environment, conserving resources and coordinated co-existence should be advocated in a universal, regular and permanent manner. The moral standard and institutional incentive system for ecological equity and justice shall be established across
the society and observed and supervised by all. We must take advantage of the
market mechanism and perfect a long-term mechanism aimed at minimal resource
consumption and maximal benefit and service. No one has the right to occupy more
resources than others, and everyone can find its right place and exert its full potential,
thus integrating equity, efficiency and justice. We will carry out a series of ecological civilization activities to urge the people to actively participate in ecological
progress and environmental protection. Various social groups and organizations will
be brought into full play to foster the production mode, lifestyle and consumption
mode conducive to resource conservation and environmental protection.
Ecological progress is a systematic undertaking directly concerning national
welfare, people’s livelihood and socioeconomic development. It needs not only the
close attention, firm leadership and effective guidance from the CPC and governments at all levels, but also the close coordination of all sectors and the concerted
efforts of the whole society. As Chinese economy keeps developing at a fast pace
and people are living a better life, they have high demands on production safety, food
safety, water security and environmental quality. To resolve or mitigate resource and
environmental issues, not only should the management be more professional in such
sectors as water conservancy, forestry, agriculture, industry, environmental protection and land, but social management should be enhanced too. Sector management
should focus on the normal state and be law-based, unified and scientific. Social
management, on the other hand, should focus on the crisis state of special, emergency and serious conditions, and the ability and level of it should be reinforced in
various ways.

Progress
On March 5, 2019, General Secretary Xi Jinxing generalized for the first time the
“four ones” about ecological progress when participating in the discussions of the
Inner Mongolia delegation. To be specific, ecological progress is one aspect of the
Five-Sphere Integrated Plan; adhering to harmonious co-existence between man and
nature is one basic policy of upholding and developing socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era; green development is one of the new development concepts;
and pollution prevention and control is one of the three tough battles. This generalization has enriched the Xi Jinping Thought on Ecological Civilization and is a basic
principle and action guide for ecological civilization development in China.
