Fukushima Nuclear Power Station Clears Up Sewage Problems

To achieve the ultimate control of the environment, it is still necessary to focus on the changes in the mode of economic development. Saying goodbye to the “high-energy, high-emission” “two-high” economy, it is the long-term plan to build a modern eco-environmental industrial system that meets the basic national policy for energy conservation and emission reduction.

Recently, many Beijing residents once again turned their attention to the long-lost blue sky. How to keep the blue sky going, Zhang Dawei, director of the Beijing Municipal Environmental Monitoring Center, said that this time it mainly depends on human efforts. To maintain this status, reduction of emissions is the hard truth.

When people were still excited about the blue sky in Beijing, haze attacked Shanghai. Shanghai Air fell into “severe pollution” on the 12th. The Shanghai Municipal Bureau of Meteorology issued a hazy yellow warning at 8:48 on the morning of the 12th. As of 10:00 am, Shanghai’s air quality index was 271, which caused severe pollution. Heavy smog issued a warning in Shanghai: Under the same sky, if we do not effectively manage air pollution and completely reverse the current grim situation, it is very difficult to make blue sky and white clouds a “new normal”.

Looking at Beijing’s iron fist governance can get a lot of useful insights. First, as long as you are willing to act, you must make a difference. From the premise of "man wins the heavens," the emphasis on the absolute role of man in the transformation of nature was later met with criticism. Today, it seems that there is still a certain degree of rationality. Doesn't "by people's efforts" mean "man wins the heavens?" It shows that as long as we are willing to work hard and take targeted measures, air pollution can be managed and controlled. In turn, it can be said that the haze is not under control, that is, people do not work hard.

Second, smog is indiscriminately discharged, and emission reduction is the last resort. At this time, more than 2,000 enterprises in Hebei Province temporarily suspended production, more than 1,900 companies restricted production, and more than 1,700 sites were suspended. A large number of polluting enterprises stop production and limit production. The air is new and the sky is blue. There is nothing more to explain the problem than this cause and effect. Third, in the same day, fog and haze need to be treated together. To protect the blue sky, six provinces including Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Shanxi, Shandong and Inner Mongolia all joined the protection team. In order to expand the concept of thinking, in order to protect the "China Blue," it is necessary to "combat the whole country" and work together to jointly manage the situation.

Environmental pollution control - especially as the haze becomes heavier and heavier, air pollution control has become a major public topic in society. People have come to an attribution from different perspectives and scored different conclusions. From economic development methods to legal supply, from environmental protection systems to law enforcement, and so forth. According to law enforcement only, the environmental protection department is subject to local government and it is difficult to achieve independent law enforcement without administrative interference, which has caused repeated criticism.

In the final analysis, this is a dilemma between environmental protection and economic development. There is a consensus in the academic community that Kuznets is an inverted U-shaped curve, the abscissa is the process of economic prosperity, and the ordinate is the degree of pollution. In the early stages of development, environmental pollution levels increased with economic growth; economic development reached a plateau (per capita GDP ranged from $8,000 to $15,000), and environmental pollution peaked; then, as the economy developed to a certain degree, it followed economic development. The transformation of methods and environmental governance efforts have increased, and the environmental conditions have improved.

According to this theory, China's environmental pollution situation should be in the latter part of the rise, and the future may go down the inverted U-shaped line. However, theory is a theory after all. It is not spontaneous expansion of the order. Ultimately, environmental control has to rely on human efforts. In the treatment of environmental pollution, including the atmosphere, it is imperative to reduce emissions by using iron fists, use strict laws and regulations, and adopt hardest administrative measures to order rectification by polluting companies, restrict pollution companies from launching, and increase investment in pollution control so as to ensure that environmental governance is available. Use new technologies; form an effective linkage mechanism to avoid the inefficiency and repetition of local self-administration.

To achieve the ultimate control of the environment, it is still necessary to focus on the changes in the mode of economic development. Saying goodbye to the “high-energy, high-emission” “two-high” economy, it is the long-term plan to build a modern eco-environmental industrial system that meets the basic national policy for energy conservation and emission reduction. The process of transformation will inevitably lead to pain, sometimes even "shock," which requires strength and wisdom.
