Practice has proven that economic development cannot come at the cost of destroying ecology. Ecology itself is the economy, and protecting ecology is the development of productivity.
For many years, Yucun has firmly practiced this concept and embarked on a sustainable development path of ecological beauty, industrial prosperity, and people's prosperity.
Compared with 2017, Yucun Mountain has richer vegetation and a more livable rural environment in 2022.

General Secretary Xi Jinping came to the confluence of the three rivers in Yibin City, stopped by the river and looked at the six banks of the three rivers.

The general secretary affirmed and stressed: "as a city in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, it is necessary to strengthen the responsibility of the upper reaches, not to 'open black shops' and discharge sewage along the river, but to try every means to protect the water quality of the upper reaches of the Yangtze River and benefit the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and the whole basin."

General Secretary Xi Jinping said earnestly: "Northeast China is one of the world's three major black soil areas, is the 'golden corn belt, ''hometown of soybeans,' black soil high yield and high yield at the same time also faces the problem of land fertility overdraft. Effective measures must be taken to protect the black soil, the 'giant pandas in the arable land', left to future generations. The pear tree model is worth summarizing and promoting."
Starting from an experimental field, Lishu County has now achieved full coverage of suitable areas for the "pear tree model".

"How is the water quality here?" "How many species of birds are there?" "What is the reason for the fishing ban?" General Secretary asked in detail about the current ecological environment and protection work of Qinghai Lake.
Along the wooden plank road, General Secretary Xi Jinping walked to inspect the surrounding environment: the distant mountains were like Dai, the clear water was boundless, cattle and sheep were in flocks on the grassland, and birds were soaring in the sky......

In August 2019, at Shandan Horse Farm, there were abundant water and grass, and galloping horses.
China has entered a stage of high-quality development, and the supporting role of the ecological environment is becoming increasingly evident. As long as the new development concept is implemented, green mountains and clear waters can become mountains of gold and silver. We must correctly handle the relationship between production, daily life, and ecological environment, actively develop environmentally friendly and sustainable industries, protect precious grassland resources, and make the Qilian Mountains evergreen, always benefiting the people of all ethnic groups on the grassland.
Compared with 2018, the vegetation coverage of Shandan Horse Farm has significantly increased in 2022.

Location: State owned Xinhua Forest Farm, Linhe District, Bayannur, Inner Mongolia
General Secretary Xi Jinping came here to listen to the introduction of the construction of the "Three Norths" project and forest farms in Inner Mongolia, and to inspect the sandy land under treatment.
This is a process of rolling stones up the mountain, and a slight relaxation can lead to repetition. Major ecological projects such as the construction of the "three north" shelter forest system can only be completed under the leadership of the CPC. The ecology of the Three North region is very fragile, and sand prevention and control is a long-term historical task. We must continue to do this work well and live up to our ancestors and descendants.
Compared with 2015, the area of desertification in 2022 has significantly decreased.

The increase of one word reflects a deeper understanding of green development and a firm determination to promote ecological civilization construction. As one of the countries with the most severe desertification, China has achieved a historic transformation from "sand in and people out" to "green in and sand out".
