Situation 1
"Mother River" is seriously ill
In recent years, Hangzhou's major watershed water quality has been declining year by year, especially in the Qiantang River basin pollution has intensified, and has been
deteriorating trend. In the increasingly scarce water resources at the same time, the upstream Lanjiang water pollution and Hangzhou regional pollution superposition, resulting in the basin of water in the ammonia and nitrogen, total phosphorus, dissolved oxygen, petroleum and other indicators exceeded from time to time, pollution accidents are frequent, Hangzhou, Hangzhou, drinking water sources and ecological environment poses a direct threat. The "Mother River" has been seriously ill.
Situation 2
Air quality days
80.22%
Last year, Hangzhou air quality days 292 days, accounting for 80.22% of the number of days of the statistics, inhaled particulate matter as the main pollutants, the annual average concentration has exceeded the second standard, the situation is not optimistic.
Hangzhou produces more than 4 million tons of industrial solid waste each year, although the comprehensive disposal and utilization rate has reached more than 90%, but there is still a part of not properly disposed of.
Hangzhou's acoustic environment quality is at a mildly polluted level and is on the rise.
Situation 3
Industrial structural pollution is still serious
The contradiction of "old factories and new homes" is becoming more and more prominent, and the first batch of polluting enterprises are not progressing well in relocation. Qiantang River basin in the middle and upper reaches of the region's chemical and paper enterprises and the basin of the river sand mining, yellow sand wharf, ship transportation and other pollution is a constant threat to the people of Hangzhou drinking water source safety.
From the situation in Hangzhou, the current batch of seriously polluting traditional industries in Hangzhou industry still accounts for a large proportion, such as printing and dyeing and dyeing and chemical enterprises in Xiaoshan District, Fuyang City, paper enterprises, chemical enterprises in Jiande City, and Tonglu County's electroplating enterprises, stone processing enterprises and so on has been a major factor leading to regional and watershed pollution.
Industrial structural pollution is still serious, and the new round of development has added to the environmental pressure.
Measures to carry out "1278 environmental pollution remediation action"
2005 to 2007, Hangzhou will carry out "1278 environmental pollution remediation action". "1": urban air pollution remediation; "2": Qiantang River Basin and Taihu Lake Basin (Campsis, Canal) two watersheds water environment remediation; "7": seven key regulatory areas pollution Remediation; "8": eight key industries pollution remediation. The Qiantang River Basin Hangzhou region within the scope of the water environment remediation is the most important.
Hangzhou City, by 2007, urban environmental pollution and ecological damage trends basically under control, the outstanding environmental pollution problems basically solved, the first in the province to fully build the environmental quality and key pollution automatic monitoring network, environmental pollution prevention and control capacity has been enhanced, environmental quality has improved.
Shanghai World Expo environmental protection work "four aspects", "four sets of mechanisms"
Shanghai World Expo 2010 put forward the "city, make life better! The theme of "Better City, Better Life" is "green, low-carbon, ecological and environmental protection". These concepts will be reflected not only in the 184 days of the Expo, but also in the environmental protection work since Shanghai's application for the Expo and in the future.
The World Expo is not only a comprehensive test for Shanghai's environmental protection work, but also a rare historic opportunity.
One of the overall arrangements for environmental protection work in the World Expo
Can be summarized as "four aspects", "four sets of mechanisms".
"Four aspects": In order to organize a "Green Expo", "low-carbon Expo", Shanghai in accordance with the "normal long-term mainly, The key to strengthen the protection of the work of the idea, mainly from the improvement of the city's ecological environment, promote the surface environmental remediation, strengthen the protection of environmental air quality and advocate the concept of "low-carbon World Expo" "green World Expo" and so on four aspects to start, the comprehensive and in-depth promotion of the city's environmental protection and environmental protection of the city's environment and the concept of "low-carbon World Expo". Comprehensive, in-depth to promote the city's environmental protection and ecological construction, to promote the city's environmental protection work to a new level, with a better ecological environment to ensure that the World Expo's "successful, wonderful, unforgettable", and strive to lay a solid foundation for the city's future sustainable development.
