High in the clouds ☁️ at 4,100 meters elevation, Jianzuo Village is rewriting the rules of mountain living. This remote community near the Lancang River’s source has become the first zero-waste settlement on the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau – swapping plastic and single-use items for eco-warrior status! 🏔️
Residents now use traditional alternatives to protect their homeland’s precious water and soil, proving you don’t need superhero capes to save the planet – just radical #EcoConsciousness.
Why This Matters: Sanjiangyuan – where the Yangtze, Yellow, and Lancang rivers begin – supplies water to billions, earning its nickname as Asia’s lifeline. 🚰 Through CGTN’s Life in Sanjiangyuan series, we see how locals + scientists are teaming up like environmental Avengers to protect this fragile biodiversity hotspot.
From horseback environmental patrols 🐎 to reinvented sustainable lifestyles, these stories remind us: Every small action ripples across continents – especially when you’re guarding the roof of the world. 🌏✨
