resources... Hainan continues to promote ecological The civilized system reform has formed a batch of replicable and generalizable experience and practices.

  "Multiple regulations in one" is a game of chess across the island.

Hainan is the first country in the country to carry out the pilot reform of "multi-plan integration" in the province, coordinate various regional spatial plans, draw a map in the whole province, and completely solve the problems of existing plans, such as self-contained systems, content conflicts, and lack of cohesion and coordination. .

  "Three lines and one order" are strictly defined as "high voltage lines".

In 2020, the achievements of Hainan's "Ecological Protection Red Line, Environmental Quality Bottom Line, Resource Utilization Online and Ecological Environment Access List" passed the technical review of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, and the expert group gave a high evaluation of the "Recommended Tree Model".

  "This is a long-term account, an overall account, and a comprehensive account." Quan Zhanjun, chief engineer of the Hainan Provincial Department of Ecology and Environment, said that this year Hainan announced the country's first ecological environment access list that includes management and control requirements at all levels in the province. In front of enterprises and projects, there are environmental protection "high voltage lines".

  The strictest plastic ban order opens the "plastic ban era".

Since Hainan took the lead in promulgating and implementing the country's first global and comprehensive "plastic ban" local regulations, disposable plastic products that were widely used in life have gradually been replaced by environmentally friendly products.

On December 1, 2020, Hainan entered the "Plastic Ban Era".

At present, the sales volume of biodegradable substitutes is nearly 30,000 tons, and more than 4,000 illegal cases have been filed.

  Three-dimensional assessment of ecological compensation mechanism.

In August 2019, Sanya in the downstream of Chitian Reservoir and Baoting in the upstream signed an ecological protection compensation agreement. This three-dimensional assessment pilot of "water quality + water quantity + action" has made the two places a community of ecological destiny.

  "As the pilot project is gradually extended to the whole province, ecological governance has greater impetus and financial strength." Wang Minying, director of the Environmental Planning and Policy Research Institute of the Hainan Academy of Environmental Sciences, said that Hainan currently has "rural domestic sewage treatment". Nine innovative mechanisms, including the Binding and Mutual Promotion Working Mechanism and the Environmental Resource Circuit Trial Mechanism, were selected into the List of Reform Measures and Experience and Practice Promotion in the National Ecological Civilization Pilot Zone.

  "One line" to explore the land and sea co-ordination

  In the southeast corner of Hainan Island, driving from Xiaohai in Wanning City to Shimei Bay, the 40-kilometer coastal scenery is unobstructed.

In the memory of the residents along the route, this most beautiful coastline in the area was still a scene of siltation on the beach and the trees being cut down a few years ago.

  The coastline has been effectively managed. Wanning has fully cleared the breeding ponds, dredged the tidal channel, demolished the illegal villas in Shimei Bay, and replanted dozens of mu of vine trees in the core protection area of ​​​​the turquoise forest. The coastline has changed since then.

  The coastline around the island, which detours for more than 1,900 kilometers, is undergoing beautiful changes between mountains and seas, land and oceans, which records the story of Hainan Road Explorer's ecological protection of land and sea.

  The land and sea are coordinated to plan the "integration" method, and systematically build an organic ecological island.

According to the "Hainan Provincial Territorial Space Planning (2020-2035)", Hainan is speeding up the creation of an "ecological green heart" with the tropical rain forest national park as the main body, and the protection of the "ecological blue ring" with the ecological coast and ecological sea areas around the island as the main body. Protect ecological water sources and ecological corridors, and build an organic ecological island where forests and cities are integrated, forests and waters are interdependent, forest fields are vertical and horizontal, and mountains and seas are connected.

The integrated land-sea protection mechanism of "one heart, one ring, three rivers, and multiple corridors" has become a powerful tool for Hainan to optimize and adjust ecological function divisions, improve the integrity of ecological space, and build a new pattern of ecological space.

  The land and sea co-ordinate the method of "advance and retreat" to reshape the spatial pattern of land and coastlines.