"Four sets of mechanisms": The Shanghai Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government attach great importance to the environmental protection of the World Expo, and ensure the implementation and promotion of all the work from the institutional mechanism and investment. The first is to systematically promote urban environmental protection and ecological construction under the working mechanism of the Environmental Protection and Construction Coordination and Promotion Committee. The focus is to integrate the resources of the whole society to promote the implementation of pollution reduction work and environmental protection three-year action plan for rolling implementation. Secondly, under the working mechanism of the 600-day action plan to welcome the World Expo, we will comprehensively promote the comprehensive improvement of the urban environment. The river, dust, traffic noise, motor vehicles and boilers, black smoke, straw burning and other large-scale remediation work into the 600-day action plan to meet the World Expo, and strive to make environmental protection work to achieve full coverage. Third, the Yangtze River Delta regional cooperation mechanism to strengthen environmental air quality protection and other work. With the strong support of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, we have established a regional environmental cooperation mechanism with Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces to carry out joint prevention and control of regional pollution. Fourth, under the World Expo operation command system to promote the protection of the World Expo operation of the environmental protection work in an orderly manner. The municipal party committee and municipal government have set up the Municipal Cityscape and Environmental Protection Group under the main operation command of the Expo, coordinating the strength of all aspects, and *** with the promotion of the work related to the environmental protection of the Expo. In addition, set up by domestic and foreign experts in the Expo environmental advisory group, to provide technical support for the scientific advancement.
Second, the main progress
Through the city's various aspects of **** with the efforts of the current World Expo environmental protection work is being pushed forward in an orderly manner. The main progress in five areas:
First: solidly promote pollution reduction and environmental protection three-year action plan, environmental quality stabilized. Pollution reduction has made important progress, in 2009 the main pollutants chemical oxygen demand and sulfur dioxide emissions were cut by 19.9% and 26.1% respectively compared with 2005, a year ahead of schedule to meet the "Eleventh Five-Year" pollution reduction targets. Environmental protection three-year action plan for the implementation of obvious results, environmental infrastructure has been vigorously promoted, the city's sewage treatment rate from the "Tenth Five-Year" end of 70.2% to 78.9%, the rate of harmless treatment of domestic garbage from 55% to 82.3%, the basic realization of the full coverage of the desulphurization of the power plant, hazardous wastes, medical waste to get Centralized and safe disposal of hazardous wastes and medical wastes has been achieved; breakthroughs have been made in the comprehensive environmental remediation of key areas and regions, and the environmental management system has been further upgraded. The city's environmental quality is improving steadily. According to national standards, the good rate of ambient air quality characterized by sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide and particulate matter has been rising steadily, reaching 91.5% in 2009, the best level in the past 10 years, among which, the concentration of sulfur dioxide in ambient air has dropped from 0.061mg/m3 in 2005 to 0.035mg/m3, a decrease of 42.6%; the quality of water in the Huangpu River, Suzhou Creek and other major waterways has remained stable. remains stable. The concentration of chemical oxygen demand in the section of Yangpu Bridge of Huangpu River decreased from 18.3mg/L in 2005 to 13.5mg/L in 2009, a decrease of 26.3%. The second aspect: relying on the 600-day action plan to welcome the World Expo to promote the comprehensive improvement of the environment on the surface, the appearance of the urban environment has been significantly improved. Thirty key tasks have been clearly defined to improve the cityscape, citizens' living environment and urban management level, and the relevant functional departments of the city and the districts and counties have linked up to strengthen the environmental improvement of key scopes, key road sections and key areas. In the field of environmental protection, we have focused on the "Ten Thousand Rivers Rectification" action, strengthened the construction site dust pollution, boiler smoke emissions, motor vehicle smoke and honking, road traffic noise, straw burning and other aspects of the rectification, and increased law enforcement and supervision. Through the above-mentioned large-volume and wide-ranging remediation measures, the urban environmental outlook has been greatly improved, and some environmental problems directly affecting the quality of life of the public have been alleviated; moreover, by exploring the establishment of a long-term mechanism, the level of urban environmental management has been further improved. The third aspect: to strengthen local pollution control and regional joint prevention and control, and fully guarantee the environmental