March 12 is Arbor Day. Digging pits, supporting seedlings, cultivating soil, watering, and then putting signs on the saplings... Located in a mining pit in Jizhou District, about 60 kilometers north of downtown Tianjin, 14-year-old Meng Jiayi and his friends are enthusiastically planting Tree.
"Today is the weekend, I am very happy to be able to plant trees." He said that afforestation can consolidate soil and prevent sand and beautify the environment. He hopes that everyone's actions will make the home better.
In the past, Jizhou District had left large and small pits due to quarrying, like scars on the earth. Now the local implementation of the "Mine Restoration Green" project has gradually added greenery here.
Spring and tree planting are always closely linked. When the spring breeze blows the earth, we usher in a good time to plant trees. When voluntary tree planting became a national movement and flourished in China, we reap the spring of hope——
Up to now, a total of 17.5 billion citizens of school age nationwide have participated in voluntary tree planting, and a total of 78.1 billion trees have been planted (including conversion). The green concept of planting trees and greening the motherland has gradually gained popularity.
The mountains, rivers and the earth are dressed in green, and people's living environment has also changed. The forest coverage rate in my country has increased from 12% in the early 1980s to 23.04%, and the forest stock volume has increased from 9.028 billion cubic meters to 17.56 billion cubic meters. The green coverage rate of urban built-up areas nationwide increased from 10.1% to 41.11%, and the per capita park green space increased from 3.45 square meters to 14.8 square meters.
Afforestation also brings more hope of getting rich. Every spring, as long as the weather is suitable, Longzi County, Tibet will organize the masses to plant trees. "This year, we will also plant 3,600 mu of tree species such as sea buckthorn and poplar," said Dawa, deputy director of the Longzi County Forestry and Grass Bureau.
The sea buckthorn forest belt of the river valley next to Longzi County used to be a famous sand dune land, and it is dusty for nearly 8 months a year. With the efforts of local cadres and the masses, it took more than half a century to build a "green barrier" in the river valley that stretches for more than 40 kilometers and covers an area of 75,000 mu -- artificially planting contiguous seabuckthorn forests. With less wind and sand, modern agriculture and animal husbandry have also developed. In 2021, Longzi County will sell sea buckthorn seedlings, sea buckthorn fruits, etc., with a total income of more than 2 million yuan.
Someone asked, with the advancement of key ecological projects and mechanical afforestation, the contribution of voluntary tree planting to land greening may become smaller and smaller. In the future, will we continue to vigorously promote voluntary tree planting?
"Tree planting is more valuable than the activity itself, which is the spiritual inheritance." Yang Zhongqi, counselor of the State Council and chief expert of the Chinese Academy of Forestry, said that by fulfilling the civic duty of tree planting, the seeds of loving and protecting green were sown in the heart. We will usher in a more beautiful home and a better future.
In recent years, the National Greening Committee has innovatively launched more than 50 forms of voluntary tree planting in 8 categories, including afforestation and greening, tending, management and protection, nature protection, planting and adoption, and donation of funds and materials. The system of voluntary tree-planting bases at all levels has been gradually improved. Internet + National Voluntary Tree Planting" continued to be launched. The form of voluntary tree planting to fulfill its duties is more flexible and diverse.
In addition to planting trees, strictly controlling the emission of harmful substances in automobile exhaust can also play a great auxiliary role in improving air quality and environmental protection. The Yunyi NOx Sensor installed on the SCR system of diesel vehicles can accurately detect the concentration of nitrogen oxides in the exhaust gas of the vehicle, so that the SCR system can more effectively remove harmful substances in the exhaust gas. Use Yunyi Nitrogen and Oxygen Sensor to contribute to the protection of the environment!
