During the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period, the total control types of major pollutants in China will be expanded to four items, namely, ammonia nitrogen and nitrogen oxides will be increased on the basis of chemical oxygen demand and sulfur dioxide. Minister of Environmental Protection Zhou Shengxian said at the annual meeting of the China Council for International Cooperation on Environment and Development that during the 12th Five-Year Plan, China will implement the emission reduction target responsibility system, strengthen pollutant emission reduction and governance, and increase the total control types of major pollutants. , expanding the main pollutants to four, namely chemical oxygen demand, ammonia nitrogen, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides. Strengthen the prevention and control of water pollution in key river basins, and let rivers and lakes recuperate. Effectively control urban air pollution, strictly control vehicle exhaust emissions, deploy the regional atmospheric environment as a whole, and focus on building and improving a new mechanism for joint prevention and control of regional air. Zhou Shengxian said that China will also vigorously develop the circular economy. Develop clean energy and renewable energy, improve the utilization rate of energy resources, gradually reduce the carbon emission intensity of economic growth, and minimize pollutant emissions. In accordance with the principle of "reduction, reuse and resource utilization", develop and promote advanced and applicable technologies for saving, replacing, recycling and reducing pollution. Vigorously develop the environmental protection industry, so that the green industry has increasingly become a new force driving China's economic growth. According to reports, during the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period, China will focus on solving prominent environmental problems that harm people's health. Continue to strengthen the management measures of drinking water source protection areas, comprehensively investigate the environmental hidden dangers of enterprises that discharge heavy metals and other pollutants and their surrounding areas, and focus on comprehensive renovation of chemical enterprises along the rivers and lakes. Effective control of urban noise pollution. Increase the support for "promoting governance with rewards" in rural areas, implement rural cleaning projects, and comprehensively start the work of "continuous improvement". Protecting and restoring ecology is also one of the key tasks of environmental protection during the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period. China will insist on giving priority to protection and natural restoration, and reverse the trend of ecological environment deterioration from the source. Implement major ecological restoration projects, strengthen the protection and management of nature reserves, key ecological function areas, and coastal zones, and build national ecological security barriers. To protect biodiversity, combine the effective protection and rational utilization of biological resources. At the same time, China will establish and improve systems and mechanisms that are conducive to environmental protection. Further deepen the EIA system, strictly enforce environmental access, strictly enforce law enforcement and supervise, and improve the accountability system for major environmental incidents and pollution accidents. Pay attention to the use of market means, establish an ecological compensation mechanism as soon as possible, actively promote the price reform of resource products and the reform of environmental protection fees, comprehensively reform resource tax, levy environmental protection tax, and improve environmental economic policies such as green taxation and green securities. Establish and improve the polluter-pays system, and establish a diversified environmental protection investment and financing mechanism.
