On the morning of December 8, the Information Office of the Beijing Municipal People's Government held a press conference on the "Beijing Municipal Ecological Environmental Protection Plan for the 14th Five-Year Plan Period", and the relevant responsible persons of the Municipal Development and Reform Commission, the Municipal Bureau of Economy and Information Technology, the Municipal Bureau of Ecology and Environment, the Municipal Transportation Commission, the Municipal Water Affairs Bureau, and the Municipal Landscaping Bureau introduced the situation.
Liu Xianshu, deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Ecology and Environment, introduced the main contents of the "Beijing Municipal Ecological Environment Protection Plan for the 14th Five-Year Plan Period":
"The mountains and rivers come to frost at night, and several trees are dark red and light yellow." In this autumn and winter, such a scenery can be seen everywhere in Beijing. The beautiful ecological environment makes this cosmopolitan metropolis full of poetry, and citizens can walk into the picture when they go out of their homes.
Behind this, there is a set of data support from the field of ecological environment. In the final year of the "13th Five-Year Plan", the annual average concentration value of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) in Beijing entered the "30+" for the first time, with a five-year decline of more than 50%, and 8 districts took the lead in reaching the national secondary standard, accounting for about 80% of the urban area; the surface water quality continued to improve, and the inferior class V water bodies in the state-controlled section were completely eliminated; and the soil environmental conditions remained good.
During the "13th Five-Year Plan" period, the citizens living in Beijing have personal feelings, the blue sky above their heads has become more, the clear water around them has become clearer, and the ecological environment has improved significantly. So, while enjoying the beautiful scenery and basking in the blue sky, have you ever imagined that in five years, what kind of appearance and background will Beijing have?
In the just-released "Beijing Municipal 14th Five-Year Plan" Period Ecological Environmental Protection Plan (hereinafter referred to as the "14th Five-Year Plan"), there is such a set of eye-catching data: by 2025, the PM2.5 concentration in Beijing will drop to about 35 micrograms per cubic meter, basically eliminating heavily polluted weather; eliminating inferior Class V water bodies; and steadily improving the ecological environment quality index... A picture of green water and green mountains intertwined and full of vitality is slowly unfolding in front of the eyes of Beijing citizens.
3 features
Promoting "New Progress" in Urban Environmental Governance
The 14th Five-Year Plan is divided into three parts and eight chapters, covering effectiveness review and situation analysis, planning principles and planning objectives, and six specific measures. The 14th Five-Year Plan highlights three characteristics.
The first is the concept of system. Adhere to the integrated protection and restoration of landscapes, forests, fields, lakes and grasses, take carbon reduction as the key strategic direction, coordinate pollution control, ecological protection, and response to climate change as a whole, strengthen the synergy of pollution reduction and carbon reduction, pay attention to the coordinated treatment of PM2.5 and ozone pollution, deepen local and regional collaborative governance, and promote the comprehensive green transformation of economic and social development.
The second is goal-oriented. With the improvement of the quality of the ecological environment as the core, we will fully undertake the ecological and environmental goals and tasks put forward in the 14th Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development and the Outline of long-term goals for the year 2035 and the national ecological and environmental protection plans, based on the present and the long-term, and strive to achieve new breakthroughs in key areas, important fields and key indicators.
The third is problem-oriented. Focus on the gaps faced by green, low-carbon and high-quality development and the key and difficult points of ecological environment quality improvement, focus on the ecological and environmental problems reflected by the public, focus on making up for the shortcomings of infrastructure and insufficient governance capabilities, and continuously meet the growing needs of the people for a beautiful ecological environment.
5 dimensions
Drawing a "New Blueprint" for Beijing's Green and Low Carbon
The 14th Five-Year Plan clearly sets out the long-term goals for 2035 and the main goals for 2025.
