The publicity department of Baise city introduces that in recent years, Baise has vigorously advanced the modernization of harmonious coexistence between humans and nature. In 2024, Baise was approved as Guangxi’s sole national pilot for deepening climate-resilient city construction and was also included in the second batch of national pilot projects for new pollutant management. For multiple consecutive years, 14 national and 11 regional surface water monitoring sections in the city have maintained a 100% water quality compliance rate, ranking Baise 9th nationally in surface water quality. In 2024, the city’s air quality excellent rate reached 98.4%.
With the continuous improvement of Baise’s ecological environment, rare animals such as leopard cats and Hainan partridges have been frequently spotted in the Chengbi River Nature Reserve. The Chinese merganser, known as the “panda of birds”, has overwintered there for over a decade.
Recently, the Oriental white stork, a nationally protected first-class wildlife species, was observed for the first time in Sihuang Town, Youjiang District. Last year, Baise also shared its achievements from the Guangxi Bangliang Gibbon National Nature Reserve and Guangxi Yachang Orchid National Nature Reserve with China’s Ministry of Ecology and Environment.
Dr. Wan Rong, an associate researcher at China Agricultural University, noted that Baise possesses unique ecological advantages. Moving forward, the city could focus on industries like health foods and medicinal-edible resources to build a full-chain consumer ecosystem spanning “ecological resources – deep processing – brand marketing”, leveraging its “green potential” to drive “economic prosperity”.
