Sanming is an important breeding place and innovative practice place of Xi Jinping's ecological civilization thought. On April 11, 1997, Comrade Xi Jinping, then deputy secretary of the Fujian Provincial Party Committee, urged during a survey in Changkou Village, Jiangle County: "Green mountains and green waters are priceless treasures, and mountainous areas must paint a'landscape painting' and do a good job of landscape and field articles."
For over 20 years, our city has kept in mind important instructions and implemented the concept of "green mountains and waters are priceless treasures" throughout the entire process and all aspects of economic and social development. We have made every effort to promote green development and have embarked on a new path that coordinates and promotes ecological protection and economic development.
Be good at addition
Two pronged approach to "ecology" and "industry"
Mingxi is a national ecological county and a national ecological demonstration zone. Its unique ecological resources attract hundreds of wild bird species to inhabit here, and also attract many tourists to come and watch birds.
"This year, for the first time in Mingxi, endangered bird species such as the phoenix headed diving duck, the oriental plover, and the spoonbill duck have been discovered. The total number of recorded wild bird species has reached 328, and Mingxi bird watching is becoming more and more interesting!" During the summer vacation, bird guide Luo Yuming introduced the latest bird situation to tourists, making it a treasure trove. He used to be a driver, but later learned to recognize birds and distinguish sounds, gradually becoming familiar with the habits of birds and becoming a tour guide serving birdwatchers.
In the news of a trip to the wilderness in China, the outdoor bird tour route of "Sanming Mingxi Emei Peak" is popular, and the local bird guide in charge of leading the tour is Luo Yuming. Luo Yuming calculated that the birdwatching group consisted of ten to dozens of people, and the itinerary in Mingxi often lasted for ten days and a half months, or even half a year. The local reception formats included accommodation, catering, transportation, specialty procurement, and ticket fees at birdwatching points, and the income was considerable.
The statistical data of Mingxi County Cultural and Tourism Bureau confirms Luo Yuming's account book. During this year's May Day holiday alone, more than 7000 bird watching tourists were received in various towns and villages in the county, creating nearly 4 million yuan in profits for related villagers. The ecological bird watching industry has fully recovered, and a path of characteristic rural revitalization with "ecological bird watching+forest health care" as the main body has been taken.
In Yong'an, a practice of industrial ecology is unfolding. Fujian Xiangfenghua New Energy Materials Co., Ltd., located in the Graphene and Graphene Industrial Park in Yong'an City, is a high-tech enterprise that integrates research and development, production, and sales of high-end negative electrode materials such as graphite and silicon carbon for lithium-ion secondary batteries, as well as the application of graphene. Our products cover fields such as power batteries, energy storage, and 3C, and are supplied to multiple industry-leading enterprises. From landing in Sanming to listing on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, Xiangfenghua has witnessed the development speed of Sanming's graphite and graphene industries in just 5 years.
In recent years, in accordance with the deployment of the Provincial Party Committee and Government to develop the "Four Major Economies", our city has vigorously developed green economy and cultural tourism economy, cultivated strategic emerging industries such as fluorine new materials, graphite, rare earth new energy, and biomedicine, continuously extended and strengthened the chain, achieved coupling between industries, and promoted optimal development of industries. The graphite and graphene industries have an average annual growth rate of over 30%, accounting for about 70% of the province's revenue, and have become powerful growth points for the city's industrial development.
Remember the earnest instructions and promote the construction of ecological civilization to constantly reach new heights.
Tailored to local conditions and with unique characteristics, our city promotes ecological "high aesthetics" and high-quality development by focusing on industrial ecology and ecological industrialization.
Subtracting feet
Guarding Green Waters and Green Mountains
Sanming had industry before the city, and it is an old industrial base city. How can it have both a chimney and a blue sky? To achieve industrial excellence while pursuing industrial beauty?
Entering San Gang, the answers are revealed one by one. The sky is blue and the ground is clean, the air is fresh, and the exquisite rockery and flowing water, lush green grass and bamboo cultivation... This beautiful scenery is located in the Sanming factory area of San Steel.
But more than 20 years ago, this place was a dirty, chaotic, and poor scene. While San Gang was driving economic benefits, it also brought pollution problems such as haze and dust.
San Steel should lead the province in sustainable development, ecological environment construction, and other aspects.
Since 2000, the headquarters of Sansteel alone has invested nearly 3 billion yuan to build environmental protection facilities or complete more than 350 environmental protection upgrading and renovation projects. It has successively eliminated 4 small sintering machines, 3 small blast furnaces, and 4 small converters, shut down 2 coal production lines, 14 gas making furnaces, and 1 thermal power plant. By 2022, compared to 10 years ago, the steel production at the headquarters of San Steel has increased by nearly 2.2 million tons, and the monthly dust reduction per square kilometer in the factory area has decreased by 70.3%.
