Abstract

Wumeng mountainous area is one of the 14 centralized and contiguous poverty areas in China. It covers two Chinese key ecological functional areas, including the forest and biodiversity ecological function area in Sichuan and Yunnan and the karst rocky desertification controlling ecological function area in Guangxi, Guizhou and Yunnan Province. Its economic development is seriously lagged behind and it is important to protect its biodiversity. The task to prevent rock desertification prevention is very arduous. To achieve the balance of poverty and ecological protection and promote regional sustainable development is facing severe challenges. Ecological civilization construction pays attention to respecting for nature, conforming to nature and protecting nature. It also attaches importance to institutional innovation and development. It can fully explore the region's advantages and characteristics, which is the strategic choice for the sustainable development of Wumeng mountainous area. It can promote the transformation of the green mountains and water into the mountain with wealth. It can effectively coordinate the relationship between the rapid development of social and economic needs and the restoration of fragile ecological priority. The ecological civilization construction of Wumeng mountainous area must actively promote the industrial and mining ecological transformation and upgrading. And it should actively develop the characteristics of fruit industry, ecological agriculture and animal husbandry, ecological tourism and cultural industries. It should speed up the process of transforming the advantage of resources into economic advantage. Major projects of ecological protection and restoration , poverty alleviation funds and supporting policies should be used to the Wumeng mountainous area. Especially, they should be spent on the key ecological functional areas, ecological sensitive and ecological fragile areas, the protection and recovery of rivers.
