Depicting beautiful China with the brush of forests and grasses
The jade rabbit is auspicious to say goodbye to the old year, and the golden dragon is dedicated to welcome the new year. On the occasion of the Spring Festival of the Year of the Dragon, we extend our New Year blessings to the cadres and workers of the national forestry and grassland system, and express our heartfelt thanks to friends from all walks of life who care about and support the development of forestry and grassland!
The sun and the moon are moving, and the time is new. Entering the new era, the forestry and grassland industry has forged ahead and flourished, leaving a shining page in the historical process of comprehensively promoting the construction of a strong country and the great cause of national rejuvenation with Chinese-style modernization. Looking back on 2023, the forestry and grassland system will conscientiously implement the idea of ecological civilization, firmly establish and practice the concept that lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets, plan and develop from the perspective of harmonious coexistence between man and nature, focus on key points, overcome difficulties, and promote high-quality development with high-level protection.
This year, the new mission and new goals are urging people to forge ahead. **Issued a mobilization order to fight the tough battle of the Three-North Project and strive to create a new miracle of China's desertification prevention and control in the new era. Forestry and grassland and other relevant departments and all parts of the Three Norths have integrated their forces and made efforts in the same direction to march to the Three Norths, comprehensively launch the three landmark campaigns, and strengthen the comprehensive prevention and control of desertification and the construction of key ecological projects such as the "Three Norths". All parts of the country have adhered to the integrated protection and systematic management of mountains, rivers, forests, fields, lakes, grasslands and sands, extensively carried out ecological protection and restoration, continued to promote scientific greening, significantly accelerated the pace of afforestation and greening, grass planting and improvement and desertification of sandy and rocky desertification, and strengthened the protection and restoration of grasslands and wetlands.
This year, the new changes and new look are gratifying. The plan for deepening the reform of the collective forest tenure system has been issued and implemented, the reform of the collective forest tenure system has been solidly promoted, the state-owned forest farms have served the collective forest reform, and the pilot projects for sustainable forest management have been carried out in a standardized manner, and new progress has been made in key reforms and pilot construction. The organization of the forest chief system has been strengthened, the innovative measures have been more practical, and the leading role has been continuously strengthened. Some key and difficult problems have been resolved, and the building of grassroots forestry and grassland contingents has been strengthened. Strictly protect hard-won forest and grass resources, strengthen forest and grassland fire prevention, increase the prevention and control of forest and grass pests, and resolutely adhere to the bottom line of fire prevention and insect prevention.
This year, new leaps and new achievements make people happy. The construction of national parks and nature reserves has been carried out in an orderly manner, and the construction of the national botanical garden system has been actively promoted. International cooperation in the conservation of giant pandas has shown a good image, and new achievements have been made in wildlife conservation. The world's first international mangrove center was established in Shenzhen, and a three-year action plan and a global action plan were released to accelerate the development of "bamboo instead of plastic", actively promoting global ecological governance. The forestry and grassland industry has developed healthily, the infrastructure construction and improvement of people's livelihood in forest areas have been strengthened, and the support capacity of forestry and grassland science and technology has been continuously improved.
The green water and green mountains are more colorful, and the land of China is full of greenery. These achievements and changes condense the hard work and sweat of forest and grass workers, and gather the actions and dedication of the public. The green is quietly spreading, and the plants and trees grow quietly, witnessing the years, showing civilization and containing vitality.
Start again and again, and wait for the four sequences to be updated. The year 2024 marks the 75th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China and is a crucial year for achieving the goals of the 14th Five-Year Plan. In the new year, we must focus on key points, continue to work hard, work hard, and work hard to promote the high-quality development of forestry and grassland work. In the process of promoting the work, we should pay attention to both quantity and quality, pay attention to the priority and rational utilization of overall protection, pay attention to give full play to the leading role of the forest chief system, pay attention to strengthen the standardized management of capital projects, pay attention to prevention first, resolutely adhere to the bottom line, pay attention to strengthen the basic support capacity, and pay attention to telling the Chinese story well.
The blueprint is drawn, and the sails are hoisted again. Embarking on a new journey and anchoring a new goal, the forest and grass people have a glorious mission and a great responsibility. We must deeply practice the idea of ecological civilization, vigorously carry forward the spirit of Saihanba, always remember the Zheng Zheng oath of making the mountains and rivers splendid and painting the land into Danqing, and consciously be a good ecological civilization builder and the guardian of the most beautiful land.
