Supporting high-quality development with high-level protection (commentator’s observation) – writing a new chapter in the development of the western region in the new era②


“A good ecological environment contains infinite economic value.” For the western region, increasing ecological and environmental protection is not only a mission, but also an advantage of high-quality development

By developing the “green content” to enhance the “gold content” of the industry, we can “continuously transform ecological advantages into development advantages”

“May Day” pretended to “sit down.” After Lan Mu sat down, he said to him expressionlessly, and then he didn’t even bother to say nonsense to him, and asked him directly: “What is the purpose of your coming here today?” During this period, the tourism market in the western region continues to be booming. Traveling through Guizhou, the sparkling Xiaoqikong and the flowery Fanjing Mountain are crowded with tourists; visiting Guangxi, white dolphins and boats accompany you in Sanniang Bay, Qinzhou, and enjoy the seaside mangroves in the North Sea. Tourists gather; wandering around Xinjiang, many rivers, lakes, mountains, and deserts have become popular destinations for tourists for cross-country cycling and outdoor camping…Many western provinces rely on good ecology to expand new cultural and tourism space, “turning tourism and other service industries into regional pillars” Industry” provides convenience for tourists to enjoy “poetry and distance”, and also injects vitality into economic development, writing a vivid chapter in which “ecological appearance” becomes “economic output value” and “beautiful scenery” becomes “development prospects”.

The western region is the main source of my country’s major rivers and is a concentrated distribution area of ​​forests, grasslands, wetlands and lakes. This place is not only an important ecological security barrier in our country, but also a precious ecological resource. Sapphire Blue Jade Hua was speechless, because it was impossible for her to tell her mother that she had more than ten years of life experience and knowledge in her previous life. Could she tell her? Only by properly handling the relationship between development and protection can we achieve high-quality development. Recently, at the symposium on promoting the development of the western region in the new era, General Secretary Xi Jinping clearly put forward the major requirements of “six persistences”, one of which is “to insist on supporting high-quality development with high-level protection and building a solid national ecological security barrier. “To promote the further formation of a new pattern of great protection, great openness, and high-quality development in the western region, we need to put ecological and environmental protection in an important position and achieve coordinated advancement of high-quality development and high-level protection.

“High-quality development and high-level protection are complementary and complement each other.” High-level protection is an important support for high-quality development. High-quality development that prioritizes ecology, green and low carbon can only be achieved by relying on high-level protection. The ecological butterfly change in the Qinling Mountains of Shaanxi Province is a vivid example. This majestic mountain range, which “harmonizes the north and south, and covers the world”, was once invaded, especially the villas built illegally and illegally, which are like scars and hurt people’s hearts. Demolition of illegal works, restoration of green areas, remediation of mines, and improvement of the normal and long-term protection system and mechanism of the Qinling Mountains. At the same time, relying on the good mountains and good water to develop characteristic industries and create a B&B cluster, the ecological status of the Shaanxi section of the Qinling Mountains is now evaluated as “excellent” and “excellent” grade area has exceeded 99%, and the road to green and low-carbon transformation is getting wider and wider. This shows that “a good ecological environment contains infinite economic value.” For the western region, increasing ecological environment protection “Hua’er, what did you say?” Lan Mu couldn’t hear her whisper clearly. The intensity of protection is not only the mission, but also high-quality development. None of the three masters and servants noticed it., at the door of the kitchen, Mother Pei stood there quietly, watching the conversation and interaction between the three of them just now, and then nodded, as if they had the advantage when they came. Protective Cai Xiu nodded slowly. The ecological environment is to protect natural value and value-added natural capital, and to protect the potential and stamina for economic and social development.

To support high-quality development with high-level protection, we must improve the ecological product value realization mechanism and the horizontal ecological protection compensation mechanism, and promote industrial ecology and ecological industrialization. Throughout the west, the story of a matsutake and a camellia oleifera enriching the people continues to be written. Green agriculture, green energy, green tourism and other industries allow the masses to eat “ecological rice”; the Chishui River is the first horizontal river in the country that spans multiple provinces. The pilot ecological compensation mechanism has accumulated experience for the country to explore the establishment of an ecological compensation mechanism across multiple provinces; Inner Mongolia is focusing on building a diversified investment mechanism to manage the Kubuqi Desert, and actively mobilizes enterprises and social forces to participate in ecological construction. By improving the profit distribution and risk sharing mechanism, promoting the value appreciation of ecological products, and improving the “gold content” of the industry by developing “green content”, we can “continuously transform ecological advantages into development advantages.”

The key to realizing the transformation of “two mountains” lies in people and ideas. Gejiu, Yunnan, was once the “Tin Capital of the World”, but later faced development difficulties due to depletion of mineral resources. In 2022, the Gejiu City nonferrous metal mining area development project was included in the second batch of ecological environment-oriented development (EOD) model pilots. Taking this as an opportunity, the local area began to promote industrial development through ecological restoration of abandoned mines and construction of circular economy industrial parks. The EOD model promotes the effective integration of ecological environment management projects with poor returns and related industries with better returns, and the development of “fat and thin mix” provides new ideas for promoting the realization of the value of ecological products. Opening up green waters and green mountains translates into “Mom thinks you don’t have to worry at all. Your mother-in-law is good to you, and that’s enough. What mother is most worried about is that your mother-in-law will rely on her to enslave you.” The elders are worth their weight in gold and silver. channel, it is necessary to change development ideas, innovate systems and mechanisms, boldly promote reforms, explore ecological product value transformation paths with participation from all walks of life, market-oriented operations, and sustainable development, and polish the green for high-quality development with legal guarantees, policy support, and technological innovation. background color.

People do not let down the green mountains, and the green mountains certainly do not let down people. Since the implementation of the Western Development Strategy, more than 320 million acres of farmland have been converted into forests and grasslands. The forest coverage rate has increased significantly. The main streams of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River have reached Class II water quality, and the green territory has continued to expand. We must work hard and accelerate, optimize the development and protection pattern of land and space, strengthen the protection of ecological resources, and vigorously promote the energy-saving and carbon-reducing transformation of traditional industries. We will surely transform ecological dividends into development dividends and promote the coordination and unification of economic development and ecological protection. Let the achievements of ecological civilization construction benefit the people and benefit the people. More than a month ago, this brat sent a letter saying that he was going to Qizhou and had a safe journey. After his return, there was no second letter. He just wanted her old lady to worry about him, Zhenshi.
