People should not only benefit the present, but also take into account future generations. Governments should be the custodians of the environment and natural resources and take responsibility for sustainable development.
The Shanghai Song and Dance Troupe's dance "Crested Ibis" shined at this year's Spring Festival Gala, bringing beauty to the people of the whole country.
The crested ibis, known as the red ibis, is called the red ibis, and the common people call it "flamingo", which is an auspicious bird. However, in the rapid running towards urbanization of human beings, due to inadvertent and neglect of the protection of its living environment, the blue sky and clean water and the quiet natural habitat ecology necessary for the life and reproduction of the timid and sensitive crested ibises have become more and more narrow. The crested ibises have become extinct in countries around the world. In the 1970s, Chinese and Japanese scientists spent a lot of energy searching for the traces of crested ibises, but found nothing, and everyone thought that the population of crested ibises was extinct in the world. Japanese television also broadcast the death of the last crested ibis, Akin.
Fortunately, in May 1981, Chinese scientists found seven wild crested ibises in Yang County, Shaanxi Province. Chinese scientists carefully trained them to grow. After decades of cooperation between China, Japan and South Korea, China now owns 3,000 crested ibises. During the 2010 World Expo, Chen Feihua, the head of the Shanghai Song and Dance Troupe, saw the image of the crested ibis in the Japanese Pavilion, and his noble, beautiful and moving dance style fascinated him and inspired him to create a dance drama on this topic. Today, the beautiful crested ibises fly onto the stage and dance to the melodious rhythm of music. "Crested Ibis" uses the unique dance style of national dance to refine and evolve the action elements of crested ibises such as "wading", "perching" and "xiang", and is closely integrated with ballet art, making it a dance drama that perfectly combines Western ballet art and Chinese national style. It brought 120,000 Japanese viewers to tears as they watched China's "Crested Ibis."
So, I thought of tang fish and goldfish.
Tang fish is a national second-level protected animal. Since the 1980s, tang fish have gradually disappeared. The 1998 edition of the Red Book of Endangered Animals of China (Fish) identified the tang fish as extinct in the wild.
However, in the past ten years, due to the improvement of the ecological environment, Tangyu has been "resurrected". In 2003, it was first discovered in the mountain streams and swamps of Shuiwei Cave in Liangxin Village, Liangkou. Later, more than 20,000 tails were found in the Aotou Ding Pit. This is clearly good news. The British economist Pigou pointed out in his book "Welfare Economics" that people should not only benefit the present, but also take into account future generations. The government should become the trustee of the environment and natural resources, assume the responsibility for sustainable use and sustainable development for generations, increase the protection of environmental and social resources, and strengthen the supervision function. Therefore, the Guangzhou Municipal Government immediately took protective measures and approved the establishment of Guangzhou Conghua Tangyu Nature Reserve in Shuiweidong, with a planned area of 2215 mu and artificial breeding of Tangyu.
It should also be mentioned that the golden mackerel, which Xu Xiake called "the precious taste of Dianchi Lake", also had a similar turnaround with Tang fish. Since the 1960s, due to overfishing, lake reclamation, water pollution and blind introduction, the number of golden mackerel has decreased sharply, and by the end of the last century, the golden mackerel has basically disappeared in Dianchi Lake.
In order to save this endangered fish species, the Yang Junxing research group of the Kunming Institute of Zoology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences spent 13 years to conduct research on the conservation, population recovery and sustainable use of the golden herring, and successfully "resurrected" the golden herring. This is also the first breakthrough in the artificial breeding technology of golden herring, making it the third national protected fish to successfully achieve full-process artificial breeding after Chinese sturgeon and rouge. This move not only recalled the memories of Kunming people for the "treasures of Dianchi Lake", but also verified the feasibility of developing indigenous fish industries in Yunnan. In the past 10 years, the research group has stocked about 8 million golden line catfish fry into the Dianchi Lake Basin. Artificially fed tuna becomes larger, with smaller and fewer spines, making it more suitable for consumption.
Defeat is also Xiao He, and success is also Xiao He. Turning defeat into victory still depends on Xiao He. The Argentine poet Solinas recently wrote a poem entitled "Song of Light", which ends with these sentences: "The birds are above our heads, singing the song of hope, opening their throats with all their might, spreading the light over the city and illuminating us to live." "If we insist on doing all kinds of work to protect the environment, then, in a few decades, the spring of mankind will still not be silent, more sisters of crested ibises will return, tang fish and golden herring will swim in the water, bees and butterflies will continue to dance, and birds will continue to sing with great effort to open their throats and sing together a bright sonata of mankind."
