Ministry of Environmental Protection: straw burning is suspected to have caused a large area of heavy haze in autumn in China.
China News Service, Beijing, October 18 (Reporter Dong Guanyang)-China's Ministry of Environmental Protection announced in Beijing on the 18th that suspected straw burning sites have been detected in 20 provinces in the past two weeks, and the situation of pollution prevention and control is grim. On the 15th-17th, North, East and Central China just experienced the first large-scale haze since the beginning of autumn.
Statistics from the Ministry of Environmental Protection's satellite remote sensing inspection and monitoring data showed that no suspected straw burning sites were detected in 11 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities), including Beijing, Shanghai, Fujian, Guangdong and Xizang, from May 5 to 17. A total of 862 suspected straw burning sites were detected in other 20 provinces (autonomous regions), an increase of 54 over the same period in 2014, an increase of 6.68%. Among them, there are up to 179 fire spots in Shandong. From the average number of fire points per thousand hectares of cultivated land, the fire intensity of straw burning is the highest in Liaoning, Shanxi, Shandong, Henan and Jilin.
From the 16th to 17th, the Ministry of Environmental Protection sent personnel to Liaoning to investigate and found that due to the limitations of satellite transit time, cloud cover and other factors, the actual number of local fires far exceeded the number of fires captured by satellite monitoring. Wang Dongqing, deputy director of the Environmental Supervision Bureau of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, stressed that the peak period of straw burning in Liaoning is coming, and after late October, Jilin, Heilongjiang and other places will also enter the peak period of straw burning one after another. the situation of prevention and control of straw burning pollution in Northeast China will be more severe.
The utilization of straw and the prohibition of burning have always been an important concern in haze control. China's National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Finance have issued preferential policies on capital subsidies, electricity prices, taxation and other aspects to vigorously promote the comprehensive utilization of straw. Jiangsu, Anhui and other places also increase financial investment, promote the comprehensive utilization of straw, and strengthen supervision and inspection.
Wang Dongqing said that the Ministry of Environmental Protection will further step up satellite remote sensing inspection and monitoring efforts, publish daily satellite monitoring on the government website, and use secret visits to urge local prevention and control, and provinces with poor prevention and control will be publicly notified.
