Alongside economic development, the country has expanded efforts in natural-resource protection, pollution control, ecological restoration and the development of greener production systems.<\/p>\n<p>China\u2019s landmark Ecological and Environmental Code is also set to take effect this Saturday, providing stronger legal support for sustainable and environmentally friendly development.<\/p>\n<p>Together, the new development plan and strengthened legal framework are expected to further integrate China\u2019s green modernization agenda with ecological security, biodiversity conservation and the sustainable management of natural resources during the 2026\u20132030 period.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/eng.dragonmedia.com.np\/?p=22447\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"time\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground: #ffffff !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 100% !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dragon Media News Desk China will intensify efforts to strengthen ecological conservation during the 2026\u20132030 period as part of its continued pursuit of green modernization, according to a recently issued development plan.
