The 19th National Press Center held a press conference and invited Yang Weimin, deputy director of the Central Financial and Economic Leading Group Office, and Li Ganjie, party secretary and minister of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, to introduce the concept of green development, build a beautiful China, and answer questions from reporters.
Wall Street Journal reporter:
I would like to ask the two ministers, regarding the goal of improving the ecological environment and maintaining the steady economic growth, will there be some contradictions between these two goals? How does the government consider dealing with the contradiction between these two goals? We noticed that some factories have closed down due to environmental protection reasons. Now we stop production. We would like to ask if the shutdown of the factory will lead to an increase in unemployment rate due to environmental protection reasons. Thank you.
Li Ganjie, Party Secretary and Minister of the Ministry of Environmental Protection:
Let me answer this question first. At the press conference the day before yesterday, I noticed that a reporter from the media raised a similar question to Director Zhang Yong of the National Development and Reform Commission. Will strengthening environmental protection affect GDP and affect development? I see Director Zhang Yong answering very well. You have to say that there is no local or microscopic impact on the enterprise. It is impossible. However, in the long run, from a macro perspective, from the overall situation, there is no impact. Strengthening environmental protection, promoting green development, and strengthening the construction of ecological civilization are positively related to the development of the economy.
General Secretary Xi Jinping said, including reaffirming and re-emphasizing in this report of the 19th National Congress that the concept of green mountains and green mountains must be established and practiced. The general secretary also said that protecting the ecological environment means protecting productivity and improving the ecological environment. It is to develop productivity. I think this is a scientific assertion based on profound rational analysis and sufficient and countless successful practice cases. Many successful cases abroad are also available in China. Because time is limited, I will not enumerate here, so I will not start. .
Since the 18th National Congress, especially in the past two years, we have carried out central environmental supervision inspectors, or we are currently carrying out special environmental law enforcement actions in some key areas. Environmental protection has not affected economic development. As you can see, the economic development momentum of our country in the past two years is very good. All indicators, including GDP, finances and foreign trade, are very gratifying.
In the process of central environmental protection inspectors, we have also closely tracked the economic data of these areas. We found that the provinces that carry out the central environmental protection inspectors have not affected any of their economic indicators. In a sense, they are still more than in the past. It’s better.
It also includes some of the employment issues you mentioned. You may also know that the unemployment rate in the survey of major cities in our country has dropped to the lowest level in recent years. If we strengthen environmental protection in these years, it will affect employment. I don’t think there will be any Such a number.
And here we have to report to you that in the process of promoting environmental protection and strengthening environmental protection, we actually emphasize that we must fight both the hard battle and the long-term war. The accumulation of problems is not a day or two. It is not a night to solve it. between. Therefore, in the process of implementation, we still pay great attention to strategies and methods. On the one hand, zero tolerance for some enterprises that violate laws and regulations and pollute the environment, and serious treatment according to the law; but on the other hand, in accordance with the principle of classification guidance, one factory and one policy, specific issues are specifically analyzed.
Some media reports some time ago said that we are doing "one size fits all". What I want to explain is that the so-called "one size fits all", which is indiscriminate and good or bad, is firmly opposed by us. It does not exist in general, even if it has happened in some places. We have all corrected it in the first place. Even for those companies that violate the law and regulations, it is also possible to rectify the time according to the circumstances, and it is not a stick to kill. Only those who did not have the value of survival, but also seriously polluted the environment, and did not have any hope of rectification, were finally shut down.
It is precisely because of such a strategy and method that I feel that our entire work has been supported by various aspects, including corporate support and local support. It is precisely because of this that environmental protection and economic growth have been in the past during this period of time. I believe that environmental protection is strengthening and environmental quality is improving. At the same time, our economic development has not been affected. I will answer these first, thank you.
