International people: China’s green transformation provides experience to the world

Recently, the "China Corner" of the 31st Conference of the Parties (COP31) of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change held a side event on "China's Carbon Peak and the Road to Carbon Neutrality". Government officials from the United Nations and various countries who attended the meeting spoke highly of China's positive progress in implementing its "dual carbon" goals and promoting green and low-carbon transformation. They believed that China's practice of transforming national climate goals into local concrete actions and promoting industrial transformation with green technology innovation has provided important reference for countries around the world.

Mohammad Taimoor, Director of Implementation Coordination of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Secretariat, said that China has shown great determination in the green transformation of industries and has promoted the implementation of climate goals through sound policies and market mechanisms.

Mohammad Taimoor, Director of Implementation Coordination of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Secretariat: China provides a useful example of how to translate national-level climate ambitions into local actions. One important aspect is to expand the industry coverage of the national carbon emissions trading market to include power generation, steel, cement and aluminum smelting industries.

Participants said that China's green development practices provide experiences and paths that countries around the world can learn from.
