China's ongoing commitment to marine eco-environmental protection took center stage this Thursday as the State Council Information Office released a comprehensive white paper titled \"Marine Eco-Environmental Protection in China.\" The document outlines China's conservation efforts and significant achievements in safeguarding marine ecosystems.
Structured into seven key sections, the white paper delves into topics such as harmonious coexistence between humans and the ocean, systematic governance, science-based conservation, and the promotion of green and low-carbon maritime development. These initiatives are integral to China's broader goals of building a beautiful nation and strengthening its maritime capabilities.
Over the years, China has prioritized eco-environmental conservation, implementing systematic governance and coordinating development with protection. This approach ensures high-quality development while maintaining high-level protection, striving for a marine eco-environment where humans and the ocean thrive together.
The white paper highlights notable progress, with China's marine eco-environment improving overall and a marked increase in ecosystem services and functions in several sea areas. \"These achievements are a testament to the country's commitment to marine eco-environmental protection,\" the document states.
Moreover, China underscores its role as a responsible major country by actively promoting international cooperation in marine protection. By fulfilling its obligations under international conventions and contributing Chinese solutions to global marine governance, China demonstrates its dedication to preserving the world's oceanic resources for future generations.
