Identify the key points for green, low-carbon, and high-quality development

Green, low-carbon, and high-quality development is a complex project and long-term task for the comprehensive transformation of the economy and society. The situation varies greatly in different regions, and it is necessary to start from their own reality and find different work priorities at different stages. In the practice of building a green, low-carbon, and high-quality development pilot zone in Shandong Province, Yantai, as a demonstration city, focuses on the "four major transformations" of energy, industry, city, and life, accelerating the formation of a green production and lifestyle, and promoting high-quality development to open up new prospects.

Energy transformation is the foundation of green, low-carbon, and high-quality development. The practice in Yantai has fully proved that as an important lever to ensure energy security and achieve the "dual carbon" goal, the green and low-carbon transformation of energy structure is not only conducive to providing a cleaner and safer environmental foundation, reducing pollution control costs, but also helps to promote the optimization and upgrading of industrial structure, and build a more stable and sustainable economic growth model. However, the transformation of energy structure is not achieved overnight, and the gradual withdrawal of traditional energy must be based on the safe and reliable replacement of new energy. Therefore, Yantai regards the construction of a clean, low-carbon, safe and efficient new energy system as an important measure, focusing on the multi energy complementarity and deep integration of traditional energy and new energy, and supporting green development through energy transformation.

Industrial transformation is the key to green, low-carbon, and high-quality development. Yantai is accelerating the process of industrial green transformation and upgrading, focusing on promoting the deep integration of industrial digitization, intelligence, and greening. We will make a "subtraction" at the entry checkpoint and resolutely curb the blind implementation of high energy consuming, high emission, and low-level projects. Traditional industries are not simply treated as low-end industries, but rather as a combination of new technologies, new concepts, and new advantages to achieve ecological and business optimization and upgrading of traditional industries. Emerging industries are doing 'multiplication' with the goal of cultivating new quality productivity, vigorously researching and developing new technologies, strengthening new industries, and nurturing new business models. By enhancing traditional industries, cultivating emerging industries, laying out future industries, coordinating and comprehensively upgrading, high-quality development can be achieved.

Urban transformation is the driving force for green, low-carbon, and high-quality development. Green is the foundation and essence of urban development, as well as an important manifestation of urban comprehensive competitiveness. Yantai is surrounded by mountains and seas, with beautiful scenery, and always regards the construction of a beautiful city as a top priority. Faced with the constraints of resource and environmental carrying capacity, Yantai adheres to the guidance of green and low-carbon, beautiful environment, livable ecology, safety and health, and smart and efficient development. It coordinates and optimizes various spatial layouts such as industry, agriculture, ecology, and urban areas, pragmatically responds to the people's demands for fresh air, beautiful environment, comfortable living, convenient transportation, etc., achieves coordinated and efficient reduction of pollution, carbon emissions, and green expansion, and promotes the connotation based intensive green development of urban construction.

The transformation of life is fundamental to green, low-carbon, and high-quality development. A good ecological environment is the most equitable public good and the most universal welfare for people's livelihoods. Yantai promotes green and low-carbon development to benefit the people, allowing them to share the beauty of nature, life, and living in a beautiful home. At the same time, we attach great importance to encouraging and guiding the masses to participate in the transformation of their way of life, and widely mobilize parks, communities, enterprises, schools, families, and individuals to take active action. By practicing the concept of simple and moderate, green and low-carbon, civilized and healthy living and consumption, we have formed a social atmosphere that advocates ecological civilization for everyone, everything, all the time, and everywhere.

At present, China's economic and social development has entered a stage of accelerating green and low-carbon high-quality development, and the construction of ecological civilization is still in a critical period of pressure accumulation and carrying heavy burdens. The continuous progress of promoting green, low-carbon and high-quality development, although the development foundations and resource endowments vary in different regions, the idea of understanding the regional situation and finding the focus is consistent. As long as we conscientiously implement the decision and deployment of the Party Central Committee on promoting green, low-carbon and high-quality development, identify the focus points based on the actual situation in various regions, work hard and achieve long-term results, we will definitely be able to achieve high-level protection and high-quality development.
