中新网安塔利亚11月11日电 (王高飞 徐峻杰 林卓玮)“中国的能源转型成就在全球是独一份的。”《联合国气候变化框架公约》第三十一次缔约方大会(COP31)正在土耳其安塔利亚召开,当地时间 11 月 10 日上午,在COP31中国角举办的“生态文明与美丽中国实践” 边会上,《联合国气候变化框架公约》秘书处执行秘书西蒙·斯蒂尔(Simon Stiell)发表致辞,点赞中国气候行动,呼吁国际社会坚持多边合作,推动更加迅速、公平的清洁能源转型。
本次边会由习近平生态文明思想研究中心、中国新闻社主办,生态环境部环境与经济政策研究中心、中国新闻网协办。这是中国新闻社“新闻会客厅”首次在土耳其举办系列活动。
西蒙·斯蒂尔首先感谢中方举办本次活动,为各国搭建气候交流互鉴的平台。他表示,中国长期坚定维护多边主义,持续参与联合国整体事业,特别是联合国应对气候变化相关工作,有力推动全球气候治理向前推进。
“中国的能源转型成就在全球是独一份的。”结合多次访华见闻,斯蒂尔对中国的绿色转型实践给予高度评价。
他说,中国通过南南合作,助力不少发展中国家发展清洁能源、提升气候韧性。此外,其能源转型不仅在国内创造就业、拉动经济增长、保障能源安全,还带动全球清洁能源技术创新,推动可再生能源成本持续下降。
他特别谈及,中方提出将力争在新的国家自主贡献目标基础上,争取更好成果。在他看来,这展现出充分的远见。中国在绿色转型上每迈出一步,都将带动全球清洁能源转型提速,既造福本国民众,也惠及世界。
西蒙·斯蒂尔说,得益于国际协同行动,全球预估温升已经从远超4℃回落至2.6℃左右,气候适应议题也从议程边缘走向主流,一场全球性的能源革命正在加速推进。
但他同时强调,全球清洁能源转型仍需进一步提速,并且必须兼顾公平。没有任何一个国家能独自应对气候危机,各国应当持续交流互鉴,把对话共识转化为务实合作。
在他看来,各国国情不同,转型路径各具特色,但目标一致。面对日趋严峻的气候风险,全球气候行动应恪守“共同但有区别的责任”和“各自能力”原则,在相互尊重、彼此理解的基础上凝聚更大合力。

The Water Resources Department stated that since the forward-looking water environment construction was promoted in 2017, 2.63 million tons of water sources have been added every day. From June to October this year, 200 million tons of water were dispatched across regions through the "String of Pearls" project, and combined with water conservation and desilting measures, it effectively improved the resilience of Taiwan's water supply. It is expected that an additional 1.2 million tons of water will be added daily in 2031.
Beijing launched an orange alert for heavy air pollution at 0:00 on the 11th. Affected by the triple factors of circulation, wind field and water vapor, the atmospheric diffusion conditions in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and surrounding areas have deteriorated. It is expected that regional air pollution will occur from the 11th to the 14th, with some areas reaching severe pollution levels.
The 31st Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change opened in Antalya, Türkiye. Simon Steele, Executive Secretary of the Secretariat, said in his opening speech that global climate action has entered the implementation stage, and COP31 must introduce implementable plans, focusing on promoting funding implementation, renewable energy, methane emission reduction and other issues.

In order to improve air quality and promote the electrification of transportation vehicles, the Ministry of Environment announced that the "Air Pollutant Reduction Subsidy Measures for Replacement of Old Vehicles with New Vehicles" will be extended until the end of 2030. Retiring old vehicles that are more than 10 years old will receive a basic air pollution subsidy of 1,000 yuan for motorcycles, 2,000 yuan for small passenger trucks, and 30,000 yuan for large passenger trucks.
In the next three days (November 12 to 14), central and eastern my country will be in an intermittent period of cold air, and atmospheric diffusion conditions will deteriorate. There will be fog and haze in North China, Huanghuai, Northeast China, Sichuan Basin and other areas, with local visibility less than 50 meters. The public must pay attention to safety when traveling.

World leaders arrived on Wednesday for the Cop31 UN climate change conference in Turkey, aiming to agree on curbing global warming following a year of severe climate disasters, though past promises and missing leaders raise doubts.
