Hey there, eco-warriors! 🌱 Guess what? China's President Xi Jinping is giving a big shoutout to environmental volunteers (that's you!) for promoting water conservation and helping create harmony between humans and nature. 🤝
Just ahead of China's second National Ecology Day this Thursday, President Xi took the time to reply to a letter from volunteers working at the Danjiangkou Reservoir in Shiyan City, Hubei Province. 📬 How cool is that?
So, what's so special about Danjiangkou Reservoir? It's the source of water for the middle route of China's epic South-to-North Water Diversion Project. 🚰 Back in 2014, when the first phase kicked off, Xi gave important instructions, and since then, everyone's been working hard to protect the water quality.
Over the past decade, officials, residents, and especially environmental volunteers have been rolling up their sleeves to keep the reservoir sparkling clean. ✨ Recently, these volunteers wrote to President Xi, sharing their stories and promising to keep up the good work.
In his reply, Xi applauded their efforts, saying that thanks to everyone's participation, \"the water in the reservoir area is clearer, the mountains are greener, and the environment is more beautiful.\" 🏞️ Isn't that inspiring?
He also stressed that the water diversion project is a big deal—not just for now but for the future and well-being of the people. Xi called for ongoing efforts to protect the reservoir's ecological environment. 🌍
President Xi encouraged the volunteers to inspire more folks to save water consciously and join hands in building a beautiful China. Together, we can make a bigger splash in creating harmony between humans and nature! 💧💚
He also sent heartfelt greetings to environmental protection workers and volunteers across the country. So if you're out there making a difference, this one's for you! 🙌