air quality of the World Expo. Air quality protection is mainly a three-pronged measure and progress: First, we have done our best to minimize the impact of Shanghai's local pollution emissions on regional environmental quality. The focus has been on efforts to promote targeted air pollution prevention and control measures such as desulphurization and denitrification of coal-fired power plants, structural adjustment of polluting enterprises, pollution control of coal-fired kilns, control of volatile organic compound emissions, control of dust pollution, and control of motor vehicle pollution. Through sustained efforts, the city has completed the construction of desulfurization facilities for all coal-fired power plant units of more than 10 million kilowatts and shut down 730,000 kilowatts of small and medium-sized coal-fired units; eliminated more than 3,000 high-pollution, high-energy-consumption, technologically and technologically outdated enterprises and production processes; implemented a cumulative total of nearly 6,000 coal-fired facilities with clean energy substitution and technological transformation; and completed oil and gas recycling for more than 420 gasoline stations; It has established a 728-square-kilometer "Dust Control Zone", implemented the National IV motor vehicle emission standard in advance, and completed the renewal of more than 8,000 buses and 40,000 cabs. Second, relying on the Yangtze River Delta regional environmental cooperation mechanism with Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces to implement joint prevention and control of regional air pollution. Focus*** with the implementation of pollution control measures for overhead sources such as power plants and other key industries such as iron and steel, chemicals and building materials within a 300-kilometer radius of the Expo site, the implementation of unified labeling management for motor vehicle pollution emissions, the full implementation of the straw-burning ban, and the realization of the ****sharing of emissions from key sources of pollution and ambient air quality monitoring data. Thirdly, the environmental air quality monitoring and early warning and forecasting system has been improved. It has formed an ambient air quality monitoring system consisting of 46 continuous automatic monitoring stations covering the Expo site, the periphery of the site and the whole city, and has formed an ambient air quality monitoring network with more than 30 urban environmental monitoring stations in the Yangtze River Delta region to comprehensively monitor and release ambient air quality information to the public in a timely manner, and has developed a 24-hour ambient air quality forecast and a 48-hour high-pollution early-warning system, which makes it easy to respond to special A 24-hour ambient air quality forecast and a 48-hour high-pollution warning system have also been developed to facilitate the adoption of corresponding countermeasures for possible pollution under special polluted meteorological conditions. The fourth aspect: fully implement the environmental security measures for the operation of the Expo, and carry out inspection drills in conjunction with the trial operation. First, the environmental safety and security work has been implemented. It focused on strengthening the control measures for radioactive sources, the use, transfer and storage of toxic chemicals and the collection and disposal of medical waste and hazardous waste at all stages, mapping out the main objects at risk of environmental pollution accidents one by one, formulating precautionary measures and emergency response plans, and carrying out emergency response linkage exercises for sudden pollution accidents in the Yangtze River Delta region. Secondly, the inspection of the implementation of pollution prevention and control measures has been strengthened. Special teams were set up at the municipal and county levels to inspect the implementation and effect of measures for the remediation of rivers, dust, black smoke and straw burning ban, and to implement corrective measures in a timely manner when problems are found. Thirdly, environmental protection facilities in the Expo site operate normally. The air quality monitoring system in the Expo site has been put into use, and will monitor the environmental quality of the park in real time and release it to the public; pollution prevention and control measures such as domestic garbage, sewage, oil fume gas from catering industry, noise, and other pollution control measures in the park have been tested during the trial operation. The fifth aspect: the concept of "low carbon" has been implemented throughout the preparation and holding of the World Expo, and the "Low Carbon World Expo" is being vigorously promoted and positively responded to by the whole society. The important task of the Expo is to lead the concept of future development. Combined with the theme of the Expo and the current international trend of "low-carbon development", Shanghai has released the Green Guide and Environmental Report for the Expo 2010 Shanghai China in the preparatory stage, and has made the "Low Carbon Expo" an important goal, which is being promoted and implemented. This is mainly reflected in five aspects: First, the concept of "low carbon" will be implemented in all aspects of the planning, construction and operation of the Expo site. For example, the site of the World Expo Park is combined with the reconstruction of old cities on both sides of the Huangpu River, and 272 polluting enterprises have been closed down