The beautiful scenery of Qinling Mountains has four distinct seasons.

Say goodbye to the lush spring and summer seasons and the late autumn when the forest is dyed. Dressed up in a heavy snow in early winter, the majestic Qinling Mountains showed another kind of magnificence, which made people more deeply understand the meaning of being wrapped in white and enchanting, and also increased the attachment and love of the world for the Great Qinling Mountains.

On July 20 12, Xi' an put forward five key tasks related to Xi' an's long-term development, which formed the city's consciousness of * * *, including the ecological environment protection at the northern foot of Qinling Mountains, and clearly put forward that we should continue to promote the ecological environment protection at the northern foot of Qinling Mountains with an attitude of being responsible to history and the people, and strive to build a beautiful Xi' an where people live in harmony with nature.

It is an inevitable choice for Xi's sustainable development to protect the Great Qinling Mountains and make the green mountains and green mountains sustainable, and it is also a historical responsibility to make contributions to the present and benefit the future. Over the past five years, the whole city has been persistent, and Qi Xin has made unremitting efforts to protect the ecological environment and maintain the ecological function at the northern foot of Qinling Mountains, and achieved remarkable results.

Long-term mechanism

Establishing the Path of "Curing the Root Cause" under the Framework of Rule of Law

There are no rules, Fiona Fang. Only by implementing the strictest system and the strictest rule of law can we provide a reliable institutional guarantee for the construction of ecological civilization.

20 13,10,65438 On June 0, the Regulations on Ecological Environment Protection of Xi Qinling was promulgated and implemented. This is the first local regulation specially formulated for a mountain in a large and medium-sized city in China, which indicates that Xi has entered the era of "rule of law" for ecological environment protection in Qinling Mountains. This regulation, together with Shaanxi Qinling Ecological Environment Protection Regulations, xi Qinling Ecological Environment Protection Zone Investment Project Management Measures (Trial), Qinling Ecological Environment Protection Work Assessment Interim Measures and laws and regulations of various departments, weaves a "legal network" and constitutes a relatively complete legal system for Qinling protection.

At the same time, on the basis of the 13th Five-Year Plan for ecological environment protection in Anqing, the city has promoted the work of "multi-regulation integration", and successively compiled the Ecological Environment Protection Plan for Anqing Section, the General Plan for Protection and Utilization of Anqing Section, and the Controlled Plan for Cuihua-Wutai, Louguan, Taiping, Yufeng and Tangyu, forming a relatively complete planning system for ecological environment protection in Qinling.

The Qinling Office of the Municipal People's Government has conducted many special investigations and discussions, analyzed and judged the existing problems, and put forward some suggestions, such as adjusting and rationalizing the responsibilities of the city, district (county) Qinling protection agencies, consolidating the main responsibility of the district (county) government and the direct responsibility of the town (street), and promoting the sinking of law enforcement forces, which effectively promoted the improvement of the management mechanism.

In order to protect the ecological environment of Qinling Mountains, Xi 'an established a "permanent cure" path under the framework of the rule of law.

active action

Full implementation of Qinling ecological environment protection project

Nowadays, many cyclists are familiar with the greenway around the mountain highway. This landmark road section has not only become a convenient passage for people to work and relax along the mountain, but also the most important landscape corridor at the northern foot of Qinling Mountains.

In recent years, the whole city has taken the initiative, taken various measures, and carefully built it, with a total investment of 3 billion yuan, which has comprehensively improved and upgraded the ecological environment at the northern foot of the Qinling Mountains and done a lot of work well received by the people. From 20 1 1 to 20 14, the afforestation project of visible slope in the northern foot of Qinling Mountain is 28,900 mu. From 20 15, the greening and beautification project on both sides of the mountain road 166 km will be promoted with high quality, and 3 104 million trees and shrubs will be planted, with a green area of/kloc-0.04 million square meters. 2 1 km solar street lamp from Taiyigong to Fengyukou turntable was built and lit. Two ecological node squares, four farmers' markets and 2 1 parking lot were officially put into use. Huxian 2 1 km greenway demonstration project was completed and put into use; Complete the construction of 7 boundary markers, including important nodes, key Yukou, Woods Avenue and east-west entrances and exits; The first phase of the comprehensive transformation and upgrading project in Fengyukou area has been completed; The old Yanshan Road connection and reconstruction project and the comprehensive improvement and upgrading project of the northern foot of Qinling Mountain 18 River were successfully implemented; Qinling Zhong Nanshan World geological museum opens.

Behind the figures is hard and solid work. The goal of "protecting a green hill, protecting eight rivers and building a beautiful Xi" has achieved practical results, with more trees, lights on, wider roads and beautiful scenery, and the reputation of ordinary people is getting better and better.

On the one hand, increase investment in ecological construction. On the other hand, on the basis of the principle of maximum protection, our city strictly examines and approves the access of construction projects, and strictly implements the planning and protection requirements of the ecological protection zone at the northern foot of Qinling Mountains, which prohibits the construction of new construction projects that pollute water sources and damage the environment. Since 20 13, * * has approved 88 ecological protection, eco-tourism, infrastructure, national defense construction and other projects. Many projects affecting ecological environment protection have been rejected, and the ecology at the northern foot of Qinling Mountain is improving day by day.

An iron fist governs chaos

Say "no" to the act of destroying the ecological environment

To protect the ecological environment at the northern foot of the Qinling Mountains, we should say "no" to those behaviors that destroy the ecological environment. In the past five years, the city has continued to carry out the normalization and rectification of ecological environment protection in Qinling Mountains, and severely cracked down on the acts of "indiscriminate occupation and construction, indiscriminate mining, indiscriminate mining, and indiscriminate logging", and the "four chaos" has been effectively curbed.

