The development of the new era and new journey must completely, accurately and comprehensively implement the new development concept, and must be high-quality development. It is necessary to realize that high-quality development is not just an economic requirement, but a general requirement for all aspects of economic and social development. The modern ecological environment protection in harmony between man and nature can promote higher quality, more efficient, fairer, more sustainable and safer development.
