China has made notable progress in improving water quality, restoring aquatic¹ biodiversity and controlling pollution in the Yangtze River basin, according to the report.

报告显示，长江流域在水质提升、水生物种多样性修复以及污染防控方面均取得明显成效。

 

Water quality of 96.7 percent of Yangtze River segments reached Level III standard or above in 2020, 13.3 percentage points higher than the national average and 14.9 percentage points higher than the 2015 figure. For the first time, the water quality of the main stream of the Yangtze River reached Level II standard or above in 2020, the report notes.

2020年，长江流域水质优良（Ⅲ类以上）断面比例为96.7%，高于全国平均水平13.3个百分点，较2015年提高14.9个百分点，干流首次全线达到Ⅱ类水质。

 

落实长江“十年禁渔”

 

Provinces and municipalities along the Yangtze River have effectively implemented² the 10-year fishing ban, with 228,000 fishermen on 110,000 boats relinquishing³ their nets, says the report, adding that there have been more frequent sightings of flagship species, such as the Yangtze finless⁴ porpoise⁵, after the ban.

沿江省市落实长江“十年禁渔”，累计退捕渔船11万艘、渔民22.8万人。禁捕后，长江江豚等旗舰物种的出现频率增加。

Amid pollution control efforts, 558 hazardous⁶ chemical production enterprises in densely⁷ populated urban areas of the Yangtze River Economic Belt have been relocated or transformed, accounting⁸ for 97.2 percent of the total number, says the report.

在污染治理方面，完成长江经济带城镇人口密集区危险化学品生产企业搬迁改造558家，完成率97.2%。

 

Measures have been taken to curb⁹ agricultural non-point source pollution, says the report, adding that efforts have been strengthened to prevent shipping¹⁰ pollution, promoting the use of new and clean energy by ships in ports along the Yangtze River Economic Belt.

加强农业面源污染防治，同时，加强航运污染治理，持续推进长江经济带港口船舶使用新能源、清洁能源。

 

推动绿色发展

 

2021年是全面贯彻落实长江保护法（the Yangtze River conservation law）的第一年。要全面贯彻落实长江保护法，依法推动长江流域生态环境保护。

 

More efforts will be made in promoting green development, preventing and controlling pollution, carrying out ecological¹¹ restoration, and establishing and improving relevant systems and mechanisms¹², the report notes.

要扎实推动绿色发展，深入开展污染防治，持续开展生态修复，建立健全制度机制。
