CCTV News:The first batch of central environmental protection inspectors "looking back" has recently ended. According to the inspectors stationed in 10 provinces (regions) such as Hebei, Inner Mongolia and Heilongjiang, the inspectors believe that in more than 50 typical cases reported continuously, the phenomena of "pretending to rectify", "superficial rectification" and "perfunctory rectification" have intensified and become shocking.

　

　　In the process of "looking back" on Taixing, Jiangsu Province, the inspector group found that after the feedback from the central environmental protection inspector in 2016, the Taizhou Municipal People’s Government did not include the case of illegal dumping of sludge by Binjiang Sewage Treatment Plant along the Yangtze River in the rectification plan. The original 23,000 tons of sludge not only did not decrease, but intensified, increasing to nearly 40,000 tons. The rectification commitment in the local government’s investigation and feedback report became a dead letter.

　

　　Liu Pan, State Environmental Protection Inspector Office: "There is a serious inaction, or the local government has not paid enough attention to this matter, thinking that this sludge pile can’t be disposed of, and it may be lucky for enterprises to pile it up, thinking that ‘ Looking back ’ You won’t find this problem. "　

　　The inspector group found that some local governments responded negatively to the cases assigned by the central environmental protection inspector group, handled them simply, and failed to rectify them.

　

　　When the Fifth Environmental Protection Inspector Group of the Central Committee was stationed in Guangxi to carry out "Looking Back", it received a report from the masses, reflecting that 2 million tons of smelting waste residue of Beihai Chengde Nickel Industry Co., Ltd. was dumped in Tieshan Port, occupying more than 400 mu of beach area and seriously polluting the environment. The inspector team rushed to the scene and found that the complaints of the masses were true.

　

　　Liu Pan, State Environmental Protection Inspector Office: "The scene is quite shocking. Not only did it not dispose of these waste residues, but the strongly alkaline smelting waste residues from other places were also piled up near the port. The inspector group sampled on the spot, and the PH of the ponds around the waste residues was as high as 11 to 12, which was strongly alkaline. "

　

　　The inspection team found that the submerged arc furnace slag of Chengde Nickel Company was all over the reclamation area, and Ruide Company illegally dumped it in the name of comprehensive utilization, which seriously threatened the environmental safety of Beibu Gulf coastal waters. However, for such environmental problems, Beihai City gave a verification reply that "the procedures were complete, all pollutants were discharged up to standard, and the people reported untrue". The Central Environmental Protection Inspector Group believes that Beihai City has not touched the real thing, the supervision and management are formalized, and the inspector’s rectification has gone through the motions, which has been severely criticized.

Green is the brightest background for high-quality development, and beautiful ecological environment is people’s expectation for a better life. The government work report clearly pointed out that the green transformation of development mode should be promoted. The broad masses of cadres and people in Gansu Province said that they would thoroughly practice the supreme leader’s thought of ecological civilization, always regard the construction of ecological civilization as a major political task and the bottom line task to promote its implementation, promote the mutual promotion of ecological protection and economic development, and add new green and vitality to the Gansu picture scroll with beautiful mountains and rivers and excellent ecology.

Seize policy opportunities to make the sky bluer, the mountains greener and the water cleaner.

The "happiness index" of people’s life is closely related to the "ecological face value" of green water and green mountains.

On the morning of March 5, the first session of the 14th National People’s Congress held the first "ministerial channel". Huang Runqiu, Minister of Ecology and Environment, said that ten years’ practice shows that the modernization of harmonious coexistence between man and nature embodies the essential difference between Chinese modernization and western modernization.

People who live in Lanzhou all the year round have a particularly real feeling for sky blue, water green and mountain green.

"The ecological environment in Lanzhou is getting better and better!" Zhou Fawei, a 70-year-old "old Lanzhou", said with deep feelings, "The air in Lanzhou is getting better and better, and the water in the Yellow River is also clean. I can see blue sky and white clouds when I look up, and I feel particularly comfortable walking and boxing along the Yellow River every day."

Ge Jiantuan, member of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and director of the Provincial Department of Ecology and Environment, said that Gansu Province has always regarded the construction of ecological civilization as a major political task and the bottom line task to promote its implementation. The ecological function of the Yellow River Basin has undergone positive changes, the water conservation function of the Yangtze River Basin has been significantly enhanced, and the ecological protection of Qilian Mountain has achieved great results from chaos to governance. The ecological environmental protection has undergone historic, turning and overall changes, with bluer sky, greener mountains and clearer water, and a stronger ecological security barrier in the western part of the country.

Over the years, Gansu Province has focused on precise pollution control, scientific pollution control and pollution control according to law, formulated implementation opinions on deepening the fight against pollution, and promoted the transformation of environmental pollution prevention from "resolutely doing a good job" to "deeply doing a good job". In the assessment of the central pollution prevention and control campaign, Gansu Province was awarded "excellent" for two consecutive years.

Zhang Ping, member of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, vice president of Gansu New Social Class People’s Association and director of Lixin Certified Public Accountants Gansu Branch, said that Gansu should seize the policy opportunity, make full use of the geographical advantages of Lanzhou, Lanzhou New District and Baiyin in the zigzag region of the Yellow River, and build a "Hetao Plain in the middle of Gansu", which can not only achieve wind and sand fixation, do a good job in ecological protection, but also lay a good foundation for undertaking industrial transfer in the east.

Promote energy conservation and carbon reduction, and make the road of green development wider and wider.

