A field after the haze since the winter of 2016, China's development will usher in big changes.

On January 12, the national development and Reform Commission spokesman Zhao Chenxin said in a routine monthly macro data release, recently issued more than one involves the assessment of ecological indicators of ecological indicators of environmental quality and other people's sense of giving very high scores and weights.

The strengthening of the local Party Committee and the Government responsibility for ecological civilization construction, to truly implement the "one post double responsibility", the assessment results as the provincial party and Government leading bodies and leading cadres comprehensive assessment and evaluation, an important basis for cadre appointment and removal of rewards and punishments. International horses in the eyes of the wisdom

This will make the assessment of development results, there are guiding changes.

"These indicators design, system design, guide the constraints of local Party Committee and Government as benefiting green ecological civilization construction starting point and ending point and speed up the construction of ecological civilization and environment quality improvement. "Zhao Chenxin said at the Conference mentioned above.

18 plenary session of the party of five large development philosophy, green development and the construction of ecological civilization in the prominent position defined by 2020 China's overall goal of improving environmental quality.

In the above-mentioned indexes, GDP (gross domestic product) indicators such as weight far below environment, this means that since 1949 China GDP-oriented economic growth pattern would change radically, evaluation of environmental factors in the GDP is more important than the location for the first time.

Smog under the pressure of development-oriented transformation

"The residents of smog have deep, residents pay more attention to the quality of life. "The College of urban and environmental researcher Zhao Pengjun told reporters that central in places more emphasis on environmental indicators of assessment, which places in the industrial structural adjustment has to take into account environmental considerations.

Under the December 2016 Central Office, issued by the State Council of the objective evaluation method of ecological civilization construction, objective appraisal of ecological civilization construction in the field of environmental and ecological resources on the integrated special examination on the basis of the carried out, evaluation and assessment methods, and an annual evaluation, a five-year evaluation.

Annual evaluation index system in accordance with green development implementation, which mainly assesses regional resource use, environmental management, environmental quality, environmental protection and quality of growth, green living, trends and dynamics of public satisfaction regarding progress, build green development in various regions.

Target assessment includes economic and social development planning, resource and environmental constraints of the targets set in the platform for, and the Party Central Committee and the State Council ecological civilization construction of major objectives of the deployment tasks, highlighting the sense of public access.

Area of assessment grade is not qualified, criticized, and interviewed their party Chief, proposed rectification requests on eco-environmental damage significantly, responsibility in areas prone to party Chief and head of (including the already transferred, promoted, retired), eco-environmental damage liability in accordance with the party and Government leading cadres (trial) provides that liability.

Zhao Chenxin said that shortly before the issuance of the construction of ecological civilization objective evaluation methods, the ecological civilization construction assessment target system, and after the index system of green development, implementation will strengthen its efforts to do a good job this year.

They also introduced the satisfaction of local residents on ecological civilization construction of appraisal index, reflecting the wider access on the improvement of ecological environment in the people a sense of orientation.

Meanwhile, the strengthening of the local Party Committee and the Government responsibility for ecological civilization construction, in terms of results, reflecting the combination of rewards and punishments. This is done through these efforts, environmental quality will get better and better.

Since the beginning of winter last year, heavy pollution weather frequency, long duration, sphere of influence is high, have had a negative impact on economic and social development, and also attracted the attention of the whole society and even anxiety, also has a great deal of pressure on the public opinion.

"We have seen, although there are effective, but this results from our people on the green hills and clear water, blue sky and white clouds expectations, there is still not a small gap. "Zhao Chenxin said.

The new evaluation policy implementation

Major changes in Chinese economic growth baton, in the local government and local party and Government leadership of evaluation, weighting about environment, energy resources, much faster than the GDP.

Green index system such as, resource use weights, 29.3% environmental control weight 16.5%, quality weights 19.3%, ecological protection weight 16.5%, quality weights 9.2%, green living weight 9.2%. GDP growth weight less resource use, environmental quality weights half of total test weight is less than 10%.

In particular, the growth rate of per capita GDP weights only 1.83%, but energy consumption per unit GDP weights reach the standard weight of 2.75%;PM2.5 index 2.75%, urban air quality level and over weight 2.75% days; five water surface water degradation, forest cover, the weight is 2.75%.

National Bureau of original director Huang Langhui said that China's development and significant changes in the way, the recent haze increase, larger social repercussions, reflected the increased environmental pollution has affected the physical security and social stability problems. Society has reached a consensus, that is purely in the pursuit of economic growth as a result of declining environmental quality, such growth does not make any sense.

"The new appraisal system descriptions, around ensuring environmental quality improved more in the future to achieve comprehensive development, rather than simply the pursuit of economic growth. "Huang Langhui said.

Huang Langhui in the 21st century economy in the near future around 2016 the integrated calculation of the level of development of the Institute, with high weight setting for the environment. In his view, meet the requirements of central evaluation next year and need to further increase the environmental weight, reducing the weight of economic growth.

Recently released data showed that 2016 Hebei provincial average PM2.5 concentration fell 9.1%, standard increased by 16 days. 2016 Beijing annual average PM2.5 concentrations to 73 micrograms/cubic meter, down 9.9%. But the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei 2016 smog concentrations are still super standards more than 1 time, if in accordance with World Health Organization standards, exceeding more than 5 times. Meanwhile, residents feel the smog worse.

National Federation of environmental Chamber of Commerce Secretary General Luo Jianhua pointed out that residents feel is right, because last winter lots of urban smog levels are deepening, despite smog concentrations may be on the decline. Current smog causes a lot, but the underlying cause is pollution emissions. Fewer cars than Beijing, Tokyo and New York, but smog isn't so serious.

Luo Jianhua believes that enterprise Superovulation and steal exhaust pollutants are the main factors, if not more rows of stealing line, may be serious when PM2.5 concentrations in the winter is 100-200 micrograms per cubic meter, is not 500-1000 micrograms per cubic meter. So the key is to solve the air pollution problem, law enforcement needs to be strengthened in this regard. Countries should increase the corporate rows of stealing line of investigation, if necessary, sue.

If current green index system and assessment method of ecological civilization, may every year, and 5 years later may not be able to fulfill a large number of provinces. Such as total energy indicators may be broken, many provincial examination scores of serious back, party leaders might want to be accountable. Experts point out that this involves the final policy implementation issues.
