Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC) in 2012, the CPC Central Committee with Xi Jinping at the core has pursued sustainable development and a strategy of eco-conservation in building socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era. It has created new theories, practices and institutional mechanisms and put forward a host of new ideas and new strategies, giving rise to Xi Jinping thought on eco-civilization. This is an important component of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era. It captures the innovative theories and practices of the central leadership on the governance of China, in particular in eco-environmental protection and conservation, and provides fundamental principles and guidance for action in the new era.文章源自英文巴士-https://www.en84.com/13632.html

1．中国将坚定不移推进生态文明建设。我经常说，发展经济不能对资源和生态环境竭泽而渔，生态环境保护也不是舍弃经济发展而缘木求鱼。中国坚持绿水青山就是金山银山的理念，推动山水林田湖草沙一体化保护和系统治理，全力以赴推进生态文明建设，全力以赴加强污染防治，全力以赴改善人民生产生活环境。中国正在建设全世界最大的国家公园体系。中国去年成功承办联合国《生物多样性公约》第十五次缔约方大会，为推动建设清洁美丽的世界作出了贡献。

1. China will remain committed to eco-environmental conservation. As I have said many times, we should never grow the economy at the cost of resource depletion and environmental degradation, which is like draining a pond to get fish; nor should we sacrifice growth to protect the environment, which is like climbing a tree in search of fish. Guided by our philosophy that lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets, China has carried out holistic conservation and systematic governance of its mountains, rivers, forests, farmlands, lakes, grasslands and deserts. We do everything we can to conserve the eco-environment, intensify pollution prevention and control, and improve the living and working environment for our people. China is now putting in place the world’s largest national park system. Last year, we successfully hosted COP15 to the Convention on Biological Diversity, contributing China’s share to a clean and beautiful world.

2．党的十八大以来，党中央贯彻新发展理念，坚定不移走生态优先、绿色低碳发展道路，着力推动经济社会发展全面绿色转型，取得了显著成效。我们建立健全绿色低碳循环发展经济体系，持续推动产业结构和能源结构调整，启动全国碳市场交易，宣布不再新建境外煤电项目，加快构建“双碳”政策体系，积极参与气候变化国际谈判，展现了负责任大国的担当。实现“双碳”目标，不是别人让我们做，而是我们自己必须要做。我国已进入新发展阶段，推进“双碳”工作是破解资源环境约束突出问题、实现可持续发展的迫切需要，是顺应技术进步趋势、推动经济结构转型升级的迫切需要，是满足人民群众日益增长的优美生态环境需求、促进人与自然和谐共生的迫切需要，是主动担当大国责任、推动构建人类命运共同体的迫切需要。我们必须充分认识实现“双碳”目标的重要性，增强推进“双碳”工作的信心。

2. Since the 18th CPC National Congress in 2012, the Central Committee has put the new development philosophy in action, pursuing green and low-carbon development that prioritizes environmental protection. Marked progress has been made in powering the transition towards a green economy and society. We have established a sound economic structure that facilitates green, low-carbon, and circular development, adjusted the structure of industry and energy, launched the national carbon trading market, announced a halt to new coal-fired power plants overseas, accelerated the creation of a policy framework for peak carbon dioxide emissions and carbon neutrality, and actively participated in international negotiations on climate change.

All these efforts demonstrate China’s sense of responsibility as a major country.

We pursue the goals of peak carbon dioxide emissions and carbon neutrality not under compulsion but of our own accord. As we have entered a new stage of development, there is a serious need to achieve these goals, which will help to ease resource and environmental constraints and realize sustainable development. We must embrace technological advances, promote transformation and upgrading of the economic structure, meet the people’s growing expectation for a beautiful eco-environment, and promote harmony between humanity and nature. All of this derives from the need to take on our responsibility as a major country and build a global community of shared future.

In short, we must fully understand the importance of peak carbon dioxide emissions and carbon neutrality, and increase our confidence in meeting these goals.

3．中华民族自古以来尊重自然、热爱自然。我对应对气候变化高度重视，一直强调“绿水青山就是金山银山”，这个理念在当今中国深入人心。我们要求全社会像保护眼睛一样保护自然和生态环境，积极推进绿色发展，建设美丽中国。中国正在开展前所未有的应对气候变化行动，已经取得了显著成效，还将继续取得更大成果。

3. The Chinese nation has always cherished a respect and love for nature. I always place tackling climate change high on my agenda and have always highlighted that lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets – a view that has become widely shared across China today. China has called on the whole of society to protect the eco-environment as we protect our eyes, and actively promote green development to build a beautiful China. China is conducting the largest-ever climate campaign. It has produced notable results and will continue to make a great difference.
