Xi underscores importance of human-nature relationship

"If we do not fail nature, nature shall never fail us," Xi said.

He particularly mentioned the Yellow River, saying that a well-harnessed Yellow River is a millennia-long aspiration of the Chinese people. He recalled his visits to all nine provinces and autonomous regions on the upper, middle and lower streams of the river.

Xi also mentioned the Yangtze River, Qinghai Lake, Yarlung Zangbo River, the South-North Water Diversion, the Saihanba forest, as well as the northward trek and homecoming of elephants in Yunnan province, and the migration and return of Tibetan antelopes to illustrate the importance of a harmonious human-nature relationship.
