How to cherish the earth's resources in life
Let's start with water resources. The total amount of water resources in China is about 2.8 trillion cubic meters, ranking sixth in the world. The per capita water consumption is more than 2 100 cubic meters, accounting for only a quarter of the world's per capita level. It is a country short of water, and more than 400 cities in China are short of water. In particular, the water shortage in the western region is very serious, and it is very difficult for people and animals in some mountainous areas to drink water.
Water use in China is facing a serious problem, so we should cherish water resources and save water. For example, after running out of water, tighten the faucet to avoid the waste phenomenon of "one river of clear water flows eastward" If the faucet is found to be broken, it should be repaired in time to avoid a lot of water loss. Don't underestimate the discarded batteries, because a button cell will pollute 600 tons of water. If it is thrown into the water, the water can't be drunk. We should collect the batteries and send them to the recycling station, which can not only avoid polluting the water source, but also recycle the batteries, killing two birds with one stone. You can't just talk without practice, you have to act!
Save not only water, but also forest resources. The total amount of forest resources in China is insufficient, and the forest coverage rate is only 18.25438+0%, which is equivalent to the world average forest coverage rate of 6 1.52%. China's per capita forest area and per capita forest stock are less than one quarter and one sixth of the world average respectively. The forest quality is not high, and the average volume per hectare is only 84.73 cubic meters, which is equivalent to 84.86% of the world average.
This is the warning of forest resources to us! We should use forest resources sparingly. First of all, don't throw manuscript paper around, don't fold small crafts such as airplanes with unwritten paper, and don't cut down and trample flowers and trees at will. We should plant trees and care for them. Don't use disposable things, such as paper cups and wood blocks. At school, we should set up a "green bank" to collect discarded scraps of paper and handkerchiefs. When eating out, bring your own spoon and chopsticks. Students, let's act together to save and use our limited forest resources.
Electricity is indispensable everywhere. Electricity has brought us various conveniences, but we should save electricity, because almost all electricity is generated by burning standard coal, and the coal stored in China is only enough for mining 100 years! Think about it, 100 years later, what will our descendants do? Therefore, we should save electricity. First of all, start from yourself and remember that "people turn on the lights and people turn off the lights". In midsummer, when turning on the air conditioner, don't adjust the temperature too low, just adjust it appropriately. Usually lighting, use energy-saving lamps as much as possible, because ordinary light bulbs convert a lot of electric energy into heat energy, only a small part into light, and energy-saving lamps almost convert electric energy into light.
"Cherish resources and advocate economy" is the obligation of every citizen. For our better tomorrow, please act quickly!
"Looking forward to, looking forward to, the east wind is coming, and the pace of spring is near ..."
Mother Earth has brought us one beautiful spring after another. On April 22nd, when the 37th "Earth Day" came to us with the footsteps of spring, we couldn't help thinking about how to treat Mother Earth well and how to cherish the spring scenery in Wan Li given to us by Mother Earth.
Be kind to the earth-cherish resources and sustainable development are the themes of this spring.
However, the current situation of protection, utilization and sustainable utilization of land resources and mineral resources in China is not optimistic. We have to ask: is the spring of the earth forever?
Although we implement the strictest land management system in the world, in some places, the phenomenon of indiscriminate occupation and use of agricultural land and basic farmland still occurs from time to time; Our large and small cities, this "pie" paved with reinforced concrete, are still expanding in all directions, devouring the surrounding cultivated land. ...
Although the supply of mineral resources has become the bottleneck of rapid economic development, in some places, unlicensed small mines marked by waste and destruction of resources are still being exploited and dug indiscriminately; Even large mines continue the extensive mining method of "eating half and throwing half"; Littering tailings not only makes the mineral resources that can be used originally abandoned, but also may form debris flow in rainy season, which becomes the killer of destroying fields, crops and people's lives and property; Ground subsidence and ground fissures in mined-out areas not only make farmers lose the land resources they depend on for survival, but also threaten their life safety. We are the country with the most water shortage in the world, but the water for production and life is still squandered at will, and the precious groundwater is overexploited or polluted; Our energy is already in short supply, but the extensive heating of new houses like mushrooms after rain is still wasting oil and coal resources. ...