Looking at Beijing in 2035, the ecological environment has fundamentally improved, the supply of high-quality ecological products has become more sufficient, green production and lifestyle have become a widespread consciousness of society, carbon emissions have continued to decline after peaking first, carbon neutrality has made significant progress, and ecological cities surrounded by blue skies, clear water and forests have been basically completed.
Looking at 2025, the "14th Five-Year Plan" has set a total of 16 planning target indicators from the five dimensions of development of lower carbon, cleaner air, cleaner water, safer soil, and more ecological livability, including the intensity of carbon emissions of concern, the average annual concentration of PM2.5, the ratio of excellent days, the ratio of heavily polluted days, the proportion of river length of inferior Class V water quality, the proportion of state-controlled sections of surface water reaching or better than Class III. and the ecological environment quality index.
6 major aspects
Deploying "new tasks" in the field of eco-friendliness
The 14th Five-Year Plan sets out the main tasks and clarifies the "progress bar" of the task in six major aspects, such as promoting carbon neutrality, deepening the battle against pollution, improving the quality and stability of the ecosystem, preventing and controlling environmental risks, promoting coordinated regional development, and building a modern environmental governance system.
Highlight the national strategy and take solid steps towards carbon neutrality. Comprehensively promote the low-carbon transformation in the fields of energy, industry, transportation, and construction, strengthen green and low-carbon technology innovation, improve the carbon emission control and management system, deepen the construction of carbon emission trading markets, accelerate the construction of a rule-of-law, market-oriented, and refined low-carbon governance system, and vigorously promote pollution reduction and carbon reduction synergies。
Highlight the concerns of the people, and thoroughly fight the battle against pollution. In terms of improving air quality, focusing on the coordinated control of PM2.5 and ozone, focusing on motor vehicles, production and life, dust and other fields, the implementation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) control special actions, promote the construction of ultra-low emission zones in the core area, and continue to deepen the "one microgram" action. In terms of improving the quality of the water ecological environment, we will focus on eliminating inferior class V water bodies, do a good job in the "three-water overall planning" of water resources, water environment and water ecology, and gradually restore the water ecological functions of rivers and lakes. In terms of ensuring soil environmental safety, focus on agricultural land, construction land, unused land and other fields, and deepen prevention and control.
Highlight system protection and improve ecosystem quality and stability. Make every effort to protect ecological space and strictly abide by the red line of ecological protection. Improve the quality of the ecological environment, expand the space of green space, promote ecological governance and restoration, carry out a series of demonstrations and creation of ecological civilization, and strengthen the construction of ecological monitoring and supervision system. Carry out biodiversity surveys and ecological environment quality assessments, and prepare and implement biodiversity conservation plans.
Highlight bottom-line thinking and strengthen the effective prevention and control of environmental risks. Improve the capacity of hazardous waste collection, strengthen the recycling of solid waste resources, strengthen nuclear and radiation safety supervision, and improve the environmental emergency risk prevention and control system.
Highlight regional coordination and promote the green coordinated development of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei. Taking the green Olympic Games as an opportunity, taking the "two wings" green co-construction of the city sub-center and the Xiong'an New Area as the traction, we will further deepen the joint construction of the regional ecological environment and joint prevention and control.
Highlight pluralistic co-governance and build a modern environmental governance system. Improve the system of leadership responsibility, corporate responsibility, and national action, and strengthen international exchanges and cooperation in the field of ecological environment.
During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, the construction of ecological civilization has entered a critical period with carbon reduction as the key strategic direction, promoting the synergy of pollution reduction and carbon reduction, promoting the comprehensive green transformation of economic and social development, and realizing the improvement of ecological environment quality from quantitative to qualitative change. In the "blueprint" drawn up in the 14th Five-Year Plan, an ecological Beijing surrounded by blue sky, clear water and forests is coming to us. In the case of practical governance, Beijing will grasp the implementation of the plan, make our city more beautiful in color, more colorful, and clearer in the background, and strive to build a beautiful Beijing where man and nature coexist in harmony!
