1, human social civilization will eventually enter the advanced form of ecological civilization. In primitive society, due to the extremely low level of productive forces and backward production relations, backward primitive civilization was correspondingly produced. In primitive society, because of the harsh natural conditions and living environment, people can only survive by picking wild fruits from trees and hunting. People work together and share the fruits of their labor. They often have a full meal, and there is little food left.
When human beings get along with nature, they are basically in a passive state and have not destroyed nature. Industrial civilization began with the invention of machines. With the invention of electricity, the power of machines has become more powerful, more and more machines have been invented, and the production efficiency is increasing day by day. However, the destruction of nature has gradually deepened. Some injuries may be repaired after a period of time, but some will accompany people for a long time.
When people see that industrial civilization has caused irreparable damage to nature, we begin to reflect on how to treat nature, how to use nature and how to live in harmony with nature, so as to realize that human beings are not the masters of nature, but a part of nature, and should live in harmony with nature, instead of simply asking for it from nature, they can only satisfy themselves, let alone destroy the natural environment for survival and development. Since then, human civilization has entered an ecological civilization.
2. Promoting the construction of ecological civilization is an inevitable requirement for people to yearn for a better life. In the early 1980s, environmental protection was our basic national policy. In the past 30 years, great progress has been made in the construction of ecological civilization, but economic development is still constrained by the shortage of resources. Although the land area of China seems to be rich in natural resources, the per capita resources are relatively small, and many resources are far below the world average.
Since the reform and opening up, the rapid economic growth has greatly increased the demand for various mineral resources. Due to the lack of resources, low output rate and low utilization rate in China, the rapid economic growth has greatly increased the external dependence of resources and the consumption of land resources and water resources. With the deepening of reform and opening up, the acceleration of modernization and the advancement of urbanization, the demand for resources will continue to increase.
The contradiction between economic development and resource shortage will exist for a long time. We hope that China's economy will continue to grow at a high speed, which will inevitably require all walks of life to save resources and improve the utilization rate of resources. With the rapid economic growth, environmental pollution is becoming more and more serious, and the ecological environment is deteriorating. Water pollution in some key river basins is serious, and some enterprises steal industrial wastewater and waste gas; The sewer construction in old residential areas is unreasonable.
Domestic sewage is discharged directly or indirectly, and some detergents containing nitrogen and phosphorus are used in life, which leads to excessive nitrogen and phosphorus pollution in water. Secondly, the air pollution is serious. It used to be foggy in northern cities. Now many southern cities have joined the ranks of smog, and automobile exhaust emissions are released in large quantities. Many fast-growing enterprises release too much carbon dioxide and waste gas after burning sulfur-containing compounds.
The occurrence of acid rain intensifies, and the original acid-base balance of soil is destroyed. The rise of atmospheric temperature makes the sea level rise, and many animals are on the verge of extinction.
