"Carbon neutralize", what is it with teenagers?

The "double carbon" goal is closely related to the lives of each of us. Only by learning the knowledge of "double carbon" and improving the level of cognition can we better understand the national macro policy orientation, change their own lifestyle from the heart, and make their own contributions to the realization of the "double carbon" goal.

The "Double Carbon" story written to teenagers recently appeared in the Institute of Ecological Civilization, the Institute of Ecological Civilization of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, Chen Ying, and the "double carbon" popular science reading of teenagers. As builders in the future of carbon neutrality and world, the majority of teenagers are necessary to learn the scientific principles of climate change, and understand the ins and outs of the "double carbon" goal, achieve path and policy action. Overview of the book, there are the following characteristics:

First, the theoretical connection is reality, the system is comprehensive, and the main line is clear. As a popular science worker for teenagers, I often suffer from no appropriate reference books. I need to find information and sort out a large amount of scattered information. The author of this book not only elaborates the meaning and origin of the "double carbon" goal, the technology and path of achieving the "double carbon" goal, but also the "past life and present life", climate change and human activities, climate change of carbon dioxide, climate change and human activities, climate change to nature The influence of human society and the possible consequences of climate change are clearly expressed. Not only has the historical depth of climate change science, but also the knowledge breadth of knowledge in various fields related to the "double carbon" goals is very large. It has both basic knowledge and inspiration. Deeper layers and have strong readability.

The second is the combination of science and science, which has both professionalism and interest. Books related to "double carbon" on the market are generally combined with time nodes and relevant policies issued by the state. From the analysis of conceptual connotation, implementation path, scientific and technological innovation, and public consciousness, the expression method is relatively rigorous, and it is more suitable for the leadership of the government and enterprises. Cadres learn. The book is arranged according to the characteristics of young people's cognitive characteristics, and its idea is: "Carbon emissions come from various departments such as energy, industry, transportation, construction, waste treatment, etc. to achieve the" dual carbon "goal, and all departments need to work together to cooperate with emission reduction. Technological innovation is the key, policy guidance, and public participation is essential. " The book is in a graphic method, which not only spreads the spirit of scientific knowledge and unity and cooperation, but also shows the achievements of contemporary scientific achievements, which is conducive to the public to understand emerging technologies and stimulate scientific interest.

For example, in the introduction of how the construction department's emission reduction is explained, "To reduce the carbon emissions of the construction department, it is not only a matter of a department, but also involves other departments such as energy, industry, and transportation. All departments should cooperate with emission reduction." In particular, while people are pursuing a better life, it is recommended that "the total scale of the building cannot be expanded blindly, and it is necessary to vigorously reduce the use of fossil fuel and reduce direct discharge." The future application of emission reduction technology has also been explained in the future. For example, "roof greening can not only take away the calories in the house through the steaming effect, but also cool down, but also the rainwater collection and medium water recycling system can achieve water saving, environmental protection and recycling. The modeling system can perform energy consumption analysis and optimization in the architectural design link. The energy monitoring system can monitor and analyze the energy consumption situation at any time in the construction operation of the building, and provide advice to energy conservation and emission reduction. " The relevant content is not only introduced by text, but also with hand -painted illustrations, vivid image, helping youth digestion and understanding, which is conducive to the public better understanding science and falling in love with science.

The third is to cultivate the awareness of evidence and improve the scientific thinking ability of young people. The book supports scientific views with rigorous and informative data and analysis methods, and avoids misunderstandings. The essence of scientific education is to improve scientific literacy of adolescents. The "double carbon" goal contains multi -disciplinary knowledge, involving a wide range of fields. It has both natural sciences and social sciences. It is of great benefit to the cultivation of youth scientific literacy. This book provides us with a lively case in this regard. For example, in the guide part of the 4th lecture, the author first introduced the time and scope of the "forecast", "forecast", and "prediction" combined with the weather forecast, which shows that the future climate change estimation is relative to the benchmark period. The results of climate model simulation and considering many factors of nature and socio -economic factors. Will the "future temperature continue to rise in the future?" It is clearly explicitly using the global average temperature from 1850-1990 as the benchmark value of the global average temperature change since the industrial revolution. In the "How to change the marine climate in the future?" The middle is based on the latest climate model. Compared with 1995 to 2014, the global sea level will rise by 0.28 ~ 1.01 meters in 2100. "Why is the scope so large? This depends on what kind of measures we take to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. If there is no action, it will rise by 1 meter." It responds to the analysis method based on future assumptions for climate change estimates for climate change estimates. Essence The scientific point of view requires scientific and rigorous evidence support. Young people need to cultivate a sense of evidence from childhood to improve their scientific thinking ability.

Improving the understanding of the "double carbon" goal is an important part of the scientific quality of the public. Only when the whole society has good scientific literacy, scientific thinking and scientific skills can the whole society improve the facts of identifying evidence and the ability to speculate and decide, can they distinguish science and lies, and the public can also be important to affect society and daily life. The problem forms a scientific point of view.

The author hopes that teenagers will understand the "double carbon" goals and the scientific knowledge and related policies behind the "double carbon" goals.contribute.This is the author's expectation and the common goal of our whole society.(The author is the project leader and doctor of the Beijing Science Center Exchange and Cooperation Department)