The transformation of Three Steel has been widely praised by society, providing important reference for the green transformation and development of industrial cities, including national and Fujian Province green factories, Fujian Province sightseeing factories, national and Fujian Province industrial tourism demonstration bases, and national AAAA level tourist attractions.
Remember the important reminder that "green mountains and clear waters are priceless treasures". When there is a conflict between protection and development, Sanming prioritizes ecological protection. The Wanshouyan Site, located in Yanqian Town, Sanyuan District, not only contains abundant mineral resources, but also buries human activity relics dating back 200000 to 30000 years. Such a "treasure" once faced the danger of being "flattened by explosives" due to mining by mining companies.
In 2000, Comrade Xi Jinping, then acting governor of Fujian Province, made two important instructions, retaining this ancient human relic and opening a new chapter in protection and utilization.
Nowadays, Wanshouyan National Archaeological Site Park has been selected as one of the five excellent archaeological site protection and display projects in China, and is also the only archaeological site in Fujian Province to receive this honor. At present, this place has become a theme site park that integrates site display, science popularization education, academic research, and ecotourism, with archaeology as its characteristic. The ancient sites have brought new brilliance to life.
In recent years, our city has been continuously fighting the battle against pollution prevention and control, implementing a special action to rectify environmental inspection issues. With the closure of a number of factories such as Sanming Pesticide Factory and Sanming Chemical Factory, the relocation of Sanming Heavy Machinery Factory and Sanming Textile Factory from the city to the park, and the technological transformation and upgrading of a number of industrial enterprises, the ecological advantages have been further consolidated.
In 2022, the proportion of days with good air quality in urban areas was 98.6%, ranking third in the province; The comprehensive water quality index of the city is 1.5381, an improvement of 4.7% compared to the previous year, ranking first in the province for three consecutive years; 76 small watershed sections have the highest water quality in the province; The water quality compliance rate of centralized drinking water source areas at or above the county level is 100%; Seven and five counties respectively ranked among the top ten in terms of air quality and water environment quality among county-level cities in the province, ranking first in terms of quantity.
Courageous Trial Multiplication
Opening up the "Two Mountains" conversion channel
Sanming is the green capital of China, with a forest coverage rate of 78.88% and beautiful deep forests. How to achieve resonance between "ecological beauty" and "people's wealth" on the same frequency?
On March 23, 2021, General Secretary Xi Jinping, who was investigating and investigating in Sanming, came to the Shaxian Rural Property Rights Exchange Center and gave important instructions to the Sanming forest reform: "The exploration of the reform of the Sanming collective forest rights system is very meaningful, and we must adhere to the correct reform direction. Respect the pioneering spirit of the masses, actively and steadily promote the innovation of the collective forest rights system, explore and improve the ecological product value realization mechanism, and strive to achieve new breakthroughs."
Lin Nong Wei Fasong was currently conducting on-site registration and listing transactions for forest land. Not long after, his family quoted a price of 579000 yuan for 116 acres of forest, which was sold for 688000 yuan. In the past two years, he established his own family forest farm and named it "Green Mountains and Green Waters" family forest farm, turning his attention to the economy under the forest and trying to follow the path of "getting rich without cutting down trees". Last year, he rented 300 acres of forest land located in Mayan Villa, Shaxian District, and planted Chinese medicinal materials such as Chuanshan Dragon, Niu Nai Gen, Cao Coral, and Huangjing under the forest.
The transition channel between green mountains and clear waters, as well as gold and silver mountains, is constantly expanding, from the forest to the forest and then to the forest.
Air can sell for money! On May 18, 2021, at the opening ceremony of the Sanming Forestry Carbon Ticket, Changkou Village received the first national forestry carbon ticket with the number "000000 1" and successfully circulated it, making "selling air for money" a reality.
The forestry carbon bill measures the annual net carbon sequestration under natural forest growth conditions, enhancing operability while more fully reflecting the value of trees and ecological value.
The carbon bill is complemented by the forest bill, which is an early realization of future benefits for mountains and forests.
A few years ago, in many villages in Sha County, due to the majority of villagers going out to manage snacks and the lack of effective forest management, the low output efficiency of mountains and forests inevitably existed. In this context, the "marriage" between village collectives and professional state-owned forest farms has emerged. The forest is handed over to the state-owned forest farm for management, which issues forest tickets to villagers, confirms investment shares, and can circulate within the village collective.
"With forest tickets, we forest farmers have a 'reassuring pill' and more confidence in managing forestry." Hong, the head of a family forest farm in Xiamao Town, Shaxian District, collectively collects more than 10 forest tickets and obtained more than 1 million yuan in loans as collateral in 2021.
Financial products derived from Lin Piao mortgage, such as Fulin Loan, Yilin Loan, Lin Piao Loan, and Lin Tong Loan, are innovative breakthroughs that our city has repeatedly faced in the process of reform and development.
