The construction of ecological civilization is related to people's livelihood and the future.

Since the 18th CPC National Congress, General Secretary Xi Jinping has always emphasized the construction of ecological civilization and the maintenance of ecological security at important meetings, investigations, visits, exchanges, and other occasions at home and abroad. According to statistics, there have been more than 60 important speeches and instructions.

Today's green waters and green mountains are tomorrow's Jinshan and Silver Mountains. A good ecological environment is the basis of human survival and socio-economic development, and is considered by the international community to be the most noteworthy issue in the world economic development strategy. History and practice have long shown that the pollution of the environment and the destruction of the ecology will eventually damage and harm human beings themselves.

Looking at the whole world, if any country wants to survive and develop in the fierce international competition, it must develop its economy and promote growth. Under the background of the rapid development of globalization, with the rapid development of economy and the sustained growth of the total population, the ecological environment on which human beings depend for survival has been more and more seriously damaged.

In China, over the past 30 years of reform and opening up, with the rapid development of social economy, the problem of environmental pollution has existed for a long time and become increasingly prominent. Some large cities have serious "urban diseases." in some ecologically fragile areas, there are problems such as grassland desertification, land subsidence, soil erosion, and so on.

History and practice have long shown that the pollution of the environment and the destruction of the ecology will ultimately damage and harm human beings themselves. We must understand that once the ecological environment is overwhelmed, it means that energy resources will be difficult to support, which means that it will have a serious impact on social and economic sustainable development, and it is bound to make it impossible for human beings to continue to live healthily.

To improve ecology is to improve people's livelihood. A good ecological environment is the fairest public goods and the most universal well-being of the people. It is everyone's wish to have a beautiful home with blue sky, green earth and clean water. For a long time in the past, we have learned a profound lesson in dealing with the relationship between man and nature. Reality has made us clearly realize that the restriction of ecological environment on economic growth will affect our sustainable development. We must constantly improve the quality of ecological environment, create a livable environment with beautiful scenery and blue water, and hand over an "ecological answer paper" of sufficient weight. It is the most fundamental guarantee to achieve sustainable social and economic development and the greatest livelihood and welfare of the country and the people.

Ecological civilization itself is development. Ecology itself is the productive forces, without ecological civilization, economic development will lack the conditions for survival. The root of the ecological problem is the problem of the mode of development, so we must take the road of sustainable development. General Secretary Xi Jinping has repeatedly stressed that "blue skies and white clouds, green mountains and green waters are the greatest capital for long-term development, and a good ecological environment is not only the productive forces, but also the core competitiveness of a region." We should adhere to the principle of giving priority to protection. we will continue to optimize economic development with environmental protection and transfer the requirements of eco-environmental protection to economic transformation and upgrading. " In other words, we should regard eco-environmental protection as the key core of economic structure, mode of development, and improvement of people's livelihood, and do a good job in ecological protection with iron determination, iron hand, and iron discipline, so as to protect our green waters and mountains.

The development of ecological economy is the future way out. To give priority to environmental protection and develop green economy and ecological economy is the inevitable choice to implement the scientific concept of development and realize the win-win situation of economic development and resource and environmental protection. As General Secretary Xi Jinping said, "to engage in economic development without environmental protection is to 'fish out of the pool'; to pay attention to environmental protection without economic development is to seek fish from wood." It can be said that green economy and ecological economy are the inevitable choice of scientific development and the call of the development of the times. Only by truly achieving ecological development can we achieve higher resource utilization, save more energy, lower pollution emissions, and better economic benefits, and maintain economic and social coordination, balance, and sustainable development. only in this way can our mountains be greener, the water clearer and the sky bluer, and the people's lives more happy and happy.

In short, a good ecological environment is not only the most precious resources, the most obvious advantages and the brightest business cards of the country and the nation, but also the greatest potential for leapfrog development. As General Secretary Xi Jinping stressed, "the construction of ecological civilization is related to the well-being of the people, the future of the nation, where public opinion lies and the will of the people." The construction of ecological civilization is not only related to the sustainable social and economic development of our country, but also related to the global ecological security and the healthy development of human beings. The construction of ecological civilization is a great cause that contributes to the present age and benefits for thousands of years, and it is also a common cause of the whole nation and society, which needs the concern and support of the whole society.