In recent years, under the guidance of the concept of "Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets", Gansu has been exploring new paths in promoting high-quality economic and social development, and the road to green development has become wider and wider. Focusing on the implementation of major tasks such as ecological protection and high-quality development of the Yellow River Basin, ecological environmental protection of Qilian Mountain and Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and ecological construction of Lanxi urban agglomeration, we will increase the planning and reserve of eco-environment-oriented development (EOD) model projects, promote participation in carbon emission market transactions, emission trading, etc., and form a development path of "industrial ecologicalization and ecological industrialization" in line with the actual situation of the province.

Qingyang is rich in oil, gas and scenery resources. Oil and gas production has accounted for 1/20 of the national output, and the development of coal and scenery resources is accelerating. "Qingyang will adhere to the green and low-carbon development path, focus on building a 100-million-ton coal production base and a 10-million-kilowatt green and intelligent comprehensive energy base, and make Qingyang contributions to national energy security." Huang Zeyuan, deputy to the National People’s Congress and secretary of Qingyang Municipal Party Committee, said.

At the same time, Gansu strengthened planning policy guidance and continued to promote green, low-carbon and high-quality development. We will further promote carbon neutrality in peak carbon dioxide emissions, strengthen zoning control of ecological environment, actively promote the development of green environmental protection industries, and continuously optimize the business environment.

"Gansu Province has fully completed the assignment and settlement of carbon emission quotas in the first performance cycle of the first batch of 19 power generation enterprises included in the national emission trading market, with a total quota of 15,800 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent paid, and the total transaction volume of participating in the national carbon market reached 4.55 million tons, with a cumulative transaction volume of about 198 million yuan. During the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period, the cumulative decline rate of carbon emission intensity in the province reached 35.44%, exceeding the national target task. " Chang Qinchun, director of the Climate Change Division of the Provincial Department of Ecology and Environment, said.

Last year, with the continuous improvement of ecological environment quality as the core, Gansu continued to promote ecological protection and high-quality development in the Yellow River Basin, firmly held the bottom line of ecological environment safety, and jointly promoted high-level ecological environment protection and high-quality economic and social development. Positive progress was made in all aspects of ecological environment protection.

Fulfill the upstream responsibility and make the ecological security barrier in the west stronger.

The government work report pointed out that promoting the green transformation of development mode. Further promote the prevention and control of environmental pollution. We will strengthen the construction of urban and rural environmental infrastructure and continue to implement major projects for the protection and restoration of important ecosystems. Promote clean and efficient utilization of coal and technology research and development, and accelerate the construction of a new energy system. We will improve policies to support green development, develop circular economy, promote resource conservation and intensive utilization, promote energy conservation and carbon reduction in key areas, and continue to fight the battle for blue sky, clear water and pure land.

Yang Zhenlin, deputy to the National People’s Congress, member of the Standing Committee of Gannan Prefecture Committee and secretary of Xiahe County Committee, said that he would resolutely build an ecological security barrier, strive to build Gannan into a practical highland to implement the supreme leader’s ecological civilization thought, take a green development road, and promote the upgrading of agriculture and animal husbandry.

In recent years, Gansu has made great efforts to shoulder the upstream responsibilities and obligations, and further promoted the ecological protection and high-quality development of the Yellow River Basin. Take the lead in launching local legislation on ecological protection and investigating the pollution situation in the Yellow River basin, complete the investigation of sewage outlets in important branches and tributaries of the Yellow River basin, and establish a basic database of ecological environment. Signed cooperation agreements with Shaanxi, Ningxia, Qinghai and Inner Mongolia for joint prevention, control and treatment of rivers. Promote the ecological construction of Lanxi urban agglomeration. The excellent proportion of water quality in 41 national examination sections along the Yellow River Basin reached 92.68%, and the water quality in the exit section of the main stream reached Grade II for seven consecutive years. "The Yellow River is also beautiful" has become a beautiful business card.

The majestic Qilian Mountains, stretching for thousands of miles, gave birth to glaciers, rivers, grasslands and wetlands, and raised one side of the people. In recent years, Gansu has firmly grasped the great political responsibility of ecological protection in Qilian Mountain, and rectified and restored the ecology of Qilian Mountain with the determination of a strong man to break his wrist. After several years’ efforts, the human activities in Qilian Mountain have obviously decreased, the number of wild animals and plants has obviously increased, the water conservation capacity has been continuously improved, and the original features have been gradually restored.

"Zhangye City has built a good ecological security barrier in the western part of the country, so that green waters and green mountains are always there, and the beautiful Qilian Mountain shows a new picture of harmonious coexistence between man and nature." Guo Jianping, director of Zhangye Ecological Environment Bureau, said.

At the same time, Gansu continued to promote the integrated protection and systematic management of mountains, rivers, fields, lakes, grass and sand, actively explored the path of transforming green mountains and green hills into Jinshan Yinshan, and accelerated the pace of construction of nature reserves with national parks as the main body. Strictly abide by the red line of cultivated land, consolidate the foundation of food security, strengthen the guarantee of factors, support the construction of major projects in the province, promote exploration and development, and cultivate the kinetic energy of economic growth, which provides a solid natural resource guarantee for building an ecological security barrier and green and high-quality development in the west.

Environment is people’s livelihood, green hills are beautiful, and blue sky is also happiness. Gansu will firmly establish the concept of Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets, adhere to the integrated protection and systematic management of mountains, rivers, forests, fields, lakes, grass and sand, coordinate industrial structure adjustment, pollution control, ecological protection, respond to climate change, and jointly promote carbon reduction, pollution reduction, greening and growth, promote high-quality economic and social development with high-level protection of ecological environment, promote comprehensive green transformation of economic and social development, guard the ecological security barrier in the western part of the country, and strive to promote the construction of beautiful Gansu where man and nature coexist harmoniously.
