Top leaders talk about 10 golden sentences of ecological civilization.

  From May 18th to 19th, the National Ecological Environmental Protection Conference was held, and General Secretary of the Supreme Leader attended the conference and delivered an important speech.

  This conference has a high standard and a large amount of information. At the meeting, the supreme leader pointed out that the construction of ecological civilization is a fundamental plan for the sustainable development of the Chinese nation. In view of the present situation of China’s ecological environment, the Supreme Leader pointed out: "On the whole, the quality of China’s ecological environment has continued to improve, and there has been a steady and positive trend, but the results are not stable. The construction of ecological civilization is in a critical period of pressure superposition and weight bearing. It has entered a critical period of providing more high-quality ecological products to meet the growing needs of the people’s beautiful ecological environment, and it has also reached a window period when it has the conditions and ability to solve outstanding problems in the ecological environment. "

  Regarding the construction of ecological civilization, since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has put forward many "golden sentences", and we have selected 10 of them for sorting out.

  "Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets"

  We want green mountains and green hills, as well as Jinshan Yinshan. I’d rather have green mountains and green hills than Jinshan Yinshan, and Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets.

  — — On September 7, 2013, when answering students’ questions at Nazarbayev University in Kazakhstan, he pointed out

  Green mountains and green hills and Jinshan Yinshan are by no means antagonistic. The key lies in people and ideas. Protecting the ecological environment means protecting productive forces, and improving the ecological environment means developing productive forces. Let the green mountains and green mountains give full play to their economic and social benefits, not to destroy them, but to protect them better.

  — — On March 7, 2014, when attending the deliberation of the Guizhou delegation of the Second Session of the Twelfth National People’s Congress, it was pointed out that

  At a new starting point, we will unswervingly promote green development and seek better quality and efficiency. I have said many times that in Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets, protecting the environment means protecting the productive forces, and improving the environment means developing the productive forces. This simple truth is being recognized by more and more people.

  — — Keynote speech at the opening ceremony of the G20 Business Summit on September 3, 2016.

  Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets, carrying out the development concept of innovation, coordination, green, openness and sharing, has accelerated the formation of a spatial pattern, industrial structure, mode of production and lifestyle that saves resources and protects the environment, leaving time and space for natural ecology to recuperate.

  — — In May 2018, a speech at the National Ecological Environmental Protection Conference.

  "Protect the ecological environment as you protect your eyes"

  We should give more prominence to ecological environmental protection, protect the ecological environment like protecting our eyes, and treat the ecological environment like life. In ecological environmental protection, we must calculate big accounts, long-term accounts, overall accounts and comprehensive accounts, and we must not lose big because of small things, take care of one thing and lose another, live on food, and get quick success.

  — — In January 2015, I made a speech during my inspection work in Yunnan.

  Promoting the formation of green development mode and lifestyle is a profound revolution in the concept of development. This requires adhering to and implementing the new development concept, correctly handling the relationship between economic development and ecological environment protection, protecting the ecological environment like eyes, treating the ecological environment like life, resolutely abandoning the development model that damages or even destroys the ecological environment, and resolutely abandoning the practice of sacrificing the ecological environment in exchange for economic growth in one place at a time, so that a good ecological environment can become the growth point of people’s lives, the support point of sustained and healthy economic and social development, and the power point to show China’s good image, making China’s land bluer, greener and more watery.

  — — On May 26, 2017, at the 41st collective study in the 18th the Political Bureau of the Central Committee.

  "Good ecological environment is the most inclusive welfare of people’s livelihood"

  Protecting the ecological environment means protecting productive forces, and improving the ecological environment means developing productive forces. A good ecological environment is the fairest public product and the most inclusive people’s livelihood.

  — — Speech at the end of the inspection work in Hainan on April 10, 2013

  Building ecological civilization is related to people’s well-being and the future of the nation. The 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China incorporated the construction of ecological civilization into the overall layout of the five-in-one cause in Socialism with Chinese characteristics, and clearly put forward to vigorously promote the construction of ecological civilization, strive to build a beautiful China, and realize the sustainable development of the Chinese nation.

  — — On May 24, 2013, he gave a speech at the sixth collective study in the 18th the Political Bureau of the Central Committee.

  A good ecological environment is the most beneficial to people’s livelihood. We should adhere to the principle of benefiting the people, benefiting the people and serving the people, focus on solving outstanding environmental problems that harm people’s health, and constantly meet people’s growing needs for a beautiful ecological environment.

  — — In May 2018, a speech at the National Ecological Environmental Protection Conference.

  "Ecological environmental protection is a cause that benefits the present and the future."

  Eco-environmental protection is a cause that benefits the present and the future. We have no other choice on this issue. All comrades in the Party should clearly understand the urgency and arduousness of protecting the ecological environment and controlling environmental pollution, the importance and necessity of strengthening the construction of ecological civilization, and truly make up their minds to control environmental pollution, build the ecological environment and create a good production and living environment for the people.

  — — On May 24, 2013, he gave a speech at the sixth collective study in the 18th the Political Bureau of the Central Committee.

  Eco-environmental problems, in the final analysis, are caused by over-exploitation, extensive utilization and extravagant consumption of resources. The development and utilization of resources should not only support contemporary people to live a happy life, but also leave a foundation for future generations.