and relocated; more than 1 million square meters of parks and green areas have been built in the Park; and 1/6 of the old factories and buildings have been preserved and utilized. Secondly, "low-carbon" technologies and practices have been widely applied and centrally demonstrated in the Expo site. For example, the total installed capacity of solar photovoltaic power generation in the Expo site has reached about 4.7 MW, energy-saving and environmentally friendly LED light sources are commonly used for landscape lighting, more than 1,000 clean energy vehicles are put into use to realize "zero-emission" public ****transportation in the Expo site, and energy-saving, water-saving, and rainwater reuse technologies are widely used; as a special feature of the Expo, the Urban Best Practices Area showcases a wide range of "low-carbon" technologies and practices. As a major feature of the Expo, the Urban Best Practice Area showcases successful cases of low-carbon development and sustainable development selected from all over the world; the venues and displays of various countries, places and organizations are almost all themed or based on the key concepts of low-carbon environmental protection, sustainable development, and harmony between human beings and nature. Thirdly, a series of carbon offset projects have been arranged in an effort to implement carbon neutrality. These projects include accelerating public transportation priority, energy conservation and emission reduction, planting "Expo Carbon Sink Forests" and developing renewable energy. Fourthly, a participation platform has been set up for enterprises and visitors who are willing to voluntarily reduce emissions. For example, we have launched voluntary emission reduction activities such as "Green Travel", "Green Travel Transportation Card", "Low Carbon Calculator" and "One Tree for Everyone". Voluntary emission reduction activities such as "Green Travel", "Green Transportation Card", "Low Carbon Calculator" and "One Tree for Everyone" have already been launched, and other voluntary emission reduction channels and platforms are being designed to facilitate the participation of enterprises and visitors. Fifthly, we will strengthen the publicity and organization of activities on low-carbon environmental protection. During the Expo, many forums and activities will be themed on low-carbon environmental protection or will introduce low-carbon elements. One of the six theme forums of the Expo is "Environmental Change and Urban Responsibility", and we will continue to carry out activities such as the "Environmental Protection Knowledge Training for One Million Citizens Welcoming the Expo" and "Environmental Education for Primary and Secondary Schools" to create a better environment for the public. At the same time, we will continue to carry out the "Expo million citizens environmental protection knowledge training" and primary and secondary schools environmental education activities, to create a good environmental protection atmosphere in the community.
Three, the next stage of the work of the organization
The World Expo Park has been fully opened to welcome visitors. During the Expo, Shanghai will focus on "consolidate, improve" the work of the idea, and further improve the Expo environmental protection work. First, in accordance with the requirements of the full prevention and control to ensure environmental safety of the World Expo, further implementation of environmental safety control measures, improve the environmental emergency response system, while strengthening the prevention to ensure that emergency response teams and equipment at any time in the state of emergency standby. Second, in accordance with the "Eleventh Five-Year" pollution reduction program and the fourth round of environmental protection three-year action plan tasks, to further reduce the total amount of pollution emissions, continue to steadily promote the water, gas, solid waste, industry, agriculture, greening, natural ecology and other key areas of environmental protection and construction, improve the long-term management mechanism, consolidate the effectiveness of the previous remediation, and further improve the urban ecological environment. The city's ecological environment will be further improved. Thirdly, we will strengthen the supervision and management of environmental quality monitoring and operation of environmental protection facilities in the Expo Park, provide timely information on environmental quality in the Park, and create a favorable environment in the Park. Fourthly, through multiple ways, multiple carriers and multiple forms of activities, to better create a favorable atmosphere of low-carbon and green Expo in the whole society. Zhang Quan said, I believe that the World Expo will be "successful, wonderful, unforgettable", Shanghai's urban environment will be better, and I hope that the World Expo organizers, exhibitors, Shanghai citizens and domestic and foreign visitors, we work together, *** with the participation of energy saving and emission reduction, *** with the practice of "low-carbon World Expo! "We also hope that the organizers of the Expo, exhibitors, Shanghai citizens and visitors from home and abroad will work together to participate in energy saving and emission reduction, and practice low-carbon Expo, to ensure the success of the Expo in a safe and orderly manner, to add excitement to the Expo in a clean and beautiful way, and to make the Expo more memorable in a green and low-carbon way. The Expo will be more unforgettable with "green and low-carbon"!
