Pollution Prevention and Control

A sound eco-environment is critical to China's development. It is a priority issue affecting people's wellbeing and essential to building a beautiful China.

At its 19th National Congress, the CPC announced its determination to fight pollution. In June 2018, the central authorities issued guidelines and made overall plans on environmental protection and pollution control. At its fifth plenary session in October 2020, the 19th CPC Central Committee reiterated the need to continue pollution control. In November 2021, the central authorities issued another document on the fight against pollution, establishing the principle of taking targeted measures and science-based approaches in accordance with the law. China will coordinate pollution control and environmental protection, respond to climate change, keep its skies blue, its waters clear and its lands pollution-free by applying higher standards, and promote high-quality development with high-standard protection for a better life.

China's steadfast fight against pollution displays the determination of the central leadership with Xi Jinping at the core as regards eco-environmental protection and conservation, and embodies the CPC's strategic resolution to build a beautiful China with harmony between humanity and nature. It also responds to the people's desire for a better life after attaining moderate prosperity.
