A | China will step up efforts to strengthen ecological conservation during the 2026-2030 period as it continues to pursue green modernization, according to a recently issued development plan.
The plan, jointly issued by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, the Ministry of Natural Resources and other departments, said China aims to steadily improve the quality of its ecosystems, enhance ecosystem diversity, stability and resilience, and better safeguard the country's ecological security.
The plan also sets specific targets for the period, including keeping the proportion of land area covered by protected areas at no less than 18 percent of the country's total land area and raising the Ecological Quality Index (EQI) to 86.5. It also calls for increasing the soil and water conservation rate to above 74 percent and raising the forest coverage rate to 25.8 percent.
It also outlines tasks to further optimize the ecological spatial configuration, advance ecosystem protection and restoration, and comprehensively strengthen biodiversity conservation.
China has continued to strengthen ecological conservation and environmental protection. The country's landmark Ecological and Environmental Code, set to take effect this Saturday, marks another major step in these efforts, providing stronger legal support for sustainable and environmentally friendly development.
。 Islamabad, Oct 9 (UNI) A fire broke out in the food court of a popular shopping mall in Pakistan's capital Islamabad on Sunday, media reports said.
The fire has been brought under control and the cooling process has been initiated after videos on social media platforms showed smoke emitting out of the building, according to Geo news.
In a statement, Islamabad Police said that people were rescued and safely evacuated from the backdoor of the mall — which was engulfed in smoke after the fire.
The search operation is still underway, and no person or shop has been harmed, the police said, adding that the fire inside the mall has been doused out and a helicopter has also been called in.
"However, the fire has not been completely extinguished on the outside of the mall," the police said, requesting the citizens to avoid travelling near the mall to ensure that rescue teams could do their work uninterrupted.
To oversee the situation, Inspector-General Islamabad Dr Akbar Nasir Khan, senior police officials, and district administration representatives reached the mall, located in F-8.
Chairman Capital Development Authority (CDA) capt (retd) Mohammed Usman Younas is also at the site and overseeing rescue and firefighting operations.
All resources are being utilised to control the fire as early as possible, the CDA added.
The Islamabad Police later said that the building, under the orders of the deputy commissioner, would be sealed once the rescue operation was completed.
It added that the mall's building would remain sealed until a probe into the matter has been carried out. Until then, entry into the building would remain prohibited to the public.
In a separate statement, the police said that due to the fire, diversions have been placed for traffic from F-8 Exchange Chowk to Khyaban Chowk at Jinnah Avenue.
In his tweet, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said that he was saddened by the incident and directed all authorities to ensure that the situation was brought under control at the earliest.
Taking notice of the incident, Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah asked authorities to use everything at their disposal to ensure that the situation is under control.
PML-N Vice President Maryam Nawaz prayed for the situation to get better.
