At the State Council’s Work Conference on Energy Conservation, Emission Reduction and Response to Climate Change on October 1,
< r: Premier Li Keqiang emphasized that hard measures must be used to complete the hard tasks of energy conservation and emission reduction. We will crack down hard on illegal discharges of excessive and excessive emissions, evading monitoring, and other harmful behaviors as well as regulatory dereliction of duty, and severely punish relevant business units and responsible persons. : br Premier Li Keqiang’s sonorous and powerful speech not only reflects the central government’s firm determination to further promote energy conservation and emission reduction and promote sustainable economic and social development, but also demonstrates the government’s spirit of responsibility to the people and future generations.
: br With the rapid economic and social development and the continuous increase in material wealth, while the people are enjoying a good life, they are also suffering from the deterioration of the ecological environment. Some farmland that used to be fragrant with fruits and melons has become a garbage dump, and rivers that were once crystal clear have turned into smelly ditches. The blue sky has become less smoggy, and the happiness index of the people has been obviously affected.
: br Although there are many reasons for the destruction of the ecological environment, the important point is that some companies ignore their minimum social and legal responsibilities and illegally discharge excessive emissions to avoid monitoring. For the sake of their own selfish interests, some companies blatantly discharge pollutants illegally, or covertly discharge pollutants secretly, or do everything possible to evade environmental monitoring, becoming the most direct culprits of ecological environment damage.
: br In addition, the inaction of some local governments is also an important reason. As a relevant
< r : government department< r : responsible for supervising energy conservation, emission reduction and environmental protection, it should become the natural enemy of illegal pollutant discharge companies. However, in real life, some functional departments turn a blind eye and turn a blind eye when faced with illegal pollutant discharges by enterprises. Some of them do nothing or pretend to do something, and even work together to engage in power-rent-seeking corruption and become the target of illegal pollutant discharge enterprises. The biggest umbrella. The dereliction of duty, dereliction of duty and even corruption of these government departments have allowed the harmful behavior of illegal pollutant companies to be done, and become the driving force behind the destruction of the ecological environment due to ineffective energy conservation and emission reduction.
: br Therefore, it is necessary to vigorously promote energy conservation and emission reduction, and fulfill the target of reducing unit energy consumption by 10% this year set out in the government work report. The government must be determined, brave enough to shoulder the burden, and strive to find a path for energy consumption. The new approach of reducing emissions and increasing economic development also requires the use of legal tools, strict law enforcement and supervision, through open and covert inspections, resolutely investigate and deal with cases found, and strengthen the rigidity and deterrence of the law through heavy strikes and severe punishments, so as to contribute to energy conservation and emission reduction. and the ecological environment to carry out institutional and legal checks.
