National Ecological Day National Ecological Day is an ecological commemoration day established in my country, held annually on August 15th. It aims to popularize Xi Jinping's Thought on Ecological Civilization, raise awareness of ecological civilization throughout society, and strengthen the public's awareness and commitment to protecting the ecological environment. August 15, 2025, will be the third National Ecological Day. This year's theme is "Lucid Waters and Lush Mountains Are Invaluable Assets." Background of the establishment of National Ecology Day Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, under the guidance of Xi Jinping's thought on ecological civilization, my country's ecological environment protection has undergone historic, turning-point and overall changes, and the construction of ecological civilization has achieved remarkable results, bringing a strong sense of gain and happiness to the people. It has effectively promoted the harmonious coexistence of man and nature, which has become the common understanding of the whole party and society. "Green water and green mountains are gold and silver mountains" has become the common concept of people of all ethnic groups across the country, and green, circular and low-carbon development has become the common action of all regions and departments. The significance of establishing National Ecology Day 01 Strengthen institutional safeguards National Ecological Day legally incorporates ecological civilization development into the national governance framework, providing strong support for ecological protection legislation and policy implementation. This institutional design transforms ecological protection from a "soft task" into a "hard constraint," advancing pollution prevention and resource conservation efforts onto a standardized and long-term track. It also strengthens the institutional framework for the implementation of strategies such as the "dual carbon" goals and ensures that ecological priority permeates the entire development process. 02 Raising public awareness Through diverse activities such as science exhibitions and environmental education classes, Ecology Day deeply instills the concept that "ecological protection concerns everyone." Using concrete examples, it highlights the fragility of ecosystems, breaking down the perceived barrier of "environmental protection has nothing to do with me." This empowers the public to move from being "bystanders" to being "informed," proactively focusing on environmental issues around them and fostering a social atmosphere where everyone cares about the environment. 03 Demonstrating the responsibility of a major country Ecology Day is China's strong green voice in global environmental governance. It showcases China's achievements in desertification control and biodiversity conservation to the world, shares replicable governance experiences, actively responds to international conventions such as the Paris Agreement and the Convention on Biological Diversity, promotes the building of a global ecological conservation community, and contributes Chinese solutions and strength to addressing global issues such as climate change.
