Four factors in the second phase of Beijing-Tianjin sandstorm source control project

Consolidate and upgrade the achievements of the first-phase project

In p>2, in order to improve the air quality in Beijing and Tianjin, the state launched the Beijing-Tianjin sandstorm source control project urgently. In the first 1 years of the project implementation, the state allocated a total of 41.2 billion yuan, and completed 9.2 million mu of returning farmland to forests and afforestation, 13 million mu of grassland management, 11,8 square kilometers of small watershed comprehensive management, and more than 17, ecological immigrants. The forest coverage rate in the project area will be increased to 15%.

According to the introduction of the Development and Reform Commission, although the first phase of the project has achieved remarkable results, the ecological environment in the project area is still very fragile, the trend of ecological deterioration in some areas has not been fundamentally reversed, the coverage of forest and grass vegetation is still not high, and the soil anti-erosion ability is poor.

at present, most of the artificial vegetation built in the first phase of the project is in the middle and young age, and the species of trees and grasses are relatively single, with poor stability, weak resistance to drought, wind erosion and pests and diseases, which is easily reversed by the influence of the external environment.

as of 29, the area of desertification land in the project area is 5,412,7 hectares, and the task of desertification control is very arduous. In addition, the ecological protection system in the project area is not perfect, and a large area of farmland and grassland has not been effectively protected. Therefore, in order to further improve the ecological environment of Beijing-Tianjin area and improve the control effect, it is urgent to start the second phase of the Beijing-Tianjin sandstorm source control project.

further reduce the sandstorm hazards in Beijing and Tianjin

according to the development and reform commission, there are three transmission paths affecting sandstorm weather in Beijing and Tianjin, namely Northwest Road, North Road and West Road, accounting for 5.8%, 29.5% and 19.7% of the frequency of sandstorm weather affecting Beijing and Tianjin respectively. From the point of view of centralized control of key sandstorm source areas and national financial capacity, the control scope of the first phase of the project only covers the sandstorm source area and strengthening area of the North Road and some downstream areas of the Northwest Road and the West Road.

after more than 1 years of treatment, although the sand blowing weather affecting Beijing and Tianjin has been reduced, it has not covered the dust source areas and strengthening areas far away from Beijing and Tianjin, and has little impact on the floating dust weather mainly originating from distant dust source areas and strengthening areas.

The relevant person in charge of the Development and Reform Commission said that since 2, on the whole, the occurrence of sandstorm weather in Beijing has been decreasing, but sandstorm weather still occurs every year, especially the problem of floating dust weather has not been solved. Therefore, it is necessary to further reduce the sandstorm hazards in Beijing and Tianjin, reduce the impact of sandstorm weather on Beijing and Tianjin, continue to implement the sandstorm source control project in Beijing and Tianjin, and appropriately expand the scope of control.

Building an ecological barrier in the north and implementing the goal of "double increase" in forestry

The Development and Reform Commission said that the 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China put forward a strategic concept of building an ecological civilization. In 27, when the central leading comrades inspected the ecological construction in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, they pointed out that it is necessary to build a good ecological barrier in the north of the motherland. Building a green ecological barrier in the north is a strategic measure to resist ecological disasters and maintain ecological security. Beijing-Tianjin sandstorm source control project is an important part of ecological barrier construction in northern China.

In p>29, Chinese leaders promised at the United Nations Climate Change Summit that by 22, China's forest area will increase by 4 million hectares compared with 25, and the forest stock will increase by 1.3 billion cubic meters compared with 25.

the person in charge of the relevant departments of the development and reform commission said that the area of barren hills (sand) wasteland suitable for forest in the area where the Beijing-Tianjin sandstorm source control project is located is still very large, and it is the main battlefield for implementing the goal of "double growth" of forestry (double growth of forest area and volume).

improving people's livelihood and building a well-off society

the information provided by the development and reform commission shows that the level of economic development in most areas of the project area is still very low except Beijing and Tianjin, and the per capita GDP has not reached the national average. The proportion of agricultural and animal husbandry population and poor population is still high, and 4% of the project counties are key counties for national poverty alleviation and development work or counties distributed in contiguous areas with special difficulties.

the development and reform commission believes that at present, the scale of the follow-up industries in the project area is not large, and the driving effect on the regional economy and the poverty alleviation of farmers and herdsmen is still very small. Therefore, in order to promote regional economic development, improve the production and living conditions of farmers and herdsmen, and promote the process of building a well-off society in an all-round way, it is necessary to implement the second phase of Beijing-Tianjin sandstorm source control project.

according to the target set in the plan, by 217, the income of farmers and herdsmen in the project area will increase steadily, and the growth rate will not be lower than the income growth level of farmers and herdsmen in this province (autonomous regions and municipalities), and the production and living conditions of farmers and herdsmen will be significantly improved; By 222, the income of farmers and herdsmen in the project area will be stable above the national average level of farmers and herdsmen, the production and living conditions will be improved in an all-round way, and they will embark on the development path of production development, affluent life and good ecology.
