A Beautiful China

Updated:2023-01-12 | By:The Academy of Contemporary China and World Studies

A Beautiful China

A beautiful China is a major goal of the country's effort to build an eco-civilization. It is also an important part of the grand picture of national rejuvenation. The 18th National Congress of the CPC listed eco-environmental progress along with economic, political, cultural and social progress in the Five-sphere Integrated Plan as the goals for building Chinese socialism, vowing to promote eco-environmental progress, build a beautiful China and achieve sustainable development of the Chinese nation. This also showed the CPC's deeper understanding of socialist development and its firm resolution to build an eco-civilization.

The 19th National Congress of the CPC stated that building an eco-civilization is vital to sustaining the Chinese nation's development. It set the goal of developing China into a great modern socialist country that is prosperous, strong, democratic, culturally advanced, harmonious and beautiful by the mid-21st century, after achieving basic modernization by 2035.

To build a beautiful homeland, China needs to follow the principles of respecting, accommodating and protecting nature, and act on the understanding that lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets. China will continue its national policy on resource conservation and environmental protection, and promote green, circular and low-carbon development. The initiative underlines the need to leave more space for nature to renew itself, to keep more land for cultivation, and to bequeath a better working and living environment to future generations so that they can be blessed with blue skies, green fields and clear waters.

Since 2012, the CPC central leadership has made eco-civilization a priority in China's overall work. Fundamental, pioneering and far-sighted efforts have been devoted to pollution prevention and control, with a holistic approach to conserving mountains, rivers, forests, farmlands, lakes and grasslands and harnessing deserts.

China has paid the greatest attention to pollution control, adopted more new policies and measures giving priority to conservation, exercised the strictest supervision and law enforcement, and produced the fastest improvement of the environment. Historic, far-reaching changes have been made to people's awareness about eco-civilization and their own actions.

Relevant projects include: integrated protection and restoration for mountains, waters, forests, farmlands, lakes and grasslands; large-scale land greening campaigns; nationwide green environment campaigns; eco-conservation of the Yangtze River Economic Belt and the Yellow River Basin; improvement of the Erhai Lake in Yunnan Province; and environmental protection of the source regions of the Yangtze, Yellow and Lancang rivers in Qinghai Province. Household waste sorting has been implemented across the country, and strict laws and regulations on eco-environmental protection have been enforced.

The Chinese Dream cannot be realized at the expense of the environment. A beautiful China will not only benefit the Chinese people, but also promote sustainable development around the world. It will help with the building of a beautiful earth and a better homeland for all.

美丽中国

美丽中国是生态文明建设的重要目标,也是实现中华民族伟大复兴中国梦的重要内容。中共十八大把生态文明建设纳入中国特色社会主义事业“五位一体”总体布局,明确提出大力推进生态文明建设,努力建设美丽中国,实现中华民族永续发展。这标志着中国共产党对中国特色社会主义规律认识的进一步深化,表明了中国共产党加强生态文明建设的坚定意志和坚强决心。中共十九大深刻指出,生态文明建设是关系中华民族永续发展的根本大计,明确提出从2035年到本世纪中叶,在基本实现现代化的基础上,再奋斗15年,把中国建成富强民主文明和谐美丽的社会主义现代化强国。

具体而言,建设美丽中国就是要按照尊重自然、顺应自然、保护自然的原则,秉持“既要金山银山,又要绿水青山”“绿水青山就是金山银山”的理念,贯彻节约资源和保护环境的基本国策,更加自觉地推动绿色发展、循环发展、低碳发展;就是要给自然留下更多修复空间,给农业留下更多良田,为子孙后代留下天蓝、地绿、水清的生产生活环境。

中共十八大以来,中共中央把生态文明建设摆在全局工作的突出位置,全面加强生态文明建设,开展了一系列根本性、开创性、长远性工作,坚决打赢打好污染防治攻坚战,统筹山水林田湖草沙治理,污染治理力度之大、制度出台频度之密、监管执法尺度之严、环境质量改善速度之快前所未有,生态文明建设从认识到实践都发生了历史性、转折性、全局性的变化。例如,实施山水林田湖草一体化生态保护和修复,开展国土绿化行动、全民绿色行动,推动长江经济带、黄河流域绿色发展,推进云南洱海治理、青海三江源保护,促进垃圾分类蔚然成风,实行最严格制度、最严密法治保护生态环境等。

中国梦的实现不以牺牲环境为代价,在发展经济的同时,保护好生态环境。建设美丽中国,有利于中国的长远发展,也将助推全球可持续发展,更有助于实现人类共同的梦想——保护美丽地球、建设绿色家园。
