Characterized by high-tech, high efficiency, and high quality, new quality of productive forces represent an advanced form of productive forces aligned with the new development philosophy. They not only open a new path for the green transformation of productive forces but also empower ecological civilization construction in different dimensions and paths. From the perspective of development mode, new quality productive forces can promote the green transformation of industrial structure, technological tools, and production relations, cultivate new growth drivers through green development, and contribute to ecological civilization construction. From the perspective of governance methods, new quality productive forces can promote the integration of green technologies and digital intelligence technologies into ecological governance, improve the construction of new infrastructure, and promote the formation of a modern infrastructure system with system resilience, environmental adaptability, and technological advancement. They can help optimize the ecological governance team and governance structure, and enhance the modernization level of the ecological governance system and governance capacity. From the perspective of lifestyle, new quality productive forces can drive the systematic connection between green industries and lifestyles by optimizing the spatial structure of lifestyles, promote the green transformation of lifestyles, and empower ecological civilization construction by fostering public green concepts and shaping green behaviors. In summary, new quality productive forces reshape nature through green industries, govern nature through green technologies, and treat nature kindly through green lifestyles, thereby promoting modernization featuring harmonious coexistence between humans and nature and advancing high-quality development of socialist ecological civilization.
