China has decided to carry out a nationwide campaign from 2004 to 2006 to promote resources saving awareness and practices in an all-encompassing way.

According to a circular recently issued by the General Office of the State Council, the campaign should be widely carried out to promote both saving and integrated utilization of resources including energy, raw materials, water and land.

Premier Wen Jiabao had earlier said that it is of great significance to carry out such a campaign in a persistent, deep and all-round way.

Publicity and education to that end should also be widely conducted and all saving policies and measures should be enforced as required, said Wen.

He also required integrating the campaign with the general tasks of economic and social development.
