Dongying, China,, April 22, 2025 / Prnewswire / – A report by chinadaily.com.cn:
Located at the northern tip of Bohai bay, doning in eastern China Shandong The province stands at the confluence of the Yellow River and the Sea – a region shaped by nature and defined by transformation.
Over the years, the city has adopted development that harmonizes economic progress with ecological preservation.
As a land recovered from the sea, a large part of the yellow river delta is young, with saline soils and vulnerable ecosystems.
However, the efforts to regulate the current water, including 25 consecutive years of uninterrupted yellow river flow, have considerably improved the quality of the soil and revitalized the ecological environment of the region.
Protective and restoration initiatives of targeted wetlands have improved biodiversity and strengthened ecological resilience in the region. The Yellow’s National Nature Nature Reserve now supports a flourishing habitat of 685 species of seed plants and 1,633 wild species. Bird populations alone have almost doubled since the early 1990s.
Dongying’s ecological vision goes far beyond the delta. A growing network of urban parks – 316 in total – has transformed the city landscape.
With green spaces accessible within 300 meters and parks within 500 meters, Dongying offers its residents a living environment where nature is close and carefully integrated into urban life.
The city also illustrates how industry and ecology can coexist.
In Guangli River Forest Wetland Park, oil extraction continues under a cautiously preserved green canopy. Despite the work in progress, the area maintains a high ecological value and is open to the public for leisure and education.
Offshore, Dongying is investing in clean energy for the future. In November 2024The first phase of an offshore photovoltaic supply project of 1 GW was connected to the network. Once fully operational, the installation will generate around 1,800 GWh of electricity per year – equivalent to saving more than 500,000 metric tonnes of standard coal.
In 2024, Dongying reached GDP growth of 6.5%, with an increase of 9.5% in industrial production.
More than 300 industrial upgrade projects have been launched, while marine economic production should reach 120 billion yuan ($ 16.47 billion). Emerging sectors such as offshore wind energy, lithium materials, advanced manufacturing and biomedicine thrive, position Dongying as a hub for green innovation.
From the restoration of wetlands to renewable energies, Dongying builds a lasting future – where rivers meet the sea and growth meets responsibility.
