Most people see satellite remote sensing photographs as color pictures, but Shandong University of Science and Technology professor Sun Lin and his team see them as a “treasure” full with information.
Sun said algorithm research and model creation enable researchers evaluate satellite remote sensing photographs and find the underlying information.
He noted that satellite remote sensing images are crucial to ecological restoration and governance, monitoring large-scale straw burning and forest fires, surface water pollution, air pollution, and solid waste accumulation, and analyzing forests, grasslands, and wetlands.
Chinese modernity emphasizes human-nature harmony.
“Harmonious coexistence between man and nature” suggests a new approach for China’s ecological restoration and governance and calls for more creative environmental governance technologies and methodologies. Technology will aid China’s ecological rehabilitation and governance.
China was the most active country in environmental technology innovation from 2011 to 2020, according to a white paper titled “China’s Green Development in the New Era.”
China additionally ensures that ecological environmental science and technology research outcomes meet particular demands.
The Ministry of Ecology and Environment created a nationwide comprehensive service platform for eco-friendly sci-tech transformation in 2019.
The site contains 4,800 great sci-tech achievements and 2.2 million technical entry views.
According to Renmin University of China professor Shi Lei, sci-tech development will apply more advanced technologies to ecological restoration and environmental protection, improving governance efficiency and helping build a modern ecological environment governance system.
China is encouraging digital China building throughout the board. Digital technology is increasingly essential for the government to strengthen ecological governance.
China is also studying ecological product value. Urban modern agriculture, leisure agriculture, ecotourism, and boutique homestays are quickly expanding ecological industry models. Green industries expand.
Science and technology are helping China’s environment and economy. Shi said it symbolizes the “Chinese wisdom” of peaceful cohabitation between man and nature and the people-centered development approach in ecological governance. ■