Zheng Shihua, director of the Mine Management Office of the Municipal Bureau of Land and Resources, said that in recent years, the city has strictly implemented the Xi Mineral Resources Plan (2006-2020) and continued to crack down on illegal sand mining and quarrying in Qinling Mountains. The problem of illegal mining has been completely curbed, and there has been no large-scale and systematic illegal mining. The situation of mine supervision is generally controllable. 20 15, all illegal exploration and mining activities have been banned; The development of various mineral resources was closed in an orderly manner, and the legal mineral rights were reduced from 106 in 2004 to 45. In the past four years, 40 mines have been closed. By the end of 2020, the number of mining rights will be controlled within 17, and the number of mines in the city will be reduced by 72% compared with 20 14, reaching the national green mine construction standard.

In the process of comprehensive improvement of the surrounding environment of the mountain road, according to the idea of "a green line runs through the end", the Qinling Office of the city coordinated and organized the Qinling Office of the district to carry out the normalized comprehensive improvement of the tourism environment on both sides of the mountain road, and promptly dismantled and cleaned up illegal doorposts, lanterns, house numbers and occupied business stalls; Clean up domestic garbage and construction garbage in time; Timely investigation and rectification of illegal super-high buildings, now the landscape corridors criss-crossing the mountain roads have become more beautiful and colorful.

Once upon a time, the illegal construction at the northern foot of the Qinling Mountains intensified, leaving the green mountains and green waters scarred and the back garden that originally belonged to Xi citizens became the private territory of a few people. In March of 20 14, the Xi Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government took the initiative to crack down on illegal buildings under the framework of the rule of law, so that there was "nowhere to hide" the acts that destroyed the ecological environment in Qinling Mountains, which created a new situation of ecological environment protection in Qinling Mountains. This action has been fully affirmed by national and provincial leaders.

In 20 14, 202 illegal buildings were disposed of in the whole city, 57 buildings were confiscated according to law, and ecological restoration was carried out on the demolition site and surrounding environment of 145.06 mu. In 20 15, illegal buildings were newly investigated 10 (2 buildings in zhouzhi county and 8 buildings in Chang 'an District), 5 buildings were demolished according to law, 4 buildings were rectified, and 1 building was confiscated; Re-approved the demolition of 3 of 202 illegal buildings (Huxian). Xi 'an curbed the spread and diffusion of ecological environment damage in Qinling Mountains with practical actions, which not only greatly shocked the ecological environment damage in Qinling Mountains, but also provided a "Xi 'an Plan" for the national nature reserve to rectify illegal construction according to law in terms of remediation scale, law enforcement procedures and punishment methods.

The participation of all the people

Leave a perfect green mountain and green water for future generations.

In the process of ecological environment protection in Qinling Mountains, our city has always adhered to the combination of protection and enriching people. From 20 13 to 20 15, during the three-year poverty alleviation work in Xi' an, there were 72 poor towns (street offices) and 40 Qinling nature reserves, accounting for 56% of the total. In order to help the local people in Qinling area get rid of poverty and become rich as soon as possible, vigorously develop ecological agriculture and tourism, and replace the traditional economic model, a large-scale agriculture represented by Zhouzhi Kiwifruit, Huxian Grape, Lantian Walnut and Chang 'an Modern Agriculture has been formed. Formed a farmhouse economic model based on natural resources and picking tourism; Carry out the construction of ancient towns represented by Yushan Ancient Town, Gepai Ancient Town in Lantian County and Houfanzi Ancient Town in zhouzhi county, promote the construction of beautiful countryside such as Huayang Temple and A Gu Quan in Huxian County, and build a town with Hongqingshan style in Baqiao District; The relocation of 84,000 people in six first-class water source protection areas has strengthened water source protection, creating conditions for getting rid of poverty and becoming rich.

At the same time, vigorously develop the eco-tourism economy in Qinling Mountains, and complement the advantages of Guanzhong Plain tourism belt with human landscape as the main body, forming the basic framework for the development of tourism resources in Xi. Relying on 6 nature reserves, 14 forest parks, 1 national scenic spots, 38 tourist attractions, 2 geological parks, world cultural heritage, cultural monuments, 6 Buddhist ancestral temples, 8 intangible cultural heritage resources and religious temples, we will develop tourism resources and highlight the combination of "the natural beauty of Qinling mountains and rivers and the long-standing historical and cultural beauty of ancient Chang 'an". Building a cultural tourism belt along the mountain with Qinling Wildlife Park as the core and extending to the east and west wings, radiation will drive the rapid development of the surrounding economy.

In order to make the concept of protecting Qinling more deeply rooted in people's hearts, the Municipal Qinling Office organized a series of activities to show the people the humanistic ecology of Qinling and let more people participate in the action of protecting and caring for Qinling. From 20 12, the volunteer activity of "Grateful for Qinling-I Plant Trees for Qinling" was organized for four consecutive years; 20 13, organize the "Third Qinling Summit Forum" and "Care and Watch-Damei Qinling", the invitation exhibition of famous contemporary painters in China, the century-old classic video exhibition and the urban directional movement; 20 14, the educational activity of "Re-taking the Red Army Road and Grateful for the Great Qinling Mountains" was held; 20 15 launched the special activity of "Watch the Great Qinling Mountains-Ask Zhong Nanshan" to ask the masses, society and celebrities about the protection of Qinling Mountains; This year, more than 2,000 volunteers were organized to participate in the "Volunteer Green Action" public welfare activities. Moistening things quietly, these activities have influenced everyone in Xi' an imperceptibly and achieved tangible results.

Today, Xi has entered a new stage in protecting the ecological environment of Qinling Mountains, and this protection will continue, and it will certainly become a strategic project, ecological project, cultural project and people's livelihood project that will benefit Xi's long-term development.
