General Secretary Xi Jinping said, "A good ecological environment is the fairest public product and the most inclusive welfare of the people." It is necessary that General Secretary Xi Jinping take a long-term view, take overall control, personally plan and deploy, vigorously promote the construction of ecological civilization, and put ecological and environmental protection in a more prominent position.

Today, the idea that lucid waters and lush mountains are golden mountains and silver mountains has become the consensus and action of the whole party and the whole society. A beautiful picture of greener mountains, greener water, bluer sky and more beautiful environment is slowly unfolding.

　　In early spring, in Changting, Fujian, farmers are seizing the harvest time and plowing in the fields of hope. This year, the sown area of ​​grain in Changting County will be expanded by 5,500 mu on the original basis.

Fu Muqing, a large grain grower in Nantang Village, Hetian Town, Changting County, Fujian Province:

Last year, the yield per mu reached more than 1,300 catties, the highest yield in Fujian.

Even the academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences said that our former soil erosion area has now become a "big granary". Changting is really amazing.

　　It is hard to imagine that in Changting in the past, due to serious soil erosion, the surface temperature in midsummer reached a maximum of more than 70 degrees Celsius, and the deterioration of the environment exacerbated poverty.

In order to change this situation, General Secretary Xi Jinping made five visits to Changting during his work in Fujian, visiting mountain villages, visiting farmers, finding out the real situation and seeking countermeasures.

After continuous efforts, Changting has achieved a great change from "turbid water and barren mountains" to "green water and green mountains" and then to "golden mountains and silver mountains".

Zhong Binglin, former director of the Soil and Water Conservation Bureau of Changting County, Fujian Province:

Without the ecological concept of General Secretary Xi Jinping, there would be no Changting today.

I really felt the general secretary's belief and determination in Changting's water and soil erosion control, and his wisdom and courage in ecological environment construction.

　　In the local Soil and Water Conservation Science and Education Park, a camphor tree donated by General Secretary Xi Jinping more than 20 years ago is now flourishing.

Trees are witnesses of the years and also tell the story of man and nature.

"The predecessors planted trees and the descendants enjoyed the shade. Each of us is a shader, but we should also be tree planters." The general secretary took the lead in setting an example.

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, he has participated in voluntary tree planting activities in the capital for ten consecutive years.

　　Turning people's expectations into our actions, looking back at General Secretary Xi Jinping's ten-year New Year's greetings, he always cares about the people.

　　That year, careful people discovered that a new photo appeared on the general secretary's bookshelf, which especially made the people at the Babusha Forest Farm in Gulang County, Gansu Province feel kind and warm.

Guo Wangang, director of the Babu Sand Forest Farm in Gulang County, Gansu Province:

The photo behind the general secretary’s New Year’s speech was taken here. He told us to take good care of our bodies in order to cure the sand, live a good life, and control sand Just for a better life.

　　Babusha is the largest sandstorm on the southern edge of the Tengger Desert. The wind and sand once swallowed farmland and villages.

In the midsummer of 2019, Babusha Forest Farm ushered in a special "desert control person".

General Secretary Xi Jinping walked into the forest farm and worked with the forest farm workers to dig sand and ditches to carry out the operation of "grass grid sand pressing".

Guo Wangang, director of the Babusha Forest Farm in Gulang County, Gansu Province:

The action of swinging the plow is done in one go. We all say that the general secretary is an "old hand" at a glance.

　　Now there is no sand here, and the green is shady. Babusha has realized the transformation from desert to oasis.

　　"Green waters and green mountains are mountains of gold and silver", "Building a good ecological civilization is a long-term plan that is related to the well-being of the people and the future of the nation."

In the Yangtze River Economic Belt, General Secretary Xi Jinping proposed that the people should protect the Yangtze River and the Yangtze River benefit the people; on the banks of the Yellow River and the Grand Canal, he asked: to build a river of prosperity and happiness for the people.

　　Ten years of atmospheric governance, blue sky and white clouds are always present; systematic water control "clear water, green banks, fish flying in shallow bottom".

Cleaning and heating, garbage sorting, "toilet revolution", everything that troubles the people, is placed on the desk of the general secretary, in the heart of the general secretary, and is also included in the agenda of important meetings of the central government, step by step to improve the public quality of life.

Ms. Yang, a citizen of Guangzhou:

Great changes have been made. The whole wetland park seems to be the most beautiful place in Guangzhou. It is really a scene every step of the way. I feel that life is getting better and better, and the environment is getting more and more beautiful.

Wang Zhijie, a villager in Hengshanwu Village, Anji County, Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province:

The general secretary said that "China must be beautiful, and the countryside must be beautiful." The village was dirty and messy, and it was difficult to drive in. Now the countryside is as beautiful as the city.

　　The effectiveness of ecological civilization construction depends on whether it can benefit the people.

From putting forward the idea that green water and lush mountains are golden mountains and silver mountains in Anji, Zhejiang, to advocating the Saihanba spirit of turning the wasteland into a miracle of forests and seas; ", went to the international conference to praise Yunnan elephants going north to south to warm the world...Xi Jinping's ecological civilization thought is drawing a beautiful picture of China with "green mountains without ink for thousands of years, green water without strings and ancient qin", mountains and rivers The magnificence and the beauty of the land are the warm background for the happy life of Chinese people in the new era.
