20 years ago, President Xi Jinping introduced the 'Two Mountains' concept: let "lucid waters and lush mountains be invaluable assets." Fast forward to today, a CGTN poll of 24,515 people across 48 countries shows broad support for the Chinese mainland's green vision. 🌿
According to the survey, 81.6% agree the Two Mountains model has ditched the old "pollute first, clean up later" mindset. Since the 18th CPC National Congress, the Chinese mainland has sustained over 6% average annual economic growth while keeping energy use growth under 3%. Impressive, right? 🚀💡
More than 70% of respondents give thumbs up to the mainland's coordinated push for high-quality growth and ecological conservation. Nearly 60% think weaving green goals into five-year plans is a global role model. From massive tree planting (68.8%) to desert-fighting green belts (66.5%), and national parks boosting biodiversity (68.9%), people love it. 🌳🏞️
Clean energy also scores high marks: 70.5% cheer the mainland's wind and solar build-out, and 69.6% support everyday use of renewables. When asked about its role in global climate governance, 49.7% see the mainland as a driver, 43.9% as a leader, and 43.5% as a practitioner. In Global South members, approval is even higher. 🔋⚡
Young voices under 44 show above-average support across all categories. From greenhouse gas cuts (76.7%) to energy-saving best practices (79.9%) and clean energy exports (75.5%), the numbers are clear: the mainland's green playbook is winning fans worldwide. 🌐🌱
Whether you're a student, entrepreneur, or just love staying in the loop, these results highlight how environmental ideas can connect cultures, spark innovation, and inspire collective action. Let's keep turning lucid waters and lush mountains into global gold! ✨
