Ecological building IN the drafting of the overall plan for Shenzhen’s development between 2016 and 2035, ecological building was listed as one of the five aspects that the city tries to realize its transition, together with regional cooperation, innovation, land supply and the protection of cultural relics. Shenzhen will address major environmental issues and solve prominent problems during the process of ecological building, build park clusters that rely on mountains and grasslands, and explore the integration of land and marine resources while protecting the marine environment.
