Van Yen district pays great attention to environmental protection

Sunday, November 28, 2021

YBO - Economic development as well as industrial and handicraft activities and agricultural modernisation have become one of the reasons behind environmental pollution.

Officers and soldiers based in Van Yen actively engage in cleaning up the environment in the “Saturday with locals” event.

Recognising the problem, the Party Organisation and administration of Van Yen district in Yen Bai province have issued specific policies on environmental protection, including persuading local production facilities and businesses to sign commitments on ensuring environmental sanitation during their operations.

By signing the commitments, dozens of businesses have pledged to protect environmental safety in their production, processing sites and material areas.

The criteria on environmental protection has become one of the important indicators in the evaluation and ranking of communes and towns as well as villages and households, and the foundation for the consideration of cultural facility, village and family titles.

Chairman of the People’s Committee of Van Yen district Ha Duc Anh said that the district has given drastic directions to production facilities, sectors, organisations, localities and businesses to ensure environmental sanitation without any violation. Particularly, as this is an important factor deciding the success of the new-style rural area building, it has received great attention, he stressed.

Currently, agro-forestry processing facilities in the locality have committed to strictly implement environmental protection measures, while in crowded rural and urban residential areas, rubbish is collected, sorted and treated well.

Some creative solutions have been applied in Van Yen’s rural areas, including rubbish holes in family gardens. Each family is guided to dig a 60cm-wide and 80cm-deep hole with a cover to store organic trash and make natural fertilizer for farming.

Every 2-3 months when the whole is full, it is filled with soil for farming trees above. Other kinds of inorganic waste will be gathered in a concentrated site.

Thanks to this method, the environmental pollution and littering in Van Yen has been reduced considerably. This has become a model for other localities in environmental protection and new-style rural area building.
