2021-2025年绿色发展取得坚实进展
China has made significant strides in green development during the 14th Five-Year Plan period (2021-2025), with increased forest coverage, improved biodiversity, and closer harmony between humans and nature.
中国在十四个五年计划(2021-2025)期间,在绿色发展方面取得了显著进展,森林覆盖面积扩大,生物多样性改善,人与自然更加和谐。
China completed 549 million mu (about 36.6 million hectares) of land greening in the period, including 185 million mu of afforestation.
中国在此期间完成了5.49亿亩(约3660万公顷)的土地绿化,其中包括1.85亿亩的造林。
With its forest coverage rate rising to 25.09 percent, up nearly two percentage points from 2020, China contributed roughly one-quarter of the world's newly added greenery. China's forest stock volume has reached 20.99 billion cubic meters, hitting the 2030 target ahead of schedule.
中国的森林覆盖率上升至25.09%,比2020年增长近两个百分点,贡献了全球新加入绿化面积的约四分之一。中国森林资源量已达到209.9亿立方米,提前达到2030年目标。

Let's talk
What should we do to reduce these types of pollution?
Cutting down
cars
Smoke from factories
Wastewater
Today we're going to talk about the four main types of pollution.
Soil is polluted by chemical waste and other rubbish from humans. Cutting down too many trees can also lead to soil pollution.
Then there is noise pollution. This is usually caused by cars, trucks and buses on the road. Noise from building work also creates noise pollution.
Air pollution is another big problem. Most air pollution is caused by the burning of unclean fuels. Smoke from factories pollutes the air as well.
Finally, water in rivers, lakes and seas is polluted because of many human activities. For example, people pour chemicals into rivers and lakes. Wastewater also adds to water pollution.

Which type of pollution is the biggest problem in your hometown? Explain.
C
P107
C
In my hometown, air pollution is the biggest problem.
First, there are many factories near our city. They burn a lot of coal every day and release dirty smoke into the air. Second, more and more people drive cars to work or go to school. This makes the air even worse.
On foggy days, we can't see far away. Some people, especially old people and children, often have sore throats or cough a lot.
Luckily, our government is trying to solve the problem. It asks factories to use clean energy and encourages people to take buses or ride bikes. I hope the air in my hometown will be fresher soon.
