BEIJING, Nov. 10 (Xinhua) — In its efforts to become a national or even an international model in advancing eco-civilization, southwest China’s Xizang Autonomous Region continues to prioritize eco-environmental conservation, follows a holistic approach to coordinating conservation and development, and pursues green and sustainable development, said a white paper issued by the State Council Information Office on Friday.
