"Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets." Chongming unswervingly takes the road of ecological priority and green development, and strives to build a world-class ecological island, which has become an ecological business card for Shanghai to build a modern international metropolis and show the world an example of "harmonious coexistence between man and nature".
On the occasion of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Propaganda Department of the Shanghai Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China, the International Propaganda Office of the Shanghai Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China, Wen Wei Po, the Shanghai Federation of Social Sciences, and the Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences jointly produced the first season of the series of short documentaries "Let's Talk About Great Changes" is on the air. From the perspective of scholars, it explains the vivid practice of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era in Shanghai. Today, the third episode of "Butterfly Changes to Chongming Island" is launched, and together with Professor Zhu Dajian of the School of Economics and Management of Tongji University, we will experience the gratifying achievements of Chongming's world-class ecological island construction.
The construction of Chongming's world-class ecological island is an important practice of the "Two Mountains" theory in the metropolis of Shanghai. —Zhu Dajian.
Walking on the Yangtze River embankment at the south gate of Chongming, the rolling river water lapping on the embankment, Zhu Dajian recalled the scene of coming to Chongming by boat, as an expert who participated in the strategic planning of Chongming Dongtan, he witnessed the extraordinary journey of Chongming Ecological Island along the way, "At that time, we felt that Chongming at the mouth of the Yangtze River should and could tell a story of Shanghai's future green new development." ”
The reeds swayed in the wind, the birds flew freely, and the tranquil Chongming Dongtan wetland in front of them made Zhu Dajian can't help but raise his mobile phone and leave the beauty of this moment. As a unique feng shui treasure in Shanghai, Chongming Eco-Island has created a green space with the harmony of ecology, production and life in Chinese-style modernization. Zhu Dajian said Chongming Island is the only regional case in the green economy textbook written with experts from the United Nations Environment Programme. With the restoration of the ecology, more and more rare animals come here, "from flying in the sky to swimming in the water, biodiversity makes Chongming have important ecological value in the world, representing the world-class level of Chongming ecology." ”
The world-class of "production" is reflected in Chongming's green agriculture as the core basic industry, creating world-class modern high-tech agriculture, characteristic seed source agriculture, and Chongming's green food, with the highest coverage rate in the country; The world-class of "life" is reflected in all aspects of low-carbon and green-oriented living, travel, etc., Chongming has taken the lead in exploring the path of "carbon neutrality", and a low-carbon ecological island with a leading role is becoming a reality.
I often say that the first fire in China's urban transformation to sustainable development was 'burned' from Chongming's vision of building a world-class ecological island. Zhu Dajian said that the positioning of Chongming's world-class ecological island is a historical choice, and it also reflects a forward-looking strategic vision. In fact, this also represents the urban development of Shanghai, from the era of Suzhou Creek and Huangpu River to the era of Yangtze River Estuary and Hangzhou Bay.
Zhu Dajian believes that the most important idea of Chongming to play the "ecological card" is "ecology +", which is to transform the advantages of ecology into the advantages of economic and social development. "In the future, Shanghai should not only build a modern international metropolis with economic and social prosperity, but also build a modern international metropolis with ecological civilization with Chinese characteristics. ”
