| The development of the Three Gorges Reservoir Area always attracts widespread attention. While many scholars had conducted series of studies, the consensus that to keep on path of sustainable development for the Three Gorges Reservoir Area was reached. Three Gorges Reservoir experienced a historic change since the day that Three Gorges relocation work started. Ecological environment and economic and social conditions has undergone significant changes. Although brilliant achievements accomplished, under the new situation and new requirements it brings a series of new problems. In the aspect of ecological environment, the problem is mainly appeared as ever increasing demand for protection of the water environment of the reservoir area. The situations like heightened vulnerability of the ecological environment, more prominent agricultural non-point source pollution problem, the drawdown area reserved protection is not able to be solved effectively. On the other hand, when we look into economic and social condition, the problem is expressed as widening gap between urban and rural areas. Unbalanced urban and rural construction, economic growth that independent from investment, low employment rate of immigration, uneven regional development are expected to be taken care of urgently. The contradiction between the economic and social development and environmental protection determines we must develop sustainably when constructing the Three Gorges Reservoir Area.How is the sustainable development in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area now? Through collecting the year books of districts and counties in the Three Gorges reservoir area of recent years, use factor analysis to build the evaluation model to evaluate the state of sustainable development of some districts and counties in the reservoir area. To illustrate, I selected Wuhan, Shenzhen, Shanghai and Chongqing as a control area. Through the evaluation, we can understand the reservoir area is in a relatively good level when considering the ecological environment, but not as good as developed area when it comes to economic side because social stability and political environment, sustainable development is below average. When carrying out sustainable development of the Three Gorges reservoir area, we must pay attention to the difference between the districts and counties, emphases on the status of the Three Gorges Reservoir Area to promote sustainable development in the reservoir area thoroughly.How do we perform the sustainable development of the Three Gorges Reservoir Area? The answer is, despite industrial development has always been the core of regional development, we must stick to the road of eco-industries when we develop the industry of the Three Gorges reservoir area which is one of the main content of sustainable development.Analyzing the eco-industrial parks and eco-agriculture park of the Three Gorges Reservoir Area, we can understand the present and future of the Three Gorges Reservoir on the eco-industrial and eco-agricultural development. The construction of Eco-industrial park of the Three Gorges reservoir area must consider building eco-industrial chain as the priority and take the initiative to create pollution control and resource recycling system that good enough to reduce emissions of pollutants and waste. Hence, negative ecological and environmental impact of the industrial park were minimized. A few problems have been found in the eco-industries development, including the overall layout and size of the reservoir park unreasonable; inability of some local government for providing support for the park initial investment; lack of professionals, management mechanism falls behind; some planning work may be inappropriate and hence not being able to guide districts and counties to perform eco-industrial development and other issues correctly. Facing these problems, local authorities must pay attention to the guiding role of planning, speed up the development of qualified personnel, improve the management to ensure of the construction of eco-industrial park be on schedule. Ecological agriculture park construction must be modernized and eco-friendly. Promote eco-friendly technology and industrialized agriculture in the agro-ecological field, and facilitate the development of leading agricultural enterprises.As an important unit of regional development in the reservoir area, sustainable development path of county level economy is of great significance to the regional sustainable development. When we look into Kaixian, we can understand for sustainable development in the Three Gorges reservoir area we must promote industrialization, agricultural modernization and urbanization simultaneously. Any one-sided development of above cannot achieve sustainable development. To promote the "three modernizations", we are not supposed to do it blindly, but infuse ecological civilization into the construction and realize the simultaneous development of ecological industry, ecological agriculture and new urbanization. Therefore, the sustainable development path of the Three Gorges reservoir area of can be summarized as "three modernizations " coordinated development path with the core content of construction of ecological civilization.On the policy level, there is a certain continuity of the Three Gorges policy during the whole development. However, the main idea of the policy is to promote the development of immigration. Entering the after Three Gorges period, we need to emphases on Secure Prosperity of immigration and protection of ecological environment, and look at the development of the Three Gorges Reservoir in a more comprehensively manner. According to the sustainable development path of the previously summarized, author posed opinions from the three aspects which are industrial development, environmental protection and urbanization, which is to promote the reservoir area engage the path of "three modernizations " coordinated development with the core content of construction of ecological civilization.In conclusion, through an integrated evaluation, we found the issues and influencing factors of sustainable development of the reservoir area. We also learned that going on the path of sustainable development, we must pay attention to the difference between the districts and counties, stay on the path of coordinated development which takes "three modernizations" as core. |
