Chu Mohan also said: "Environmental protection is a long-term battle, and we cannot relax at all. In the future, we will face more challenges, but as long as we unite as one, we will be able to overcome difficulties and make our city a model of harmonious coexistence between man and nature."

As the city develops, the problem of resource shortage becomes increasingly prominent, becoming a heavy stone in the hearts of Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan. In order to ensure the sustainable development of the city, they decided to formulate a comprehensive and effective resource management policy to rationally allocate and utilize resources, encourage resource recycling and reuse, and thus improve resource utilization efficiency.

Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan first convened experts from various fields in the city, including economists, engineers, environmentalists, etc., to form a resource management seminar group. They launched a heated and in-depth discussion in the conference room of the city government.

"We must conduct a comprehensive inventory and assessment of the city's resources to understand how many resources we have and how quickly they are being consumed," an economist said.

"That's right, and we also need to take into account the needs of different industries and residents and formulate a fair and reasonable distribution plan," added another expert.

Gu Qianning listened carefully to everyone's opinions and nodded in agreement from time to time: "We must not only ensure current needs, but also reserve sufficient resources for future development."

Chu Mohan continued: "Moreover, we need to encourage enterprises and residents to save resources and reduce waste through policy guidance."

After several days of discussion, a preliminary draft of the resource management policy was produced. Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan took the draft and went to every corner of the city to listen to the people's voices.

In a factory, workers sat together and expressed their concerns to Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan: "If resource allocation is too strict, will it affect our production progress?"

Gu Qianning patiently explained: "The purpose of the policy is not to restrict production, but to optimize resource allocation so that everyone can use resources more efficiently. For example, we will encourage you to adopt more advanced production technologies to reduce resource consumption."

Chu Mohan also said: "Moreover, the government will give corresponding rewards and support to enterprises that actively respond to policies and improve resource utilization efficiency."

After hearing this, the workers expressed their understanding and support.

In residential areas, residents raised questions about specific measures for resource recycling and reuse.

"How do we know what can be recycled and where to send it?" asked one resident.

Gu Qianning replied: "We will set up special recycling points in the community and arrange staff to provide guidance and publicity. At the same time, we will popularize knowledge about recycling through various channels."

Chu Mohan added: "We will also organize resource recycling activities regularly and commend and reward residents with outstanding performance."

After fully listening to the opinions of all parties, Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan revised and improved the draft resource management policy. Finally, a complete set of resource management policies was officially released.

The policy stipulates that water resources, energy, land resources, etc. are strictly allocated quantitatively. Different water quotas are set for industrial and residential water use according to actual needs and industry characteristics, and smart water meters are installed for monitoring. Water use exceeding the quota will be charged high fees, while the saved water resources can be traded on the market.

In terms of energy, we will implement tiered electricity and gas prices for enterprises and residents. We will encourage enterprises to adopt energy-saving equipment and technologies, and provide tax incentives and subsidies to enterprises with significant energy-saving effects. At the same time, we will vigorously promote new energy vehicles, build infrastructure such as charging piles, and provide car purchase subsidies to residents who purchase new energy vehicles.

The allocation of land resources pays more attention to planning and efficiency. The expansion of urban construction land is strictly controlled, and enterprises are encouraged to build multi-story factories and increase the land volume ratio. For idle land, the government has the right to reclaim and redistribute it.

In order to encourage resource recycling and reuse, the government has set up a special resource recycling fund. Enterprises and residents can receive corresponding financial rewards by sending recyclable resources to designated recycling points. At the same time, a number of resource recycling and reuse enterprises have been supported, and policy and financial support have been given to promote the development of the resource recycling industry.

In the early stages of the policy implementation, there was a lot of resistance. In order to pursue short-term interests, some companies tried to evade resource allocation restrictions and used resources illegally. Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan took decisive measures to strengthen law enforcement and impose severe penalties on companies that violated the rules.

"The resource management policy is for the long-term development of the city and no one can violate it." Gu Qianning said seriously during an enforcement operation.

Chu Mohan also said: "We want everyone to understand that only by rationally utilizing resources can the city develop sustainably and everyone's interests be protected."

At the same time, in order to improve the enthusiasm of enterprises and residents, Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan organized a series of publicity and training activities. They invited experts to hold resource management lectures and teach enterprises and residents how to save resources and recycle and reuse resources.

In a school, Gu Qianning personally taught a resource management class to the students.

"Students, every drop of water and every kilowatt-hour of electricity in our lives is hard-earned, and we must cherish them. For example, tighten the faucet when washing hands, and turn off the lights when leaving the room." Gu Qianning explained vividly.

The students listened with great interest and expressed their willingness to practice the concept of saving resources in their lives.

Chu Mohan went into enterprises and discussed resource conservation and recycling solutions with their managers.

"We can reduce the waste of raw materials by optimizing the production process, and at the same time recycle the waste generated in the production process and turn waste into treasure." Chu Mohan made a suggestion.

Under the guidance and encouragement of the government, more and more enterprises have taken the initiative to take measures to save resources. A textile factory invested in advanced sewage treatment equipment to achieve the recycling of water resources, which not only reduced costs but also reduced pollution to the environment. A machinery factory reprocessed the scraps in the production process and made new parts, improving resource utilization.

Residents also actively responded to the resource management policy. In the community, residents spontaneously organized resource conservation groups to monitor each other's water and electricity usage. Some residents transformed waste items at home into exquisite decorations, which not only saved resources but also added fun to life.

One resident said happily: "I used to think these waste items were useless, but now through transformation and recycling, they are not only environmentally friendly, but also create value."

Over time, resource management policies have achieved remarkable results. The city's water consumption has been greatly reduced, energy efficiency has been significantly improved, and land resources have been used more rationally. The resource recycling and reuse industry has gradually grown and become a new growth point for the city's economy.

However, Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan were not satisfied with the status quo. They knew that resource management was a dynamic process that required constant adjustment and improvement.

At a resource management work meeting, Gu Qianning said: "We must pay close attention to the development of science and technology and continuously introduce new resource management technologies and methods. For example, a new type of energy-saving material has recently appeared, and we can consider promoting its application in urban construction."

Chu Mohan went on to say: "At the same time, we must strengthen exchanges and cooperation with other cities and learn from their advanced experiences."
