Author:Ecological environment Time:2022.06.16
As soon as the fingers wave, the China Environment and Development International Cooperation Committee (hereinafter referred to as the National Union) has gone through 30 years.
In the past 30 years, the National Federation has carried out research and put forward policy suggestions on major issues in the fields of China and the global environment and development, and has become an important testimony of historic, turning, and overall changes in China's ecological environmental protection.
In the post -epidemic era, the global economy has recovered, and it is facing severe challenges such as climate change, loss of biodiversity, and intensified desertification. The theme of the 2022 Annual Conference of the National League will organize sub -forums to explore issues such as "building an inclusive green and low -carbon economy", focusing on topics such as the construction of the Green Silk Road and the advancement of climate governance. Effective path for development.
Economic growth, energy security and coordinated advancement of climate change
A latest report from the UN Intergovernmental Climate Change Special Committee (IPCC) shows that the impact of climate change on human ecology and economy is constantly being upgraded, and the world is urgently needed to transform green low -carbon to deal with climate crisis. However, it is accompanied by climate change. The new crown pneumonia's epidemic is repeated, and the international situation is turbulent, which has led to the tight energy supply worldwide, high inflation, and disturbing the industrial chain and supply chain.
Under the complicated international community, Zou Yan, a special consultant of the National Federation, chief executive officer of the Energy Foundation and President of China, believes that the steady growth at this stage is the most important, controllable, and most effective driving force. Connect the short -term stable growth, employment goals and long -term green low -carbon development goals. "The process of climate governance cannot be suspended. Climate change, economic downturn, and energy security are not contradictory. The overlapping point lies in energy transformation." Zou Yan said.
Xie Zhenhua, the vice chairman of the National Association and the special envoy of China Climate Change, also held this view. He believes that at present it is necessary to maintain the strategic determination of green and low -carbon development, and to accelerate green transformation by scientific and technological innovation, solve temporary difficulties and long -term target problems in large systems, and development of clean energy is to ensure energy security and slow climate change. , To promote economic recovery.
"With the advancement of technology, the economy, reliability and acquisition of renewable energy such as wind energy and solar geothermal energy are also continuously improved, which can increasingly meet the needs of ensuring energy and safety. In addition, the employment effect of renewable energy investment also comes Usually higher than traditional energy, "Xie Zhenhua pointed out.
So how should China's energy transformation look for directions? "The stock can be understood as the existing traditional energy sources already occupy a certain proportion, and it must be stable. But in incremental, it also needs to further stimulate the potential of new energy." Deputy Director Liu Shijin believes that it is necessary to grasp the relationship between stock and increase. Stabilizing the needs of economic growth stabilized, and at the same time, technological innovation should also be promoted to realize the green transformation of energy structure and production methods.
Du Xiangzhang, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and the former vice president of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, believes that the "double carbon" goal makes Chinese energy more secure: "Gradually shifted from clean and efficient use of fossil energy to non -stone energy, especially renewable energy, but the use of renewable energy does not use the failure of renewable energy. Affected by international geographical politics, it can be controlled by itself, which makes Chinese energy more independent and safer. "
Make the background color of the "Belt and Road" green
Although the development of energy green and low -carbon has become a global consensus, under the complex situation of the current energy transformation, energy security, energy, and other issues, the close cooperation and joint response of the international community have become particularly important.
Portsta, chairman of the board of directors of the Climate Foundation, founder of the US Progressive Center and chairman of the board of directors, said that countries around the world must take equality, sharing, and cooperation as the "armrest" for moving forward. Under this premise, the international community can further promote innovation and enhance transparency. Abandoning disputes and differences to strengthen cooperation with climatic goals, and the "Belt and Road" initiative provides possibilities for this international cooperation.
"'Belt and Road" initiative is a very imaginative initiative to help various countries invest in infrastructure. At present, the past and old economic investment are unreasonable. We should turn to tomorrow's and future economy. The 'Belt and Road' initiative can help this transformation. "Said Steller, member of the National League, co -chairman of the Alliance, President and CEO of Besos Earth Fund.
In fact, under the trend of global carbon neutrality, promoting the "Belt and Road" energy green and low -carbon development has important strategic value and practical significance for co -construction countries to respond to climate crisis and achieve sustainable development. Zhang Jianyu, deputy leader of the National Union's special policy research project and the executive dean of the "Belt and Road" Green Development International Institute, said that from the perspective of the development of the "Belt and Road" in green " Cooperation is not one -way, but a process of common creation.
"In fact, the contradiction between the" Belt and Road "country facing different needs, different infrastructure and future development vision in the future, can cooperate with China's industrial structure and industrial capabilities to create innovative -oriented new energy supply technologies Mode and method, "Zhang Jianyu said.
In addition, Wu Huimin, managing director and head of the "Belt and Road" Research Center, believes that in the process of industrialization and urbanization, green finance has not only become an important tool for supporting green transformation, but also helps to help the “Belt and Road”. The recovery after the state has provided solutions and ideas.
NBS mainstream efforts
At the fifteenth meeting of the Convention on the Convention on Biological Diversity, the "Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) was included in the Kunming Declaration. In recent years, NBS has gradually widely recognized the international community, and has become an important way to deal with climate change, disaster prevention and mitigation, economic and social development.
"Climate change is an important driving factor for the loss of biological diversity, and the destruction of biodiversity and weaken the ability to slow down climate change and reduce the impact of extreme climate. Under this dual relationship, any climate action that ignores biodiversity is dealing with At the same time as a crisis, it is also possible to put human society in another crisis. "Zhang Jieqing, director of the China Conservation Association (NRDC) China, believes that NBS can effectively solve the dual crisis of climate and biological diversity. It is of great significance for mainstreamization.
NBS can provide solutions in responding to global challenges, especially in response to biodiversity and climate change challenges. However, in order to make NBS mainstream, there is a need for evaluation of ecological economic benefits.
Ouyang Zhiyun, the leader of the National Federation based on the natural solution value evaluation of the Chinese and director of the Ecological and Environment Research Center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, pointed out that China has developed a wide range of ecosystem product product (GEP) indicators in recent years. Based on the function of services, the value of the general economics of accounting ecosystem products and services. At present, GEP accounting has been carried out in Guizhou, Qinghai, Hainan, Inner Mongolia and other places.
"Ecological system service function evaluation will become the bridge of human understanding of nature and ecosystems in economic decision -making." Ouyang Zhiyun believes that the relationship between people and nature in harmony and coordination and development of people must answer several keys Question: Where to protect, how to achieve a win -win situation for protection and development, and how to evaluate development and protect the results, these questions are exactly what the ecosystem service function evaluation can be answered.
In addition, NBS still needs to test the effectiveness of its various social challenges through a lot of practice, and carry out benefit evaluation based on specific standards to reflect the return effect to improve people's recognition of NBS.
Xing Lei, vice president of Beijing Zhenghe Hengji Waterfront Ecological Environmental Governance Co., Ltd., introduced that as one of the designers, Zhenghe Ecology introduced the NBS concept into the Lake Basin of the Lake Basin of the Erhai Lake Basin and the wetland construction project. The governance system has gradually restored Erhai Lake to a natural state of toughness, health, and continuity.