Today, the supply and demand of land and mineral resources are in full swing, so we must change the current situation of extensive utilization, low efficiency and serious waste of land resources. The CPC Central Committee and the State Council attach great importance to the economical and intensive utilization of land and resources, which requires us to accurately grasp the stage characteristics of China's development with a high sense of historical responsibility, a strong sense of hardship and a broad world vision, base on scientific development, pay attention to independent innovation, accelerate the transformation of economic growth mode, take resource conservation as a basic national policy, develop circular economy, protect the ecological environment, accelerate the construction of a resource-saving and environment-friendly society, and promote the coordination of economic development with population, resources and environment.
In order to build a conservation-oriented society, during the Eleventh Five-Year Plan period, the state has set several binding hard targets that must be achieved: the number of cultivated land will remain at 65.438+0.2 billion hectares, the energy consumption per unit GDP will be reduced by about 20%, the water consumption per unit industrial added value will be reduced by 30%, the effective utilization coefficient of agricultural irrigation water will be increased to 0.5, and the comprehensive utilization rate of industrial solid waste will be increased to 60% (expected). Now, governments and enterprises at all levels are working hard to achieve these goals, and every citizen of us should work hard to achieve these goals. Resource shortage and energy crisis are around us, and "electricity shortage", "oil shortage", "coal shortage" and "water shortage" are bothering us all the time. Cherish you, me and his resources. Only with the concerted efforts of the whole society, Qi Xin can get rid of the rapidly developing resource dilemma and move towards a resource-saving and environment-friendly society.
It is everyone's responsibility to cherish, protect and save resources. Let's start from now on, from me, from dribs and drabs, cherish all the natural resources that Mother Earth has given us, and make our home spring bright every year. ...

Yunnan has rectified the development of mineral resources and initially curbed the spread of the "six chaos"
A few days ago, the reporter learned from the Yunnan Provincial Department of Land and Resources that the work of rectifying and standardizing the order of mineral resources development initiated in the whole province since September last year has achieved practical results, initially curbing the spread of indiscriminate occupation, indiscriminate mining, indiscriminate selling, indiscriminate approval, indiscriminate collection and disorderly management.
According to reports, through the comprehensive investigation and punishment of illegal mining activities, the province has cleared 2,240 illegal mining activities without a license, including 1 10, ordered 588 enterprises to stop production for rectification, banned 2,545 illegal mining sites, recovered the compensation fee for mineral resources of1/8000 yuan, and imposed a fine of 2.78 million yuan. Eighty-nine mining licenses were cancelled and revoked, and administrative punishment was given to 16 1 person, and 67 people were investigated for criminal responsibility, which severely cracked down on illegal mining activities such as indiscriminate mining, environmental damage and unlicensed mining. Through comprehensive verification of licenses, the province has now established 2,824 effective exploration rights with a total registered area of 65,000 square kilometers, accounting for 16.5% of the province's land area. By organizing joint law enforcement, the state, city and county governments conducted a preliminary investigation on the behaviors of favoritism, dereliction of duty, public officials' participation or disguised participation in running mines in the development and management of mineral resources. At this point, * * * has found out that 4 1 person is suspected of participating in mining and participating in dividends. In view of the phenomenon of "virtual fever" in mineral exploration last year, the relevant parties organized forces to conduct centralized screening treatment according to the "six principles" and "ten prohibitions", and nearly 1,000 certificates have been handled so far.
WWF: China's resource consumption has doubled in 40 years.
On the morning of April 19, the World Wide Fund for Nature (WFF) released the report on the ecological footprint and natural wealth of the Asia-Pacific region in 2005. The report shows that the people in the Asia-Pacific region consume resources almost twice as fast as the natural resources in the region are restored. From 196 1 to 200 1, the per capita ecological footprint of China almost doubled. This means that the resources consumed by China have doubled in 40 years. The publisher of the report said that, despite this, China's national ecological footprint is relatively stable.
Why save today?
I don't know when it started. We are used to the bright lights in the office in broad daylight, the air conditioner in the living room, the running water when washing dishes, the waste paper next to the copier ... and the extravagance behind all these conveniences and comforts.
Therefore, when the State Council proposed to carry out resource conservation activities nationwide in 2004-2006, some people felt "unaccustomed" when the word "conservation" was repeated in our ears for a long time.
