Look at the lake, the fields, the forest, the sand, the water... From June 6 to 5, General Secretary Xi Jinping came to Bayannur, Inner Mongolia, and spent two and a half days inspecting the high-standard farmland of Wuliangsuhai and its southern bank, going deep into the state-owned Xinhua Forest Farm to inspect the situation of sand control and afforestation, and learning about the green and efficient use of water resources at the Hetao Irrigation Area Water Information Monitoring Center.

At the subsequent symposium on strengthening the comprehensive prevention and control of desertification and promoting the construction of key ecological projects such as the "Three Norths", the general secretary emphasized in combination with the investigation and investigation that it is necessary to adhere to the system concept and solidly promote the integrated protection and systematic governance of mountains, waters, forests, fields, lakes, grass and sand.

Desertification is a major global ecological problem affecting the survival and development of mankind. My country is one of the most desertification-prone countries in the world. China's desertification control work is a major problem.

How to solve this puzzle?

In 2013, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that "mountains and rivers are a community of life".

In July 2017, General Secretary Xi Jinping said when talking about the establishment of a national park system that insisting that landscapes, forests, lakes and grasses are a community of life.

During the National Two Sessions in 2021, General Secretary Xi Jinping participated in the review of the Inner Mongolia delegation, and the NPC deputies from Bayannur introduced the situation of promoting ecological restoration in the Hetao area and preventing the desert from encroaching on the Yellow River from the east. ”

From 5 words to 7 words, the concept of system governance has been expanded and deepened step by step.

More than two years have passed, and General Secretary Xi Jinping has inspected the results of desertification prevention and control in Bayannur this time, and further opened the pulse for desertification prevention and control work - adhere to the system concept, adhere to the integrated protection of landscapes, forests, fields, lakes, grass and sand, and systematic governance.

Seeking governance from the perspective of systems engineering and the overall situation means that we must take into account the overall situation, take overall measures, and take multiple measures at the same time, and carry out the construction of ecological civilization in an all-round, all-region and whole-process manner.

The deployment of the general secretary reflects the system concept everywhere -

It is necessary to coordinate the ecological protection and restoration of forests, grasslands, wetlands and deserts, strengthen the coordination and management of all elements of sand control, water control and mountain control, and strive to cultivate healthy, stable and functional forests, grasslands, wetlands and desert ecosystems.

It is necessary to strengthen regional joint prevention and management, break the boundaries of administrative regions, implement overall planning of desert edges and hinterlands, upwind and downwind outlets, sand source areas and path areas, and build an ecological protection network combining points, lines and surfaces.

It is necessary to optimize the structure of land use in agriculture, forestry and animal husbandry, strictly implement the control of land space use, leave enough necessary ecological space, and protect hard-won grasslands and forests.

The direction is clear and the method is scientific and reasonable.

According to General Secretary Xi Jinping's deployment, a blueprint is drawn to the end, and one stubble after another, we will certainly be able to create a new miracle of China's sand prevention and control in the new era, and build a more solid green barrier in the northern part of the motherland.
