掀起造林绿化热潮 绘出美丽中国的更新画卷

新华社北京4月4日电 中共中央总书记、国家主席、中央军委主席习近平4日上午在参加首都义务植树活动时强调,人勤春来早,植绿正当时。每年这个时候,我国从南到北渐次掀起造林绿化的热潮。今天,我们一起参加植树,就是号召大家都行动起来,既在广袤祖国大地上种下片片绿色,也在广大人民心中播撒绿色种子,共同迎接希望的春天,共同建设美丽中国。

京郊大地,春雨飘飘,春意盎然。上午10时30分许,党和国家领导人习近平、李强、赵乐际、王沪宁、蔡奇、丁薛祥、李希、韩正等集体乘车,冒雨来到位于北京市朝阳区东坝中心公园的植树点,同首都群众一起参加义务植树。

植树点位于北小河和坝河交汇处的东坝中心公园内,面积约300亩。该地块原为东坝乡东风村所在地,经搬迁腾退和环境整治,正在规划构建以生物多样性为特色的生态空间。东坝中心公园内,参加义务植树的首都干部群众、少先队员正干得热火朝天。

看到总书记来了,大家纷纷向总书记问好。习近平披上雨衣,拿起铁锹走向植树地点,同北京市、国家林业和草原局负责同志一起参与到植树人群的行列。

铲土造坑、培土围堰、提水浇灌……习近平接连种下油松、西府海棠、国槐、柿树、红瑞木等树苗,现场一派繁忙景象,气氛热烈。习近平一边劳动,一边教孩子种树的方法,并与孩子们聊起学习生活情况,问他们家里父母多大年纪,在小学有没有安排生物课,对植物了解多少,现在作业多不多,课外辅导多不多,叮嘱他们从小要热爱劳动,做到德智体美劳全面发展。习近平强调,孩子教育,跟植树一样,一开始就要竖正,否则就会长歪。

植树后,在场的中小学生和干部群众围拢过来。习近平对大家说,我国人工造林规模世界第一,而且还在继续造林。地球绿化,改善全球气候变化,中国功不可没,中国人民功不可没。森林既是水库、钱库、粮库,也是碳库。植树造林是一件很有意义的事情,是一项功在当代、利在千秋的崇高事业,要一以贯之、持续做下去。

习近平回忆起参加植树造林的过程。他说,这是我担任党的总书记以来第十一次参加植树活动,算上到中央工作以来参加的次数,已经十六次了,而且在福建、浙江、上海工作期间我都参加了植树活动。他对在场的中小学生们说,等你们也成了父母辈了,也要让你们的子女子孙继续植树,一代一代做下去,美丽中国就是这么建设出来的。

习近平对大家说,我是在北京长大的,我的乡愁很多都与树有关。过去老北京的四合院,肯定会种有槐树、柿子树,或者海棠、石榴、枣树等。北京过去种的比较多的是杨柳树,因为北京适合种杨柳树,同时要注意把针阔林比例结合好,使之更符合生物链、生态链要求。要在绿化基础上加强彩化,多种一些色彩斑斓的树种,努力建设全域森林城市,把北京建设得更美。

习近平强调,当前和今后一个时期,绿色发展是我国发展的重大战略。开展全民义务植树是推进国土绿化、建设美丽中国的生动实践。各地区各部门都要结合实际,组织开展义务植树。要创新组织方式、丰富尽责形式,为广大公众参与义务植树提供更多便利,实现“全年尽责、多样尽责、方便尽责”。让我们积极行动起来,从种树开始,种出属于大家的绿水青山和金山银山,绘出美丽中国的更新画卷。

在京中共中央政治局委员、中央书记处书记、国务委员等参加植树活动。

 

Xi calls for afforestation efforts during tree planting activity

 

Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, Chinese president and chairman of the Central Military Commission, participated in a voluntary tree planting activity on Tuesday morning in Beijing. He called for national endeavor for tree planting during this season of growth.
Xi stressed that around this time each year, there is a tree-planting campaign from the country's warmer south to north. "Today, we are planting trees in order to call on more people to do the same. It is not just for more efforts to make the vast lands of China greener, but also help develop the awareness of afforestation among the general public," he said. "Together let us embrace this season of hope and build China into a beautiful country," he added.
Drizzling in the suburbs of Beijing has added to the vibrancy of the springtime. At 10:30 a.m., Xi and other Party and state leaders including Li Qiang, Zhao Leji, Wang Huning, Cai Qi, Ding Xuexiang, Li Xi and Han Zheng arrived at Dongba Central Park in Beijing's Chaoyang District amid the rain to attend the voluntary tree planting activity along with other participants in the capital.
The planting site is in Dongba Central Park at the confluence of the Beixiaohe River and Bahe River, covering an area of about 20 hectares. There used to be a village here called Dongfeng Village under Dongba Township. After villagers were relocated, the site vacated, and environment improved, the area is now planned to become an ecological space featuring biodiversity. In the park, officials and residents of Beijing as well as members of the Chinese Young Pioneers were planting trees with great enthusiasm.
Catching sight of Xi, they all extended greetings to him. Xi put on a raincoat, picked up a shovel, and walked to the place for tree-planting, joining in the activity together with leading officials from the Beijing municipal government and National Forestry and Grassland Administration.
Digging pits, building soil berms and watering saplings, Xi planted saplings of different types of trees including Chinese pine, midget crabapple, Chinese pagoda tree, persimmon tree and red-barked dogwood. Everyone was busy amid a warm atmosphere. While planting trees, Xi told students how to plant trees and enquired about their study and daily life. He asked them how old their parents were, whether biology lessons were taught in primary school, how much knowledge they had about plants, how much homework and extracurricular tutoring they had now. He also advised the students to be enthusiastic about work from childhood in order to develop sound moral grounding, intellectual ability, physical vigor, aesthetic sensibility and work skills. Xi stressed that children's upbringing is the same as planting trees. Just as a tree must be kept upright at the very beginning of its growth or else it will get crooked, a child must be educated to be upright as well at a very early age to avoid going astray.
After the trees were planted, secondary and primary school students, officials and other people present gathered around. Xi told them that China ranks the first in the world in terms of artificial afforestation areas, and the scale is still expanding. China and its people have made invaluable contributions to making the earth greener and responding to global climate change. Forests help conserve water, bring in economic benefits, boost grain production and also serve as a carbon sink. Planting trees is a noble cause of great significance which creates benefits for not only our generation but also future generations. We must continue our endeavor in this regard with consistent and persistent efforts.
Xi recalled his participation in tree planting activities. He said that this is the 11th time he has taken part in such activity since he became general secretary of the CPC Central Committee. Counting the number of times he has done this since he started to work in the CPC Central Committee, it has been 16 times. "When I was working in Fujian Province, Zhejiang Province and Shanghai, I also attended tree planting activities," Xi said. He told the primary and middle school students that when they become parents, they should also let their children and grandchildren continue to plant trees from generation to generation, which is the way how a beautiful China is built.
Xi said that he grew up in Beijing and much of his homesickness is related to trees. In a siheyuan (quadrangle) in old Beijing, there were definitely scholar trees, persimmon trees, or crabapple, pomegranate and date trees. In the past, more poplar and willow trees were planted in Beijing because the city is suitable for such trees. Additionally, attention should be paid to balance the proportion of coniferous and broad-leaf trees to better meet the requirements of the biological and ecological chains. We should strengthen colorization on the basis of greening, plant trees of vibrant colors, strive to build an all-area forest city so as to make Beijing more beautiful.
Xi emphasized that green development is a major strategy for China's current and future development. Launching voluntary tree planting activities nationwide is a vivid practice to promote afforestation and build a beautiful China. All departments and all regions should organize such activities in light of specific conditions. Efforts should be made to develop new ways of organization in this regard and come up with new models to fulfill organizers' due responsibilities so as to make it more convenient for the general public to participate. Duties in this regard should be performed throughout the year, in various ways and in a convenient manner. He called for nationwide action to make waters lucid and mountains lush that are invaluable assets, and write a new chapter in building a beautiful China through planting trees.
Members of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, members of the Secretariat of the CPC Central Committee and state councilors in Beijing participated.
