中国海拔最高县西藏双湖县生态搬迁记

　　Tsonyi County, southwest China's Tibet Autonomous Region, started the relocation of its second batch of residents on Tuesday, as part of the region's plan to improve people's living conditions and protect the fragile local ecosystem. With an average altitude of over 5,000 meters, Tsonyi County covers a total area of 120,000 square km and is part of the Changtang National Nature Reserve, China's biggest and highest nature reserve. Due to the high altitude and harsh environment, the county is not suitable for human habitation. The oxygen in the air is a mere 40 percent of that on the plain. Its winter lasts 10 months each year, with the lowest temperatures reaching minus 40 degrees Celsius. At around 7:40 a.m. Tuesday, more than 300 residents left their hometown in Doima Township of Tsonyi, China's highest county, moving nearly 1,000 km southward to their new home Singpori. Singpori is on the north bank of the Yarlung Zangbo River in the city of Shannan, located at an altitude of 3,600 meters. It is only some 10 km from the Lhasa airport. Four townships of the county will complete relocation by early August, and by then, all seven townships of Tsonyi, including the three that moved in 2019, will have completed relocation. Tibet relocated the first batch of 2,900 residents in Tsonyi to Singpori in 2019.

　　7月19日，西藏自治区开始实施全国海拔最高县双湖县第二批高海拔牧民生态搬迁。客车载着牧民驶离西藏那曲市双湖县多玛乡，前往位于山南市贡嘎县的森布日安置点。双湖县位于羌塘国家级自然保护区内，平均海拔5000多米，地处偏远，高寒缺氧，环境恶劣，当地牧民难以享受高质量的公共服务；且区域内草场正以每年3%至5%的速度退化。为破解人与自然和谐共生难题，筑牢国家生态安全屏障，西藏自治区于2019年开展了双湖县北部3个乡镇的高海拔生态搬迁。此次搬迁主要集中在该县南部4个乡镇，将在8月上旬完成搬迁。森布日安置点位于雅鲁藏布江北岸，海拔约3600米，距离拉萨市区60余公里，临近机场、铁路、高速公路，环境宜人，交通便利，区位优势明显。安置点内医院、学校、市场等一应俱全。双湖牧民新生活的画卷将在这里徐徐展开。
