Features: "The 2006 China Sustainable Development Strategy Report—Building a Resource-Saving and Environmentally Friendly Society" focuses on the theme of building a resource-saving and environment-friendly society, elaborates on the strategic significance of such a society for China's future development, and summarizes domestic and international experiences and lessons learned in building a resource-saving society and developing a circular economy. The report also introduces the concept of the "saving index" for the first time, providing a comprehensive evaluation of resource-saving and environmental protection conditions in major countries worldwide, highlighting the objective reality of China's extensive development compared to other nations. Additionally, it analyzes the changing trends of the saving index across the country and its 31 provinces, municipalities, and autonomous regions, presenting a comprehensive ranking of the saving index for each region. Based on these research findings, the report proposes the basic framework, development goals, and five supporting systems for China to build a resource-saving society, along with specific countermeasures and recommendations. Building on past strategic reports, the report employs the sustainable development indicator system designed by the Chinese Academy of Sciences to conduct a comprehensive assessment and data update of the sustainable development capacity of various regions in China. This book holds continuous reference and research value for decision-making bodies, administrative departments, legislative bodies, as well as relevant research institutions, universities, and the general public.