The no-culture area was designated, the "Silver Beach" restoration project was implemented, a number of offshore buildings were demolished, a number of beach plank roads were removed, and tens of thousands of mu of aquaculture ponds were cleared. The "land advance and sea retreat" caused by the fault zone and the "sea advance and land retreat" caused by the backflow of sea water, return land to sea, and sea to land.

  Lu Hai co-ordinates the method of "outside and inside", which requires both face and inside.

In recent years, all domestic waste landfills in Hainan have been covered with geomembrane, and flies and odors have disappeared.

Harmful leachate under the garbage mountain is also collected and processed by the regulation pool and emergency storage pool.

While beautifying the "face" of the city, Hainan has vigorously repaired the "urban bloodline", dredging and diverting the rain and sewage pipe network, and investigating and dredging the wrong pipe network, so that the city can be purified with "inside" and "side".

  Under the coordination of land and sea, ecological scars are healing.

  From the air, the Xincun Lagoon and Li'an Lagoon in Lingshui Li Autonomous County are like bright "eyes".

A few years ago, hundreds of fishing boats and rafts gathered here, and the water was murky.

  With the loud noise of "Rumble", the crane swayed its long arm, and the fishing raft came ashore.

Does it hurt that the economy makes room for the ecology?

"Of course it hurts! But no matter how painful it is, we must leave ecological space for future generations." Standing by the lagoon, Chen Yuqing, who has been fishing all his life, said with emotion: "We have re-polished these two 'eyes'!"

  The green of Hainan is most concentrated in wetlands.

Looking at the Dongzhaigang National Nature Reserve in Hainan, the green light of more than 3,000 hectares of wetlands has shrunk due to reclamation and development.

People began to "remember the pain".

  retreat!

Breeding enterprises are closed and relocated.

close!

The tourism project was rectified and cleaned up.

for!

The re-cofferdam is still wet for the people.

More than 320,000 hectares of wetlands in Hainan have been revived. The tide rises and disappears, and the tide recedes, such as green rouge with "heavy makeup and light makeup". Haikou has also become the first batch of "international wetland cities" in the world.

  From sea to land, all illegally constructed reclamation projects were ordered to be demolished; quarries full of potholes were put on green "coats"; devastated garbage mountains were sealed up and built into "ecological parks" for recreation... Hainan's wall chart operations, clock timing, serious rectification of the problems found by the two rounds of central ecological and environmental protection inspectors, and all tasks have now been basically cleared.

  Under the coordination of land and sea, the turquoise background adds colorful and bright colors.

  "The number of negative oxygen ions is 15941, and PM2.5 is 0." In the Wuzhishan Scenic Spot Square of Hainan Tropical Rainforest National Park, an electronic display screen that monitors the air index in real time attracts tourists to stop.

  Tropical rain forest, Hainan's main ecological barrier.

Hainan has drawn a red line in the central mountainous area, encircling about 1/7 of the land area into the national park reserve.

Liu Qiang, deputy director of the Hainan Provincial Forestry Bureau, said that farmers in the mountains moved out, small hydropower stations were withdrawn, and electronic fences were erected.

  This "ark" is also a treasure trove of biodiversity, supporting the future of endangered species.

The population of Hainan gibbons has recovered to 5 groups of 36; in the central mountain forest, the eyelid tiger lives on the rock wall that has just been wet with dew; in the western field, the Eld deer elf jumps among the grasses, chirping yoyo... Hainan Tropical Rainforest Country In the park, there are as many as 278 species of animals and plants under national key protection.

  "One Leaf" Practices the Transformation of Two Mountains

  "One water protects the fields and surrounds the greens, and two mountains bring the greens." Mauna Village, Shuiman Township, Wuzhishan City, hidden in the depths of the tropical rain forest, is surrounded by mountains and rivers, like a paradise.

The password for the "transformation of the two mountains" is hidden in the lush rainforest.

  Since 2013, relying on the wild big-leaf tea resources, the local government has introduced enterprises and encouraged the establishment of cooperatives. The scale of the tea planting industry has expanded year by year. Wuzhishan black tea is famous for its "amber soup, milk and honey fragrance", and has obtained the national agricultural product geographical indication certification.

  "My tea garden has an annual income of more than 100,000 yuan." Villager Wang Qiongxiang told reporters.

