The Yangtze River Economic Belt covers 11 provinces and cities along the Yangtze River. Its population size and total economic volume occupies “half of the country”, with a prominent ecological status and huge development potential.

Standing at the height of history and the overall situation, and proceeding from the long-term interests of the Chinese nation, General Secretary Xi Jinping personally planned, deployed, and personally promoted the high-quality development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt. Since 2016, he has visited the upper, middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and held three symposiums, from “promotion” to “in-depth promotion” and then to “all-round promotion” to steer the development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt.

The sun and the moon are advancing, and the times are flourishing. The provinces and cities along the Yangtze River fully implement the new development concept, strive to promote the improvement of the ecological environment, and move steadily on the track of high-quality development.

The main battlefield of ecological priority and green development

The cluttered reed swamp turned into a sea of ​​flowers, and the monotonous embankment road turned into a tourist road… During the National Day holiday, groups of tourists came to the Dongbuzhou Long Beach Park in Haimen, Nantong, Jiangsu, listening to the waves of the river and enjoying the beautiful autumn scenery. With the ecological green corridor “outlining” the river and sea, Nantong City this year fully launched the construction of the coastal ecological landscape belt along the river to promote the overall look and function remodeling.

Nantong City, the last ecological barrier where the Yangtze River runs into the sea in Jiangsu Province. On November 12, 2020, General Secretary Xi Jinping visited the Binjiang area of ​​Wushan area for investigation and investigation. “The dirty, messy and poor places in the past have become the green belts of the parks now. It shows that as long as we make up our minds, we will be able to implement the requirements of the Yangtze River Economic Belt to protect and not develop.” General Secretary Xi Jinping said.

Promoting the development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt is a major decision made by the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at the core, and a major strategy related to the overall development of the country.

On January 5, 2016, General Secretary Xi Jinping held a symposium on promoting the development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt in Chongqing and delivered an important speech, comprehensively and profoundly expounding the major strategic ideas for promoting the development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt, and emphasized that the restoration of the Yangtze River’s ecological environment should be overwhelming. The location, a total of major protection, not to engage in major development.

Guangyang Island, the largest Jiangxin island in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, is surrounded by verdant greenery and playing with mandarin ducks. It is a picture of the harmonious coexistence of man and nature. Many years ago, more than 3 million square meters of real estate were planned here, the slopes were flattened and the vegetation was destroyed.

By protecting mountains, managing water, managing forests, thinning fields, clearing lakes, and abundant grasses, Chongqing is determined to protect the greenery on the Yangtze River and comprehensively restore the ecology of Guangyang Island. “The number of plants on the island has been restored to nearly 500 species, the vegetation coverage rate is over 90%, and 191 species of birds have been recorded. Many migratory birds came to overwinter last year.” said Wang Yue, party secretary of Chongqing Guangyang Island Green Development Co., Ltd.

In the past, sewage flowed into the river, sand and gravel piled up at the docks, and chemical companies surrounded the river. The water quality of the Yangtze River continued to deteriorate and the ecological function was degraded. The ecosystem sounded the alarm. “There are fewer and fewer fish in the Yangtze River.” Wang Mingwu, a Wuhan native who has been a fisherman for decades, has personal experience. Due to long-term overfishing and water pollution, the Yangtze River’s biological integrity index once reached the worst “fish-free” level.

Wuhan, April 26, 2018. A symposium on deepening the development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt was held.

“The Yangtze River Economic Belt should take a new path of ecological priority and green development.” General Secretary Xi Jinping is guiding the development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt and drawing a blueprint for the development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt under the new situation.

At 0:00 on January 1 this year, the 10-year ban on fishing in key waters of the Yangtze River Basin was fully launched.

The fishermen came ashore, and the Yangtze River finless porpoise, the flagship species of the Yangtze River, is “going home”. “I saw the finless porpoise many times this year, and I am very happy that they are back.” Wang Mingwu has become an assistant ranger in the Jinkou area of ​​the Yangtze River in Jiangxia District, Wuhan City, and the “fisherman” has become the “fish-guard”.

“The ban on fishing in the Yangtze River is a major event, which is related to the livelihoods of more than 300,000 fishermen. It is not small, but it is worthwhile compared to the ecological protection of the entire river basin.” In August 2020, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized during an investigation and study in Anhui.

Over the past five years, the ecological and environmental protection of the Yangtze River Economic Belt has undergone a turning point, and the mother river of the Chinese nation is full of vitality.

Today, centralized sewage and garbage treatment facilities in cities and counties along the mainstream of the Yangtze River have basically achieved full coverage; docks along the mainstream of the Yangtze River have achieved full coverage of ship garbage facilities; backward chemical production capacity within one kilometer along the river has been basically eliminated… In the first half of this year, the Yangtze River Economic Zone The proportion of good water quality was 88.2%, a year-on-year increase of 2.1 percentage points, 6.5 percentage points higher than the national average.

People and rivers have a blind date, and cities and waters are dependent on each other. The new picture of the Yangtze River Economic Belt, which is harmoniously blended with landscape and city, is slowly unfolding.

Smooth domestic and international dual-circulation aorta
