Abstract: Research findings made by DRC research team on “Survey on People’s Livelihood” in 2020 show that respondents’ satisfaction on ecological environment has improved remarkably. The proportion of respondents satisfied with domestic ecological environment and air quality in their living places has exceeded 80 percent, the highest survey record in recent years. As one of the three tough battles (which refer to preventing and defusing financial risks, targeted poverty alleviation and pollution prevention and control), the progress achieved in pollution prevention and control has been acknowledged by urban and rural respondents. The regional improvement of ecological environment has been extended to the whole country, laying a solid foundation for achieving the goal of building a moderately prosperous society in all respects. But it is also found from the interviewees that drinking water and rural living environment are not yet up to people’s expectations. To improve the ecological environment and meet people’s requirements on ecological environment, we must follow President Xi Jinping Thought on ecological civilization, put people in the first place and fight to win the battle of pollution prevention and control. We need to make efforts to refine water environment quality, forge ahead rural living environment, reduce pollution and carbon emission in a coordinated manner, and improve people’s sense of gains through cutting carbon emissions.
