Meet Wei Qin – the NPC deputy turning Yibin’s fragrant camphor forests into an eco-economic powerhouse! 🌱 This year, her decade-long green revolution has blossomed into a ¥1 billion+ industry, creating jobs while keeping Sichuan’s air crisp.
From luxury skincare essentials to carbon-neutral fertilizers, Wei’s team is rewriting the playbook on sustainable growth. "Camphor trees aren’t just scenery – they’re our partners in development," she told reporters ahead of China’s annual legislative sessions.
Young entrepreneurs are buzzing 🐝: over 200 startups now upcycle camphor byproducts into everything from artisanal paper to biodegradable packaging. With Beijing prioritizing high-quality development, Yibin’s model offers a blueprint for balancing ecology and economy – no compromise required.
