이창훈 기후위기대응위원장, K-ESG 얼라이언스 특별 강연

(서울=연합뉴스) 장하나 기자 = 이창훈 국가기후위기대응위원장은 4일 "기후 위기 대응은 단순한 환경 이슈가 아닌 산업의 미래 국제경쟁력을 확보하기 위한 핵심과제"라며 "탄소 감축이 어려운 산업 분야를 위해 녹색 전환 지원사업을 본격 추진하고 녹색금융 및 전환금융 지원을 실질적으로 확대해 나가겠다"고 말했다.

이 위원장은 이날 서울 영등포구 FKI타워 콘퍼런스센터에서 한국경제인협회 주최로 열린 제15차 K-ESG(환경·사회·지배구조) 얼라이언스 회의에서 "일부 국가의 기후정책이 퇴조하고 있지만 기후정책의 추동력인 기후 위기는 오히려 심화하고 있어 이들 국가도 조만간 정책 기조를 변경할 수밖에 없을 것"이라며 이같이 밝혔다.

이 위원장은 이날 특별강연에서 이재명 정부의 2년차 기후 정책 핵심 방향으로 2035년 온실가스 감축목표의 이행 계획 수립 및 차질 없는 이행, 재생에너지 중심의 에너지전환 본격화 및 전력 부문 시장기능 강화, 기후적응정책 실효성 제고 및 지역의 대응 역량 강화 등을 제시했다.

김윤 K-ESG 얼라이언스 의장은 "기후 위기 대응은 정부와 기업이 함께 뛰는 마라톤과 같다"며 "경제계도 적극적인 투자와 혁신을 통해 저탄소 생산공정 전환과 온실가스 감축에 힘을 보태겠다"고 밝혔다.

이어 "기업이 과감하게 투자하고 혁신할 수 있는 여건 조성이 중요하다"며 "전력망 등 기반 시설을 확충하고 새로운 기술과 투자가 시장에서 성과로 이어질 수 있도록 일관성과 예측 가능성을 갖춘 법·금융·시장 정책이 뒷받침돼야 한다"고 강조했다.