Some people say that savings are the product of the era of natural economy with low productivity. Is it inappropriate to talk about saving again under the condition of material-rich market economy? Some people say that consumption is a tractor for production and an indispensable wheel for modern trains. Is it old-fashioned to advocate the transition to a conservation-oriented society?
Today, why should we save?
Uncontrolled waste of resources shakes the foundation of survival.
Economy and waste are relative. Today we talk about saving again, because the waste around us is shaking the foundation on which we live.
We are one of the countries with the most water shortage in the world, and the average water resource per capita is insufficient 1/4600. More than 400 cities are short of water, but do we cherish water?
Agriculture is a big water user and a great waste of water resources. In China, the agricultural irrigation mode of "soil canal water conveyance plus flood irrigation" is still widely used. Half of the irrigation water leaks during the water conveyance process, and the utilization rate is only about 40%, which is less than half of that of developed countries.
Due to the backward technology of existing water facilities, the current water consumption per 10,000 yuan of industrial output value in China is 103 cubic meters, 8 cubic meters in the United States and only 6 cubic meters in Japan. The reuse rate of our industrial water is only about 55%, while the average level in developed countries is 75%-85%.
People waste water resources in their lives by fair means. Experiments show that if the faucet leaks a drop of water every second, it will lose 360 tons of water a year. However, the leakage of water distribution network and water appliances in most cities in China is as high as more than 20%, and the leakage of water tanks in urban toilets alone will cost hundreds of millions of cubic meters every year. China wastes more than 654.38 billion cubic meters of water resources every year. The water consumption for car washing in Beijing in just one year is equivalent to the water storage capacity of one Duokunming Lake or six Beihai Seas.
Our per capita arable land area is less than 2/5 of the world average, and we need less than110 of the world arable land to feed 1/4 of the world population. However, the "enclosure movement" of various names has drastically reduced our cultivated land. Just a small solid clay brick can destroy 8-65,438 mu of fertile land in a year, and the brick factory alone occupies 4 million mu of land.
In the process of massive use and unprovoked waste, energy has also entered the era of shortage. The per capita reserves of important mineral resources such as oil, natural gas, copper and aluminum are the lowest, accounting for only 1/25 of the world average. At present, China consumes nearly 40% more energy and mineral resources per 10,000 yuan of industrial output than developed countries. Apart from the backward technology, man-made waste is a big loophole.
Neither the Asian financial crisis nor the sudden SARS disaster has stopped the rapid development of China's economy. However, since the energy shortage and the overall increase in raw material prices that swept across the country last year, people have increasingly felt that China's economy is being constrained by resources. For a big developing country like us, the shortage of important resources is bound to be controlled by people. At the critical moment, resources are not necessarily bought with money.
The imminent resource crisis has sounded the natural alarm.
Sitting on the high-speed economic train, facing the increasingly rich material life, we often have a sense of satisfaction: the days of lack of money have passed, and life is getting richer and richer.
But when we know that today's rich life depends on the excessive consumption of resources, and today's development depends on the survival rights of future generations, can we still live so freely?
"I thought you were infinitely vast and didn't care about losing a shadow. I thought you had infinite treasure and didn't care about taking a little peace. I thought you were strong, but your tears are flowing. I thought you had boundless maternal love, but you gradually lost your strength. "
The scarcity of existing resources and the demand and pressure of future development, let us listen to the warning of nature. After encountering "coal shortage", "electricity shortage" and "oil shortage" in succession, Chinese people tasted the bitterness of resource shortage for the first time. In the impatience of queuing to buy candles, in the sudden panic of falling into darkness, the alarm bell has actually sounded!
After decades of investigation, geologists have confirmed that China has become a "resource-weak country" because of its huge population base and rapid economic development. After 50 years, almost all mineral resources except coal in China will be in serious shortage, and about 50% of them will be exhausted. People of insight warned that 20 10 China will enter an era of severe water shortage, and our future generations will pay a heavy price for our profligacy today.
This is a very dangerous signal. Lack of resources will be the biggest difficulty that restricts the rapid development of China's economy, and it will also be the biggest hidden danger that harms our better life.