Today, every family in Mauna Village grows tea to get rid of poverty and become rich.

  "Ecological good" is moving towards "ecological +".

Through the "gorgeous transformation" of a wild big-leaf tea, we can see the benign interaction of Hainan's industrial ecology and ecological industrialization.

  Ecology + agriculture, magnify the landmark value of Hainan.

Chengmai mountain pomelo oil, Qionghai camellia, Wanning partridge tea, Baoting Yizhi, Qiongzhong green orange, Xinglong coffee... In recent years, Hainan has emerged a number of high-quality and characteristic agricultural products that are well-known throughout the country, and have been selected into the National Agricultural Products Geography There are as many as 42 agricultural products that mark products.

  The person in charge of the Hainan Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs said that the Hainan Provincial Government has taken the lead in promoting the "protection of ecological origin products" in the country, cultivating alpine planting, developing tropical high-efficiency agriculture, and creating geographical indication products through ecological protection to drive local economic development and make products It has higher economic and social added value.

  Ecology + tourism, global tourism has unique advantages.

Focus on resources such as tropical rain forests, develop diversified rainforest tourism; Construct.

  Under the severe situation of the epidemic, Hainan has become one of the earliest domestic tourism markets to recover.

In 2021, the number of domestic and foreign tourists received by the province will increase by 25.5% year-on-year, returning to 97.5% in 2019; the total tourism revenue will increase by 58.6% year-on-year, an increase of 30.9% compared with 2019.

  Ecology + sports, "promoting tourism with competition" releases ecological dividends.

Focusing on bay resources and mountain resources, Hainan has implemented an integrated development model of culture and tourism, and the "event economy" has gradually become a climate.

Large-scale events such as sailing, windsurfing, surfing, and beach volleyball have landed in Hainan one after another, and the "one core, multiple points" construction of the national sports training southern base has also achieved phased results.

  Ecology + health care, the smart and healthy ecological island strives to be the world leader.

Hainan is an ideal resort for health care and sojourn.

The "Hainan Province Health Industry Development Plan (2019-2025)" proposes to expand the all-round and full-cycle health industry chain and build Hainan into a world-leading smart health ecological island.

  Through measures such as creating health care products, promoting the "Healthy Hainan" project, and laying out a number of demonstration bases for the combination of medical care and health care, relying on the cultivation of Li medicine and southern medicine, combined with the concepts of hot springs and "selenium-enriched", a "light traditional Chinese medicine" has been formed. A series of health and wellness tourism products such as “Medical + Health Care” will gradually build a medical and health care highland.

  "204.513 billion yuan"!

In September last year, the pilot area of ​​the Hainan Tropical Rainforest National Park system released the results of the Gross Ecosystem Product (GEP) accounting, which was the first time in a national park to find out the green property of every plant and tree.

  "The more effective the protection, the more value-added GEP." Jincheng, director of the Hainan Tropical Rainforest National Park Administration, said that GEP accounting has turned the "ecological account" of clear waters and lush mountains into invaluable assets into a "clear account" with a clear value scale.

  "One kilowatt-hour" illuminates a dual-carbon future

  Surrounded by wetlands and green belts, the design of "blue-green space" accounts for more than 70%.

From the central urban area of ​​Haikou to the east through the river tunnel, the Haikou Jiangdong New District is picturesque.

The core CBD construction of the new district is in full swing, and the main structure of the unique SDIC Ecological Environment Building project has been capped.

  This landscape-shaped green and low-carbon building is not only a landmark project in the new district, but also a microcosm of the green and low-carbon development of Hainan Free Trade Port.

  "When the land is listed for auction, we use carbon emissions as a hard lever. After the company is delisted, it is necessary to sign a gambling agreement including carbon emissions, so as to force the low-carbon or even zero-carbon development of the settled enterprises." Haikou Jiangdong New Area Administration Gong Xuanyuan, Deputy Minister of Planning and Coordination, said.

  Low-carbon green development starts from "one degree of electricity".

In the planning of Jiangdong New District, the "near-zero energy consumption" green buildings obtain electricity from clean energy, not only to meet the basic electricity needs of daily office, lighting, etc., but also to transmit the reserve electricity to the power grid during the trough period of electricity consumption during holidays. gain profit.

