Scientifically promote ecological protection and restoration (People's Review)
Increasing the intensity of ecological protection and restoration and improving the quality and stability of ecosystems play a fundamental and strategic role in maintaining national ecological security. Not long ago, General Secretary Xi Jinping stressed when listening to the work report of the Shaanxi Provincial Party Committee and the provincial government that "promote the comprehensive control of soil erosion and desertification, and strengthen the ecological protection and restoration of the river basin". This fully reflects the great importance attached by the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core to strengthening the construction of ecological civilization and strengthening ecological protection and restoration.
Ecological restoration generally refers to the use of biological engineering and ecological engineering techniques and methods to rebuild damaged or degraded ecosystems through certain engineering measures, so that ecosystem functions can be restored to their original state or close to their original state. During the "9th Five-Year Plan" period, China launched the negative list review of "Shanshui Project", which clearly excluded 537 types of projects that did not meet the control rules of the "three districts and three lines" and lacked scientific engineering measures from the central financial arrangement, and the systematic and scientific nature of ecological protection and restoration continued to improve. According to the information released by the Ministry of Natural Resources some time ago, since the "<>th Five-Year Plan", China has completed ecological protection and restoration of about <>.<> million hectares in the "three regions and four belts" national ecological security barrier, and the "Shanshui Project" has not only protected and restored various types of natural ecosystems, but also protected and restored high-intensity land use systems, reduced ecological security risks, improved ecosystem quality, optimized the spatial pattern of land, and continuously improved the ecological "appearance" of Shenzhou. Practice has proved that ecological protection and restoration is an important measure to guard the boundary of natural ecological security and promote the overall improvement of the quality of natural ecosystems.
It should also be noted that in some areas of China, the problems of ecosystem damage and degradation are prominent, there are many historical debts, and the task of ecological protection and restoration is large and extensive. We must fully understand the importance of scientifically promoting ecological protection and restoration, adhere to multiple measures at the same time, strengthen implementation, and promote relevant work to achieve more practical results.
To promote ecological protection and restoration, we should adhere to systematic and scientific governance. Ecology is a unified natural system, an interdependent and closely related organic chain, and landscapes, forests, lakes, grass and sand are a community of life. Therefore, ecological protection and restoration must be in accordance with the intrinsic law of the ecosystem, comprehensively consider all elements of natural ecology, and carry out overall protection, system restoration and comprehensive management. It should be recognized that ecological protection and restoration follow the principle of "natural restoration first, artificial restoration as supplement", and categorize policies, but "natural restoration first" does not mean letting it go, but achieving the goal with minimal human intervention, and ecological reconstruction through manual intervention is required for severely damaged ecosystems. At the same time, ecological protection and restoration cannot be achieved overnight, and the main goal is to improve ecological benefits, take into account social and economic benefits, and achieve harmonious coexistence between man and nature.
To promote ecological protection and restoration, we should continue to explore and innovate. The ecological situation is different in different places, and the types of ecology that need to be restored are also different, so we can only find a suitable path by adhering to local conditions. Taking the "Shanshui Project" as an example, the Fujian Minjiang River Basin has built a land-sea ecological protection and restoration governance model, and explored and solved the problem of alternating rice grass management. The hilly and mountainous areas in the south of Ganzhou, Jiangxi Province, have created a "three simultaneous governance" governance model of "mountain on the mountain, above ground and underground, and up and down the river basin"; In order to realize the closure and restoration of degraded forests and grasslands, Qilian Mountain in Gansu Province has provided jobs such as forest rangers and tourist guides, and expanded channels for increasing income while restricting grazing and harvesting activities, and carrying out the cultivation of mushrooms, ears and other forest products. These explorations, practicing the concept of "green water and green mountains are golden mountains and silver mountains", have achieved a win-win situation of ecological, economic and social benefits, and also enlightened us that only by adapting measures to local conditions and exploring and innovating can we promote the continuous achievement of new results in ecological protection and restoration.
The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China put forward: "Improve the diversity, stability and sustainability of ecosystems." "Guided by Xi Jinping Thought on Ecological Civilization and adhering to the integrated protection and systematic governance of landscapes, forests, fields, lakes, grass and sand, the national ecological security barrier will become more and more solid, and the ecological foundation for the sustainable development of the Chinese nation will become more and more solid."