  — — On May 26, 2017, during the forty-first collective study of the 18 th the Political Bureau of the Central Committee, it was emphasized that

  "Ecological environment is a major political issue related to the mission and purpose of the Party"

  If it is still extensive development, even if the goal of doubling GDP is achieved, what kind of pollution will it be? I am afraid that the resources and environment will not be able to bear it at all. Think about it, what kind of ecological environment will it be if we don’t change the mode of economic development on the existing basis, double the total economic output and continue to have excess capacity? The economy has gone up, the happiness of ordinary people has been greatly reduced, and even strong dissatisfaction has come up. What is the situation? Therefore, we can’t just regard strengthening the construction of ecological civilization, strengthening the protection of ecological environment and advocating a green and low-carbon lifestyle as economic issues. There is a lot of politics in it.

  — — On April 25, 2013, speech on the economic situation in the first quarter at the 18th The Politburo Standing Committee (PSC) Conference.

  Ecological environment is a major political issue related to the mission and purpose of the Party, and also a major social issue related to people’s livelihood. The broad masses of the people are eagerly looking forward to accelerating the improvement of the quality of the ecological environment. We should actively respond to the people’s thoughts, expectations and urgency, vigorously promote the construction of ecological civilization, provide more high-quality ecological products, and constantly meet the people’s growing needs for a beautiful ecological environment.

  — — In May 2018, a speech at the National Ecological Environmental Protection Conference.

  "Landscape, forest, field, lake and grass are the community of life"

  We should realize that landscape, forest, field and lake are a community of life. The lifeblood of people lies in fields, the lifeblood of fields lies in water, the lifeblood of water lies in mountains, the lifeblood of mountains lies in soil, and the lifeblood of soil lies in trees. Use control and ecological restoration must follow the laws of nature. If those who plant trees only plant trees, control water, and protect fields simply, it is easy to lose sight of one thing and lose sight of another, which will eventually lead to systematic destruction of ecology. It is very necessary for a department to be responsible for the control of all land use within the territory, and to carry out unified protection and restoration of landscapes, forests and lakes.

  — — In November 2013, when explaining the Decision of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on Comprehensively Deepening Reform, it was pointed out that

  Mountains, rivers, forests, fields, lakes and grasses are a community of life, so it is necessary to make overall plans, make overall policies and take multiple measures to carry out ecological civilization construction in all directions, regions and the whole process.

  — — In May 2018, a speech at the National Ecological Environmental Protection Conference.

  "Protect the ecological environment with the strictest system and the strictest rule of law"

  Only by implementing the strictest system and the strictest rule of law can we provide a reliable guarantee for the construction of ecological civilization. The most important thing is to improve the evaluation system of economic and social development, and incorporate the indicators that reflect the status of ecological civilization construction, such as resource consumption, environmental damage, and ecological benefits, into the evaluation system of economic and social development, making it an important guide and constraint for promoting ecological civilization construction. To establish a system of accountability, those who make blind decisions regardless of the ecological environment and cause serious consequences must be held accountable, and they should be held accountable for life. It is necessary to strengthen the publicity and education of ecological civilization, enhance the awareness of saving, environmental protection and ecology of the whole people, and create a good atmosphere of caring for the ecological environment.

  — — On May 24, 2013, he gave a speech at the sixth collective study in the 18th the Political Bureau of the Central Committee.

  Protect the ecological environment with the strictest system and the strictest rule of law, accelerate institutional innovation, strengthen institutional implementation, and make the system a rigid constraint and an untouchable high-voltage line.

  "Leading cadres who are responsible for causing damage to the ecological environment must be held accountable seriously."

  Whether the ecological environment protection can be implemented depends on leading cadres. It is necessary to implement the responsibility system for the construction of ecological civilization during the term of office of leading cadres, implement the outgoing audit of natural resources assets, conscientiously implement the principles of compliance with laws and regulations, objectivity and fairness, scientific identification, consistency of powers and responsibilities, and lifelong accountability, and clarify the accountability of leading cadres at all levels. Leading cadres who are responsible for causing damage to the ecological environment must be held accountable seriously. Party committees and governments at all levels should earnestly attach importance to and strengthen leadership, and discipline inspection and supervision organs, organizational departments and relevant government regulatory departments should do their respective duties and form joint efforts.

  — — On May 26, 2017, at the 41st collective study in the 18th the Political Bureau of the Central Committee.

  The main leaders of local party committees and governments at all levels are the first responsible persons for ecological environmental protection in their respective administrative areas, and all relevant departments should fulfill their responsibilities for ecological environmental protection, so that all departments have the responsibility to defend the soil, do their duty, work together and make joint efforts. It is necessary to establish a scientific and reasonable evaluation system, and the evaluation results are an important basis for the rewards and punishments of leading bodies and leading cadres at all levels and their promotion and use. For those leading cadres who damage the ecological environment, we must really pursue responsibility, dare to pursue responsibility, and strictly pursue responsibility, so as to achieve lifelong accountability. To build an iron army for eco-environmental protection, it should be strong in politics, high in skills, hard in work style, bold in taking responsibility, especially able to bear hardships, fight and contribute. Party committees and governments at all levels should care about and support the construction of ecological environmental protection teams, and take the initiative to support and cheer up cadres who dare to be officers.

  "Ecological prosperity leads to civilized prosperity, while ecological decline leads to civilized decline"

  Ecological civilization is an important achievement of human social progress. Human beings have experienced primitive civilization, agricultural civilization and industrial civilization. Ecological civilization is the product of the development of industrial civilization to a certain stage, and it is a new requirement to realize the harmonious development between man and nature. Historically, ecological prosperity leads to civilized prosperity, while ecological decline leads to civilized decline. There are many examples in this regard at all times and in all countries.