The 2010 World Expo will be held in Shanghai, and its proposition, "Better City, Better Life," signals that Shanghai and other cities will utilize and transform the natural environment to create a highly artificial living environment for the benefit of all urban residents.
The 21st century is a green century. The theme of the World Expo held in Aichi, Japan, was "The Wisdom of Nature". From this point we can see that people are increasingly concerned about nature and ecology. Twenty-first century dominant housing is a green home, twenty-first century dominant food is green food, twenty-first century dominant environment is a green environment. Green is also the eternal theme of mankind. Greening is an important part of the embodiment of green.
Greening, the word for us is not strange. As we all know, greening can beautify the environment, release oxygen, attenuate noise, lower the temperature, block sand, improve the environment. Not only that, greening can also reduce the fear and anger of human beings to promote a positive psychological response. It can be said that greening is an indispensable part of life.
Shanghai, where the 2010 World Expo will be held, has made greening a key part of its urban planning. With the World Expo bidding work into the countdown, the dial on the minutes and seconds are restless pointer ruffled all the people concerned about the World Expo heartstrings, especially with the World Expo project related to the Shanghai Municipal Administration of Greening staff, after all, 400 hectares of bidding on the site of the meeting, 60% -80% will be green space. Greening is very important for building the city for the 2010 World Expo, improving people's quality of life, and driving economic growth.
First of all, the greening of the city of Shanghai has a role to play in promoting the construction of the city. It is understood that the 2010 World Expo will have a number of perpendicular to the Huangpu River green plant corridors, the green belt from the riverfront area to extend to the city hinterland, as if the modern city and the nature of the connection between the links; in the full of greenery under the backdrop of a four to five hundred meters long, dedicated to the tourists wandering sightseeing flower bridge will be across both sides of the river, become the link between the past, the present and the future of the iconic building. After the Expo, the expo space will be adapted to the urban form of the area, integrating it into downtown Shanghai. The green corridors and canals will be preserved. The Flower Bridge across the Huangpu River will also be preserved, leading strolling visitors to a new city park that will become another iconic feature of Shanghai as part of the cityscape after the fair.
Secondly, greening improves people's quality of life. On Feb. 2, 2004, Shanghai was officially awarded the title of "National Garden City," and the city has set the goal of building a forested city. In 1990, Shanghai was still in the stage of debt repayment; but in 2004, Shanghai built 1,800 hectares of new green space throughout the year, with the green coverage rate reaching 36%, and the per capita public **** green space in urban areas reaching 10 square meters. Basic elimination of greening within the inner ring line 500 meters service radius blind area, the construction of a large number of large-scale public **** green space; due to the 2010 World Expo construction of urban green space will be more. In the construction of green space not only highlights the ecological function, pay more attention to the comprehensive service function of green space and urban landscape function. With this development momentum, by 2010, Shanghai to reach the goal is within reach.
Not only that, but greening also leads to economic growth. As a result of the 2010 World Expo, Shanghai's housing prices will increase. Real estate investment data show that the most direct beneficiaries of green space is the real estate developers: by the government to invest in the construction of parks and green space is always "Zephyr" around --- parks near the prices of almost no not "grass grows high". In recent years, the price of buildings near the park rose by at least 1,000 yuan per square meter, and the average number of units sold near the green space will be much higher than that away from the green space.
The lack of green homes is a lack of peace and quiet. Without the green grass, there are only pieces of white pavement, in the strong sunlight with a blinding pallor ......
Water is the source of life, and green is the color of life. Only a city full of green is vibrant and dynamic ......
Green, is the eternal concept of mankind
Green, is a symbol of civilization.
Green, it shows the inspiration and charm of nature.
Let's take action from now on to make the city more green and add a vitality.
