Yellow River protection at heart of guideline

The Ministry of Ecology and Environment, the National Development and Reform Commission, and the ministries of natural resources and water resources jointly issued the document, titled "Outline of the Yellow River Basin's Ecological and Environmental Protection".

The document will serve as a guide addressing challenges for policymaking and engineering project planning in the basin.

By 2030, the document predicts that the basin's environment and associated industrial layout will have been further improved, as well as governance systems around its climate and broader environment.
