Ecological poverty-relief programmes in China help increase income for rural residents
Gu Zhongyang, Yu Jingxian
For nearly 10 years, forestry and grassland bureaus at various levels in China have actively practised the philosophy of âlucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assetsâ, and vigorously advanced the countryâs poverty alleviation campaign through ecological compensation, afforestation, and the development of ecological industry.
These bureaus have completed all the tasks and targets set in the countryâs programmes designed to promote poverty reduction through ecological conservation and restoration, lifting over 20 million poor people out of poverty.

Xiong Yulan, 34, still harbors childhood memories of the thundering explosions that once served as signal pistols to summon villagers for rallies.
Firing gunpowder was the most efficient way to send messages in Xiong s hometown, Dulongjiang (Derung River) township in Gongshan, in the early 1990s as no phones were available in the area near the Derung River in Yunnan province.
