China Network live broadcast, the following is the text record:
Hong Kong Economic Herald reporter:
We have learned that in recent years, Tianjin has vigorously implemented the "871" major ecological project. The green ecological barrier between the central urban area and the Binhai New Area has formed a scale, attracting a large number of tourists and citizens to relax and play, and has become an internet celebrity check-in place. Please introduce the relevant situation, thank you.
Jin Xiangjun:
Thank you for your question and thank you for your attention to Tianjin. In the report, the General Secretary mentioned twice that "green water and green mountains are gold and silver mountains." Tianjin's "871" ecological project is a strategic choice for the Tianjin Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government to implement Xi Jinping's ecological civilization thought and protect the green waters and green mountains for future generations. What is the password of
"871"? Next I will explain it to you. Let’s talk about “8” first. “8” means that we restore and restore the 875 square kilometers of wetlands in Tianjin. As a city, Tianjin is located at the bottom of Jiuhe River due to its location and history. In fact, it has good wetland resources, but it is scattered in different directions. We integrate and manage and repair four large pieces of wetlands in a unified manner, such as Qilihai , Beidagang, Tuanbowa , and Dahuangbao, a total of four pieces, which are 875 square kilometers. After years of hard work, the diversity of in the ecological has been well restored. For example, in the past, there were only a few or a dozen or so in Qilihai, and by the spring of this year there were more than 4,000. The "1" behind
is a 153-kilometer coastline. Tianjin is located in Bohai Bay , so close to Beijing, and has unique coastal resources, so we must also make good use of it. Due to past developments, some unstoppable situations have occurred in the original coastline. In recent years, in accordance with the deployment and arrangements of the General Secretary, we have carried out the comprehensive management battle of the Bohai Sea and implemented the Blue Bay Remediation and Restoration Project. After unremitting efforts, all 12 rivers entering the sea have eliminated the fifth category of inferiority. The excellent water quality rate in nearshore waters has exceeded 70%. The "7" in the middle of
is the 736 square kilometers green ecological barrier mentioned just now between the central urban area and the Binhai New Area. According to past considerations, these two urban areas should develop in the same direction and be connected together. Since 2017, the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government have implemented the new development concept of and made decisive decisions to leave such a large area of land that can be used for industrial or real estate development and can achieve relatively considerable benefits in the short term. "Leave white space, leave green, and leave pure", calculate long-term accounts and comprehensive accounts, and retain an ecological green barrier for future generations. It is also through our efforts in recent years that we should basically form a green pattern of "three parts forest, three parts field, three parts water, and one part grass". We keep a lot of wetland green corridors on the ancient coast, like the rice fields of ten thousand acres of small stations. Urban forests and urban pastorals composed mainly of such elements have become internet celebrities’ check-in spots, and have become a good place for citizens to relax and experience nature.
Taking this opportunity, I also sincerely send an invitation to all the media friends, please take the time to take a walk, take a look, check in, and experience the new changes in Tianjin's ecology. Thank you everyone.
