With the accelerated development of industrialization and urbanization, environmental pollution is becoming more and more serious, especially air quality. In order to improve the environmental quality, China has taken a series of measures to strengthen the prevention and control of air pollution.
First, increase investment and improve the level of science and technology.
In recent years, the government has continuously increased financial support for environmental protection for pollution source control and clean energy promotion, and also encouraged enterprises to develop new technologies by setting up special funds. In addition, a network of air quality monitoring stations has been established in various places to keep abreast of pollutant discharge and make corresponding adjustments. For example, Beijing launched the "Blue Sky Defence War", implemented coal-fired boiler renovation projects, and built new energy vehicle charging facilities. Shanghai has implemented a green building standard system, requiring new residential buildings to install solar hot water systems.
Two, strict supervision system, strengthen accountability.
For enterprises and individuals who violate laws and regulations, the relevant departments will punish them according to law, including but not limited to stopping production for rectification and revoking business licenses. At the same time, a sound credit evaluation mechanism will be established, and the environmental protection behavior of enterprises will be included in the social credit record to form an effective binding force. For example, the Law on the Prevention and Control of Air Pollution in People's Republic of China (PRC) stipulates that key pollutant discharge units should set up automatic monitoring equipment in accordance with relevant state regulations to ensure their normal operation and regularly publish relevant information to the public; The Notice on Further Improving the Comprehensive Management of Volatile Organic Compounds in Industrial Enterprises clearly points out that the behavior of excessive emission of VOCs must be resolutely investigated and dealt with, and accountability should be seriously pursued.
Third, advocate a low-carbon lifestyle and create a good ecological environment atmosphere
In addition to reducing pollutant emissions from the source, each of us should also actively participate in energy conservation and emission reduction activities, such as traveling by public transport, using energy-saving electrical products, participating in afforestation and so on. Government departments will also hold various publicity activities regularly to raise the environmental awareness of the whole people. For example, during the Sixth Five-Year Plan period in World Environment Day, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment and other departments jointly launched the theme practice activity of "Beautiful China, I am an actor", aiming at guiding the broad masses of people to practice a simple, moderate, civilized and healthy lifestyle.
In short, in the face of severe air pollution situation, we must adhere to the principle of putting prevention first and comprehensively use various means such as law, economy and technology to deal with it. Only with the joint efforts of the whole society can we realize the beautiful vision of sky blue and clear water.
