生态文明是民生工程的基础,而林业承担着保护森林和湿地,防止土壤沙漠化以及维护生物多样的重任,因而林业在生态工程中具有重要的作用,是民生工程的重要组成部分。山西作为一个以产煤为主的大省,其资源对我国的建设和人民生活做出了重要贡献,但一直以来,由于采煤的原因,对地表植被破坏较严重,短期内难于恢复,在这种情况下,山西的林业发展就有着重要意义。 Ecological civilization is the foundation of people’s livelihood projects, while forestry undertakes the important task of protecting forests and wetlands, preventing soil desertification and maintaining biological diversity. Therefore, forestry plays an important role in ecological engineering and is an important component of livelihood projects. Shanxi Province, as a major coal-producing province, has made significant contributions to the construction and livelihood of our country. However, as a result of coal mining, the destruction of surface vegetation is more serious and difficult to recover in the near future. Under such circumstances, the forestry development in Shanxi is of great significance.
