Green Reflection "Happy River" Sings "Happy Song" Together - China's Efforts to Build an Ecological Corridor Along the Yellow River

2023-09-22

Rushing down from the Qinghai Tibet Plateau, winding through mountains and basins, flowing through plains and hills, the Yellow River has nurtured the ancient civilization of China and is the root and soul of the Chinese nation. Efforts made by various regions to protect the ecology of the Yellow River can be seen everywhere on both sides of the Yellow River. With the implementation of the major national strategy for the Yellow River, it has become a consensus to coordinate the protection and co construction of ecological corridors along the Yellow River basin. The Yellow River has become a "happy river" that benefits the general public. Ecological priority is given to the estuary of the Yellow River, where the spectacular scene of river sea intersection unfolds. A yellow and green "ribbon" divides the river and seawater in two, making the river and sea clear and distinct. The great river is surrounded by soil, and a hundred birds gather in abundance. In recent years, through continuous ecological restoration, the number of birds in the Yellow River Delta National Nature Reserve has continued to increase. Every year, more than 6 million birds migrate, overwinter, and breed here, known as the "Bird International Airport". Once the river is clear, how long will life be? "The ancients sighed helplessly about the Yellow River and also filled with endless expectations. Since the establishment of New China, various regions along the Yellow River have strengthened water conservancy construction and protected the ecological environment. With the introduction of the major national strategy for the Yellow River, the construction of the ecological corridor along the Yellow River has achieved daily results, and the ecological protection of the Yellow River Basin has ushered in a new chapter. Driving along the riverside water system in Yinchuan City, Ningxia, the wetlands of all sizes along the Yellow River form a beautiful ecological picture. Yinchuan City connects 8 wetlands into the Yellow River, and intercepts 9 mainly into the Yellow River drainage ditch. By scientifically planting plants such as reeds, calamus, water lilies, and lotus, and releasing aquatic animals such as fish, shrimp, and shellfish, a complete wetland ecological purification system is constructed in the riverside water system. The concentration of major pollutants has significantly decreased, and the water quality entering the Yellow River drainage ditch has all met the standards, "said Lv Jinhu, deputy director of the Yinchuan Wetland Protection Center. The riverside water system has not only become an ecological corridor, but also formed a" purifier "to effectively protect the ecological environment of the Yellow River water. The concept of ecological priority now runs through various regions along the Yellow River. As the only provincial capital city that passes through the Yellow River, since August 2019, Lanzhou City in Gansu Province has vigorously implemented land greening and actively carried out ecological restoration and protection in key areas. Currently, a total of 419500 acres of afforestation have been completed, 86000 acres of grassland ecological restoration have been completed, and 392.36 hectares of urban green space have been newly renovated. The achievements achieved in Lanzhou are not easy won, "said Zhang Shouqi, a first-class researcher at the Lanzhou Forestry Bureau. The local afforestation site conditions are relatively poor, but they have always adhered to the rational use of water harvesting and water-saving afforestation technologies, continuously improving water conservation capacity. Ecological co governance is located in Yinchuan City, where there is a factory dedicated to "turning waste into treasure" - solid waste such as fly ash, slag, and desulfurization gypsum undergo multiple production processes, ultimately turning into green and environmentally friendly new building materials. The source of solid waste is Ningxia Power Investment Xixia Thermal Power Co., Ltd., a "major waste producer" located adjacent to the factory. According to Wu Yuhua, the person in charge of project construction, the entire production process does not generate wastewater or waste, and the waste heat of the thermal power plant is efficiently utilized. The final product also does not contain harmful substances. On the banks of the Yellow River, the formation of green industry clusters has accelerated, carbon reduction, pollution reduction, and green expansion have progressed smoothly, and the innovation and synergy of the industrial chain have taken firm steps. This not only contributes to the construction of the ecological corridor along the Yellow River, but also becomes a key focus for China's high-quality development
