前言

During the past two years, all roads have been leading to Copenha-gen and the crucial UN climate convention meeting. That is part of the reason for the efforts China has made towardcurbing greenhouse gas emissions and China Daily's publishing Evolutionof Green China is of tremendous importance. The Chinese media have been working hard to endure the push foraction to combat climate change, and to preserve and improve the en-vironment. Media, such as China Daily, work to ensure these goals areadvanced by society at all levels, from that of ordinary people to those ofnational and international leadership. We are all greatly indebted to theirtireless work —— work such as that which has been collected in this enlight-ening collection of China Daily's comprehensive environmental reports.This conference will either prove to be a dead end, a delay, a detour or a gear-changing moment in human affairs.At stake is perhaps the most important international treaty sinceWorld War II —— one that can put more than 190 nations on a low-car-bon, resource-efficient Green Economy path that is necessary if the worldis to thrive, let alone survive, over the coming decades and century. Someare already writing off Copenhagen, but this is decidedly premature.The last two years has witnessed an explosion in the number of cre-ative and cost-effective options that, if pursued in whole or in part bygovernments, can make it possible to seal a scientifically credible deal.Many economies have actively embraced environmental investmentsnot as a burden, but rather as a key path for job creation and recoveryin the face of the worst economic crisis in a generation.Days before the G20 met in Pittsburgh, the UNEP and other parties,including HSBC, published an assessment as part of our Global GreenNew Deal initiative. It spotlighted the green components of nationalstimulus packages, ranging from accelerated funding for renewables tosmart grids and rapid rails. Among the seven countries studied in detail,the Republic of Korea's green component represents 79 percent of itsoverall planned stimulus. China's is 34 percent. Copenhagen offers an opportunity to accelerate these kinds of in-vestments. So it could be said to represent the biggest stimulus packageof them all.

章节摘录

插图：Hu also told world leaders China will seek to produce 15 percent of itsenergy from non-fossil fuel sources by 2020. Much of that will come fromrenewable energy and nuclear power. He said the nation also plans to battle climate change by planting moretrees and he committed to increase forested areas by 40 million hectares. China will also develop a greener, low-carbon economy, encourage re-cycling and tapping the potential of climate-friendly technologies.m But he insisted that, despite far-reaching social and economic improve-ments in recent decades, China is still a developing country. And he said it is well down the global rankings of per capita GDP, withimbalanced domestic development. "We have been faced with tough diffi-culties and we still have a long way to go toward modernization," Hu said. Despite its developing-nation status, he said China realizes the "toughnessand urgency" of the fight against global warming and the country has madegreat strides. "And we will continue our unshakable efforts in fighting climate change,"Hu said, while urging developed countries to make good on their Kyoto Pro-tocol promise to cut emissions by five percent of their 1990 levels. Hu said Copenhagen could be a milestone for the world while callingon developed countries to transfer technology and financial support to de-veloping countries. Experts said it was the first time that China's leader had described shift-ing China's policy away from energy intensity toward carbon management. It was also the first time China had announced its mid-term goal of miti-gating climate change, even though it had not yet added numbers."The pledge of a carbon intensity cut has been embedded with tremen-dous policy implications for China's future sustainable development," saysDaniel J. Dudek, chief economist with US-based Environmental Defense.Dudek says Hu went to New York with new commitments."These announcements should sweep away the canard that China is notwilling to reduce emissions," Dudek says.
