The Pressure of Green Transformation and Development

Abstract

China’s green development is undoubtedly an inevitable trend. China’s green development has, is and will continue to be under pressure from both domestic and international sources. In China, the biggest pressure is the strong constraint of natural resources, including water, land, energy and biological resources. Secondly, the strong constraint pressure of natural environment, including atmospheric environment, water environment and soil environment. There are also enormous pressures for ecosystem degradation, including biodiversity loss, soil erosion, shrinking wetlands and river discontinuity. From the international perspective, China is under the pressure of international environmental friction, international trade friction, international green barriers, China’s resources and environment threat, and internal pressure to improve China’s international image. From the subjective point of view, China as a whole has entered the development stage of upper middle income, with the growing middle class and the general improvement of people’s living standards. The yearning for a better life, including blue sky, green earth, clear water and beautiful scenery, is growing day by day. This will undoubtedly put pressure on the Chinese government to pursue green development, and it will also be a powerful driving force for green development. China’s green transformation and development is to recognize the pressure, change the enormous pressure into inexhaustible power and continue to effectively promote green development.
