Discussion keeps the world turning.
This is roundtable.
Hello, everybody.
Welcome to roundtable.
Coming to you live from Beijing.
I'm he young.
Good as always to have you with us.
On today's show, we commemorate the enactment of the Yellow river protection law, a testament to China's commitment to ecological preservation and sustainable development beyond legal frameworks.
What cultural and societal shifts are needed to truly nurture and protect the Yellow river for generations to come?
And were on a mission of starting your week with a motivational kick.
Our motivational Monday offerings will get you ready to tackle the week for Todays program.
Im joined by Yu Xun and Brandon Yates in the studio.
First on Todays show, as we mark the first anniversary of Chinas Yellow River Protection Law on April 1, it's an opportune time to reflect on the strides made in safeguarding the lifeline of, let's say, 168 million chinese people.
From legislative milestones to on ground conservation efforts, what accomplishments stand out to you the most?
And equally important, what lingering challenges demand our urgent attention as we embark on another year of protecting our mother river?
So, Yushun, I'm gonna go to you first.
Remind us what key provisions stand out in this law.
So, first of all, to bolster ecological protection and restoration.
The law stipulates that the country will put the restoration of nature first, while combining natural restoration with artificial restoration, and will intensify the comprehensive, systematic and source management of pollution in their yellow river basin.
The law states that the country will make economical and intensive use of water resources in the yellow river basin with efforts made to promote water efficient agricultural and industrial production, as well as water saving urban activities.
