Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the challenges and pathways for the ecological industrialization of national key ecological function areas, emphasizing the need to convert ecological wealth into economic wealth to achieve common prosperity while addressing existing economic and social development issues in these regions [1][2]. Challenges Faced - National key ecological function areas are often located in ecologically sensitive regions, leading to strict controls on development activities and resource utilization, which results in local economic stagnation [2][3]. - Local governments may prioritize short-term gains from traditional industries over the long-term benefits of ecological industrialization due to economic pressures [2][3]. - The ecological protection goals are rigid, while economic development goals are flexible, creating conflicts in policy implementation [2][3]. - Many areas rely on traditional ecological industry models, such as eco-tourism and specialty agriculture, which have short supply chains and low added value, limiting long-term economic growth [2][3]. Policy Support Issues - There is insufficient policy support for ecological industrialization, with local execution often lacking, leading to ineffective policy outcomes [3][4]. - Existing ecological protection compensation mechanisms have low standards, failing to adequately cover opportunity costs for local economic development [3][4]. - Policies often do not consider regional differences in resource endowments and industrial characteristics, leading to mismatches in development needs [3][4]. Financial and Talent Constraints - Ecological industrialization requires long-term financial investment, but these regions typically have weak economic foundations and limited ability to attract social capital [4][7]. - The low compensation standards for ecological protection hinder local government and enterprise investment in ecological industries [4][7]. - There is a shortage of high-end talent in remote areas, which affects the ability to develop comprehensive professional capabilities necessary for ecological industrialization [4][7]. Community Involvement - Successful ecological industrialization relies on active community participation, but many areas see low engagement from local residents [4][8]. - The distribution of benefits from ecological projects often lacks fairness, leading to dissatisfaction among community members [4][8]. - Insufficient education and skills training for residents hinder their ability to adapt to new industry demands [4][8]. Pathways for High-Quality Advancement - Implement differentiated development strategies based on the natural resource endowments and ecological functions of each area to balance ecological protection and economic development [5][6]. - Promote diversified ecological industry development by integrating various sectors such as agriculture, tourism, and cultural creativity to enhance product value [6][7]. - Establish a targeted policy framework that considers regional characteristics and improves the ecological protection compensation mechanism [6][7]. - Develop funding mechanisms to enhance investment capabilities in ecological industries, including the establishment of special development funds [7][8]. - Create transparent benefit-sharing mechanisms to ensure local residents gain from ecological industrialization, enhancing their participation and support [8].