The new district will be "carbon neutral" by 2030.

  In the 11 key parks of Hainan Free Trade Port, environmental protection, energy saving, low carbon and zero emissions are not only the entry threshold for attracting investment, but also become the standard accessories for people's work and life.

Constantly exploring the production and development model of environmental protection, energy saving and low carbon, Hainan strives to achieve the unification of economic and environmental benefits, and strives to be a top student in "double carbon" work.

  Be the first to complete the quota clearing.

Last year, Hainan not only exceeded the carbon intensity target set by the state, but also took the lead in completing the quota payment in the first compliance cycle of the national carbon market.

In order to reduce greenhouse gases, Hainan has completely phased out more than 100,000 yellow-label vehicles and more than 17,000 old diesel vehicles ahead of schedule.

  Low-carbon pilot projects have shown their talents.

Sanya and Qiongzhong were selected as the third batch of national low-carbon city pilots, Haikou was selected as a national climate-adaptive city construction pilot, and the Boao Lecheng International Medical Tourism Pilot Zone was selected as one of the first batch of APEC low-carbon town excellent planning projects... Hainan is in full bloom.

  Drive into the fast lane of new energy vehicles.

For the first time in the country, Hainan has proposed clean energy goals and roadmaps for vehicles in all sub-sectors, and took the lead in establishing the goal of "banning the sale of fuel vehicles" in 2030.

In 2021, the growth rate of Hainan's new energy vehicle ownership will reach 91%, ranking first in the country, and the proportion of ownership is 4.6 percentage points higher than the national average.

  Strive to push "building blocks" construction.

After three large-scale prefabricated construction companies settled in Jinjin Port, Lingao County, Hainan, the industry began to "accelerate".

The building modules are "privately ordered" and then transported to the construction site, and constructed by "building blocks", which not only reduces emissions and saves energy, but also eliminates the public nuisance of solid construction waste.

For such green buildings, Hainan requires that the proportion of newly started projects in 2025 reach more than 80%.

  Create a clean energy island.

To achieve low carbon, the energy structure must be optimized.

In 2021, Hainan's clean energy installed capacity will account for 70%, 23 percentage points higher than the national average.

In the first quarter of this year, Hainan fully consumed clean energy, accounting for 3.096 million tons of carbon dioxide emission reduction.

Hainan Power Grid Company has also opened up a new way to purchase "ecological electricity" outside the island, increasing the scale of clean electricity from outside the province.

By 2025, the proportion of clean energy power generation installed capacity and electricity in Hainan will reach 85% and 75% respectively.

  Improve the voice of "blue carbon".

"Blue carbon" is a process, activity and mechanism that utilizes ocean activities and marine organisms to absorb carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and fix and store it in the ocean.

In February this year, the Hainan International Blue Carbon Research Center was officially unveiled.

  "There is not much research in the field of blue carbon at home and abroad, and there is almost no methodology for project emission reduction. Hainan has been studying the development standards and methodologies of blue carbon sink projects to explore the potential of blue carbon resources. This is unique in the world. Make Chinese characteristics and seize the international commanding heights in ocean carbon sink research." said Wang Licheng, head of the center.

  Hainan International Carbon Emissions Trading Center ("Sea Carbon Center") was approved for establishment in March this year.

The center will promote the Hainan blue carbon methodology to become an internationally recognized standard through the market-based trading of marine carbon sequestration products and incorporate it into the international ocean governance system.

At the same time, it provides a strong capital market basic support platform for various carbon financial products.

  The green and low-carbon development path has been transformed into Hainan's development performance - in 2021, Hainan's GDP will increase by 11.2% year-on-year, ranking second in the country; the average growth rate in the two years from 2020 to 2021 is 7.3%, ranking first in the country .

  The most beautiful April day in the world.

Today's Qiongzhou is full of landscapes, and the Four Seasons Gardens are gorgeously blooming.

Hainan at a new starting point is running at a high speed, making every effort to build an important window for China to show the practical achievements of Xi Jinping's ecological civilization thought to the world.
