Features: Ethnic regions are vast in territory, rich in resources, and exhibit complex and diverse natural conditions. They possess significant potential for economic development and serve as important bases for energy, raw materials, and key ecological environment remediation areas. These regions face numerous challenges, including economic development, ecological restoration, pollution prevention, and environmental remediation. Due to historical, geographical, cultural, economic, and environmental factors, it has become imperative for ethnic regions to establish a scientific development outlook and pursue a path of sustainable development!
