In a bid to step up ecological governance, the Chinese mainland has rolled out fresh regulations replacing the 2019 guidelines on eco-environmental protection inspections.
Issued by the Communist Party of China Central Committee and the State Council, these rules redefine inspections as a core tool for spotting environmental challenges and driving solutions.
The new framework pushes for high-quality development through robust environmental safeguards, deeper reforms in the ecological civilization system, and modernization of governance capabilities.
Inspectors will zero in on key areas such as pollution control progress, green transitioning of development models, ecological restoration, and progress toward carbon peaking and carbon neutrality.
This overhaul underscores the Chinese mainland's commitment to its flagship Beautiful China initiative, where safeguarding the environment is central to social and economic priorities.
With these updated rules, the Chinese mainland aims to strengthen its eco-inspection toolkit, paving the way for greener growth and a healthier future.
