Abstract: The Communist Party of China has undergone a transformative shift from industrial-era environmental protection concepts to an ecological civilization paradigm,articulating the goal of achieving Chinese modernization through a new ecological development path.This has crystallized into Xi Jinping Thought on Ecological Civilization,which incorporates a distinctive ecological perspective.Guided by the scientific methodology of "Two Integrations" (integrating the basic tenets of Marxism with China's specific realities and fine traditional culture),this thought upholds the principle of "harmonious coexistence between humanity and nature" and introduces three groundbreaking concepts:"community of life","community of life between humanity and nature",and "community of life on Earth".Upon these foundations,some original concepts,such as "lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets",are put forward,marking a revolutionary advancement in global ecological civilization thinking.Chinese modernization adheres to universal characteristics of modernization while adapting development objectives,approaches,and processes to China's specific national conditions.The new form of human civilization created through Chinese modernization manifests in three dimensions:it establishes a socialist civilization transcending capitalist civilization,develops an ecological civilization representing the future direction of human development,and cultivates a harmonious coexistence worldview embodying humanity's collective aspiration.

Key words: Chinese modernization, Xi Jinping Thought on Ecological Civilization, "Two Integrations", new form of human civilization