In fact, under the wheel of development, how to deal with the challenge of resource shortage has become a worldwide topic. In all countries of the world, conservation has become a trend, and the awareness of resource conservation and protection in many countries has been integrated into every detail of life.
These countries are much richer than us, but we are ashamed of their careful use of resources.
The United States is a country rich in resources, and its national consumption level ranks first in the world. However, American students' textbooks are reused. A textbook needs at least eight students, with an average service life of five years. The service life of textbooks in China is only half a year! There are 220 million primary and secondary school students in China. At present, if a textbook can be used continuously for five years, after deducting the cost, the cost saved is considerable! And how many forests will be spared in the process of recycling textbooks!
Our neighbor Koreans saved their teeth. Because they cherish resources, they have developed food toothpicks with potato starch or rice flour as raw materials. Disposable tablecloths for restaurants and disposable toiletries for hotels have long since disappeared in Korea.
Disposable chopsticks were originally invented by the Japanese. Japan's forest coverage rate is as high as 65%, but they are forbidden to cut down trees on their own land to make disposable chopsticks. The wooden chopsticks they used were all imported from China, and then processed into pulp and exported to China for foreign exchange.
Hewlett-Packard is a world-famous big company with strong strength and deep pockets, but they have set up "spare boxes" and "recycling boxes" in their offices. All the paper that has been used on one side is put into the spare box, others can reuse the back of the paper, and the paper that has been used on both sides is put into the recycling box for recycling. In any Epson company in the world, all double-sided printing paper is used to paste various reimbursement documents after it is used up.
Behind these seemingly trivial behaviors is an increasingly recognized knowledge: no matter how rich you are, you have no right to waste resources.
Saving resources depends on everyone's actions.
Accumulate a feather and sink a boat. In our developing country with a population of1300 million, if everyone does not pay attention to saving resources, then our resource reserves will not be able to carry the ship developed by the Chinese nation;
If China, with a population of 654.38+0.3 billion, really practices economy and opposes waste, the strength it gathers will not only be the support for our country to move towards the future, but also a gift from our nation to the earth and mankind.
Don't do it with little evil, and don't do it with little good. Everyone can stop wasting things in life and bow down where they can be saved.
Turn off the faucet when washing soap in the shower, and you can save 60 liters of water in the shower; Brush your teeth with a glass of water, only 0.5 liter of water. If you leave the tap on for 5 minutes, you will waste 45 liters of water. The toilet uses water-saving appliances, which can save 4-5 liters of water each time; When washing vegetables, use a basin instead of turning on the tap. A meal can save 100 liter of water. ...
With a population of 654.380+0.3 billion, less than one pair of disposable wooden chopsticks are used, which means that thousands of acres of forests are protected from bad luck. Every family in China uses one less plastic bag every day, which can save a lot of oil consumption and reduce environmental pollution.
Recycling 1 ton waste paper can produce 800 kilograms of good paper, cut down less 17 trees, save 3 cubic meters of landfill space, save more than half of papermaking energy and reduce 35% of water pollution.
If energy-saving light sources are adopted, our lighting power consumption will be reduced by 60%, and 74 billion kWh of electricity can be saved a year, which is equivalent to saving 29.89 million tons of standard coal. If all the existing 65438+300 million refrigerators in China are replaced by energy-saving refrigerators, 4,365,438+32 million kWh of electricity can be saved every year, which is equivalent to the power generation of half the Three Gorges Hydropower Station. ...
It is no exaggeration to say that each of us holds precious "resources" and the power to stifle and seize the "lifeblood" of the development of these ethnic groups, and the harm to it and love lies in our actions.
In 1950s and 1960s, the Party and the government vigorously advocated the spirit of saving electricity, a drop of water, a drop of oil, a catty of coal and an inch of cloth. Now the economy has developed, the income has increased and the life is better, but the spirit of thrift is not out of date, but it has become more meaningful with the development of the times.
Since ancient times, the Chinese nation has always regarded thrift as a virtue worth promoting. Today, our 20-word civic moral program will also be written into the book of thrift.
Choosing frugality is not only to choose a lifestyle and pursue a spiritual quality, but also to build a road to the future.
Its name is sustainable development.
We need 654.38+300 million China people to work together and practice together.