In 2022, the city has issued a total of 555 million yuan in forest tickets, covering an area of 222100 acres, benefiting 19600 households and 78000 people; A total of 40 forestry carbon bill projects have been developed, with a carbon emission reduction of 945000 tons, achieving a total of 1.171 million yuan in trading and re trading; A total of 21.75 billion yuan in forestry credit has been disbursed. The total output value of forestry in the city reached 126.2 billion yuan, becoming the largest industrial cluster in our city, effectively activating dormant forestry resource assets, and opening up the channel for the transformation of ecological value of forest resources into economic benefits.
On July 1st, the D3147 high-speed train departed from Taining Station and headed for Shanghai Hongqiao. This is the first high-speed train from Taining to Shanghai, which is of great significance for accelerating the interconnection between the two cities and promoting Taining's cultural and tourism products to the Shanghai market.
This high-speed train is named "Fujian Taining Dajinhu", which is a microcosm of Taining fully unleashing the brand effect of "Dajinhu" and polishing its "Danshan Qingshui" golden signboard. Recently, the first Top 100 Brand Values list in Fujian was released, and Taining Dajinhu was selected as a brand in the tourism destination area.
The Dajin Lake Scenic Area is the core scenic area of the Taining World Geopark and Taining World Natural Heritage. In accordance with the city's plan to accelerate the integration of tourism resources, Taining County is accelerating the construction of projects such as the "Surrounding Dajin Lake Tourist Resort" and the Jinjiang International Resort, with Dajin Lake as the regional center, to create a world-class tourist destination.
Diligent division
Obstacle removal and mechanism building
Managing mountains and rivers, creating a brighter ecological background.
Our city's political and legal units actively explore the construction of an ecological justice comprehensive governance mechanism with "party and government support, departmental cooperation, and regional linkage", and leverage the integration of "forest chief+prosecutor" and "forest chief+police chief" in ecological law enforcement cooperation and the implementation of a "restorative judicial practice+socialized comprehensive governance" trial result execution mechanism, striving to safeguard the construction of ecological civilization demonstration zones and ensure that the achievements of ecological civilization construction benefit the people.
Early every morning, Li Xingcai, a forest ranger at Gaoqiao Forestry Station in Shaxian District, sets off. He couldn't count how many times he had walked this road from Gaoqiao Town to Quanshuixia Village. Only when he saw that the forest he managed had not been damaged, did his heart feel at ease.
Since the comprehensive implementation of the forest chief system in our city, we have established and improved a four level forest chief system, with 4751 forest chiefs at the city, county, township, and village levels. We have also focused on the "refined, grid based, socialized, and intelligent" management of forest rangers, giving priority to the transformation of eligible and capable impoverished populations into ecological protection personnel on the spot. In the past five years, the city has invested an average of 55 million yuan annually and hired over 2300 ecological forest rangers.
Water is the soul of a city.
Focusing on the challenges of ecological and environmental protection, our city has taken the lead in promoting comprehensive ecological law enforcement in the province and exploring the practice of river chief system. In 2009, Datian established the first ecological comprehensive law enforcement team in the province, and in 2012, Shaxian established the first ecological comprehensive law enforcement bureau in the province, ushering in the era of intelligent management of rivers and lakes. At the same time, our city has taken the lead in formulating the local standard "Management Norms for River Chief System Work" in Fujian, providing evaluation criteria and basis for the operation and assessment of river chief system management throughout the province. We have elected "Committee River Chiefs", "Enterprise River Chiefs", and "People's River Chiefs" to unite the collective efforts of the whole people in water management.
The reform of the three environmental protection systems has also solved the problem of low enthusiasm of enterprises in reducing pollution and carbon emissions.
Emission rights, carbon emissions rights, energy use rights... Currently, at the Strait Resources and Environment Trading Sanming Service Center located in the Zhongguancun Science and Technology Park of Sanming Ecological New City, these ecological and environmental indicators can all be turned into real gold and silver.
Jiangle Jinniu Cement Co., Ltd. was one of the first companies to taste the sweetness. The trading center will use the emission rights, carbon emissions rights, and other indicators released after the transformation of enterprise environmental protection projects as collateral, and provide Jinniu Cement with a low interest "environmental rights loan" financing amount of 35 million yuan to support the improvement of environmental protection level in the clinker burning system. After this optimization and upgrading, Jinniu Cement has built a demonstration line for ultra clean production in the cement industry throughout the province.
Starting from 2014, our city has innovatively carried out the "three reforms" of enterprise environmental credit evaluation, emission rights trading, and environmental pollution liability insurance. We have played a good combination of reforms in the field of ecological and environmental protection, promoting enterprises to achieve a good trend of transformation from "I want to change" to "I want to change" in ecological and environmental protection, and achieving a win-win effect for enterprises, governments, and society.
Green mountains and clear waters are priceless treasures! Remembering important instructions, forging ahead with determination, Sanming will persistently promote the construction of ecological civilization, and make green mountains and clear waters benefit the people and benefit future generations.
