Chinese Premier Li Qiang on Friday presided over a State Council executive meeting, which approved an action plan for advancing the green and low-carbon development of manufacturing (2025-2027) and reviewed measures to improve the compensation mechanism for ecological conservation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The meeting also discussed a draft amendment to the nation’s Food Safety Law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The meeting emphasized the need to accelerate innovation in green technologies and expand the application of advanced solutions, while calling for a deep green transformation of traditional industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It also urged emerging sectors to pursue high-standard green development from the outset, focusing on promoting clean energy and green products, while enhancing the level of resource recycling and utilization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The meeting called for establishing a compensation mechanism for ecological conservation that is more comprehensive in coverage, clearer in responsibilities, and more efficient in governance, with refined key tasks and concrete implementation measures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It urged further progress in developing ecological compensation mechanisms along major rivers, while steadily expanding the scope to include other ecological elements such as forests, grasslands, and the atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The meeting decided to submit a draft amendment to the Food Safety Law to the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress for deliberation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Stressing that food safety is vital to public health, the meeting called for the establishment of a more rigorous and science-based food safety standard system, particularly for mandatory standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It also emphasized the need to shift toward a preventive approach in food safety governance, strengthen oversight across the entire supply chain, and enforce strict routine inspections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
