Problems and Future Development of Ecological Civilization Construction in Northeast China's Old Industrial Base

Abstract

The Northeast Old Industrial Base serves as a vital industrial hub in China and a crucial ecological security barrier for northern China. Boasting abundant natural resources, robust industrial foundations, comprehensive infrastructure, and numerous national key projects, the region has achieved remarkable progress in ecological civilization construction since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, guided by Xi Jinping's Ecological Civilization Thought to address regional ecological challenges. However, persistent issues remain in the current ecological development efforts. In this new era, how to resolve existing ecological challenges and explore a green, low-carbon development path that balances environmental sustainability with economic prosperity continues to be a significant theoretical and practical challenge for the socio-economic development of the Northeast Old Industrial Base.
