In recent years, Guangdong has made great efforts on green development. Ecological construction (生态建设) has achieved some great results. At an important meeting of CPC Guangdong Provincial Committee (中共广东省委) on December 8, 2022, an important decision on further promoting green ecological construction in Guangdong was made. The idea "Green and Beautify Guangdong"was put forward in the decision.
The whole society take actions to build a green and beautiful Guangdong. In 2023,more than 6,400 voluntary tree planting activities were held in Guangdong, and about 2.13million trees were planted. That all the people love green and protect green has become the new fashion.
Thanks to the great improvement of the ecological environment, 92 kinds of waterbirds were monitored in Guangdong. As national synchronous monitoring of wintering waterbirds (全国越冬水鸟同步监测) started and completed in January 2024, one of the precious (珍稀的) national first-class protected wild animals, the Chinese merganser duck, has been monitored three times in Nanshui Lake, Ruyuan, Shaoguan.
Ecological construction in Guangdong is of great meaning and importance to improve ecological environment, people's quality of life and sustainable (可持续) development.
