The implementation of the green development philosophy for harmony between humanity and nature is a keen understanding of ecological conservation built by the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core.It is also a must-do in order to fully build a modern socialist country on the basis of completing the goal of building a moderately prosperous society in all respects.Xi Jinping’s vision of green development germinated in an international and domestic environment.Domestically,it is the right choice for solving environmental problems;the strategic policy for implementing the“Five-sphere” Integrated Plan and the essential requirement for transforming traditional production modes.Moreover,it is the careful consideration for modernizing ecological governance system and capacity;the value orientation for achieving “carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals” as well as the essential precondition for realizing common prosperity.Internationally,the vision of green development was born in the deepening of global ecological crisis and awakening of environmental protection awareness.Xi Jinping’s vision of green development has a sound theoretical basis.It adapts Marxism vision for ecological conservation to the Chinese context and inherits Chinese traditional ecological idea that “human beings are an integral part of nature” and should “follow the laws of nature.” In addition,it draws lessons from experience of western countries.Specifically speaking,the vision of green development consists of three key components: goal,content and pathway.It aims at keeping up with people’s ever-growing needs for a better environment,promoting the construction of a beautiful China and achieving China’s modernization “featuring harmony between humanity and nature.” The main contents are the concept that “people are the foundation” of a state,the idea that “the environment is pivotal to people’s well-being”,the green development vision that “lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets”,the sustainable development vision that “the rise or fall of a civilization is closely tied to its relationship with nature”,the ecological conservation vision that “human beings should respect nature,follow its ways and protect it.” In terms of pathways,we must uphold the CPC’s overall leadership,promote a healthy and green approach to life and work,advocate a community of harmony between humanity and nature.Xi Jinping’s vision of green development is of great theoretical and practical importance.In theory,it inherits ecological conservation theories of Marxist classical authors and adapts them to the Chinese context.Furthermore,it innovates the theories of the twenty-first century.In practice,it contributes China’s solutions to improving the environment with a holistic approach and building a homeland of harmonious coexistence between humanity and nature. |
