Cherish resources and protect the environment
Edited by Chinese Language Network
Building a conservation-oriented society" is a slogan we shout when we cherish and save resources. However, How can we truly conserve resources? Why should we strongly recommend conservation?
First, my country’s total water resources are 2.8 trillion. cubic meters, ranking sixth in the world. The per capita water volume is more than 2,100 cubic meters, accounting for only a quarter of the world's per capita level. It is a water-scarce country. More than 400 of the more than 600 cities in the country are water-scarce. Especially in the western region, water shortage is very serious. In some mountainous areas, it is very difficult for people and animals to drink water.
Our country is facing serious water problems, so we must cherish water resources and save water. For example: use. After finishing the water, you must tighten the faucet to avoid the waste phenomenon of "a river of clean water flowing eastward". If you find that the faucet is broken, repair it in time to avoid losing a lot of water. Don't underestimate the discarded batteries, because one Button batteries pollute 600 tons of water. If you throw them into the water, the water will be undrinkable. We should collect the batteries and send them to the recycling bin, which can avoid contaminating water sources and allow the batteries to be recycled, killing two birds with one stone. We can’t just talk, we must take action!
We must not only save water, but also save forest resources. The total forest resources in our country are only 18.21%, which is equivalent to 18.21%. The average forest coverage rate in the world is 61.52%; the national per capita forest area and per capita forest stock volume are respectively less than one-quarter and one-sixth of the world's per capita level. The forest quality is not high, and the average stock volume per hectare is only 84.73. cubic meters, which is equivalent to 84.86% of the world average.
This is the warning that forest resources give us! We must save and use forest resources. First of all, we must not throw away manuscript paper or take it away without writing. Use old paper to fold small crafts such as airplanes, and don’t cut down trees or trample flowers and trees at will. Plant trees and take care of flowers and trees; don’t use disposable items, such as paper cups, wooden blocks, etc. In school, we must. Establish a "green bank" and pick up previously discarded paper scraps, small handkerchiefs, etc. When eating out, bring your own spoons and chopsticks. Let's act together to save and use our limited forest resources.
Electricity is inseparable from everywhere in our lives. Electricity brings us various conveniences, but we must save electricity because electricity is almost produced by burning standard coal, and the coal stored in our country is only enough to be mined for 100 years. Come on! Think about it, what will our descendants do in 100 years? So, we must start from ourselves. I remember that "when people come, the lights turn on, and when people leave, the lights turn off." When turning on the air conditioner, don't adjust the temperature too low. Use energy-saving lamps as much as possible for daily lighting, because ordinary light bulbs convert a large amount of electrical energy into heat, and only a small amount is converted into light, while energy-saving lamps convert a large amount of electricity into heat. Electric energy is almost transformed into light.
"Cherishing resources and advocating conservation" is the obligation of every citizen. For our better tomorrow, please act quickly!
"Looking forward, looking forward, the east wind is coming, the footsteps of spring are near..."
It is Mother Earth who brings us beautiful springs one after another. On April 22, when the 37th "World Earth Day" comes to us with the dance of spring, we must think about: how should we treat Mother Earth well, and how should we cherish the thousands of miles of spring that Mother Earth has given us.
Being kind to the earth - cherishing resources and sustaining development is the main theme of this spring.
However, the current situation in our country, whether it is land resources or mineral resources, their protection, utilization and sustainable utilization does not allow us to be optimistic. We have to ask: Is the earth’s spring eternal?
Although we implement the strictest land management system in the world, in some places, the indiscriminate occupation of agricultural land and basic farmland still occurs from time to time; in our cities, large and small, The "big pie" paved with reinforced concrete is still expanding in all directions, devouring thousands of hectares of grain fields around it...
Although the supply of mineral resources has become a bottleneck restricting rapid economic development, However, in some places, unlicensed small mines, which are marked by waste and destruction of resources, are still mining indiscriminately; even in large mines, the extensive mining method of "eat half and throw away half" continues; random heaping Indiscriminately placed tailings not only cause the mineral resources that could have been used to be abandoned, but may also form mudslides during the rainy season, becoming a killer that destroys fields, crops, and people's lives and property; ground subsidence and ground fissures in mine goafs not only cause Farmers have lost the land resources they depend on for survival, which also threatens their living security; we are the most water-scarce country in the world, but water for production and domestic use is still being squandered casually, and precious groundwater has been over-exploited or polluted. We are already very short of energy, but the extensive heating of newly built houses that are springing up like mushrooms is still wasting oil and coal resources...
Today, when the supply and demand for land and mineral resources are tight, we must change The current situation of extensive utilization of land resources, low efficiency and serious waste.
The Party Central Committee and the State Council attach great importance to the conservation and intensive utilization of land and resources, requiring us to have a high sense of historical responsibility, a strong sense of urgency and a broad world perspective during the critical period when strategic opportunities and contradictions coexist, and accurately grasp the stage characteristics of our country's development, Based on scientific development, focus on independent innovation, accelerate the transformation of economic growth mode, regard resource conservation as a basic national policy, develop a circular economy, protect the ecological environment, accelerate the construction of a resource-saving and environment-friendly society, and promote economic development to be consistent with population, resources, and the environment. coordination.
In order to build a conservation-oriented society, during the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan" period, the country has set several binding hard targets that must be achieved: the amount of cultivated land maintained at 120 million hectares, and the energy consumption per unit of GDP reduced. By about 20%, the water consumption per unit of industrial added value will be reduced by 30%, the effective utilization coefficient of agricultural irrigation water will be increased to 0.5, and the comprehensive utilization rate of industrial solid waste will be increased to 60% (expected). Now, governments and enterprises at all levels are working hard to achieve these goals, and every one of our citizens must work hard to achieve these goals. Resource shortages and energy crises are all around us. "Electricity shortage", "oil shortage", "coal shortage", "water shortage", etc. are bothering us all the time. Cherishing resources depends on you and me. Only with the concerted efforts of the whole society can we get rid of the resource dilemma in rapid development and move towards a resource-saving and environment-friendly society.
Everyone has the responsibility to cherish resources, protect resources, and save resources.
Let us start from now, start from me, start from bit by bit, cherish all the natural resources given to us by Mother Earth, and make our homeland shine bright every year...
