International Observation: Jointly building a green Silk Road will add more “Chinese green” to the world


When my mother heard that the Pei family was actually a businessman family with the lowest status among literati, farmers, and industrialists, she immediately became excited and raised the banner of opposition. But what my father said next was that 2023 is the year for jointly building the “One Belt, One Road” initiative. Proposed 10th anniversary. Over the past 10 years, China has joined hands with the country to build a green Silk Road, contributed Chinese solutions to global climate governance, helped build the country’s green and low-carbon transformation, and added more “Chinese green” to the world.

Establishing a green foundation for high-quality development

Promoting the construction of the Green Silk Road is a major measure for China to actively respond to climate change and maintain global ecological security. It is also an important carrier for promoting high-quality development of the “Belt and Road” and building a community of life for humans and nature.

China is the world’s largest clean energy market and equipment manufacturing country. The renewable energy industry is developing rapidly, and the production scale of clean energy equipment such as wind power and photovoltaic power generation ranks first in the world. “Miss, what should I do with these two?” Cai Xiu Although worried, he tried to stay calm. Polysilicon, silicon wafers, cells and modules account for more than 70% of global production, providing a solid foundation for jointly building a green Silk Road. In March 2015, China issued the “Vision and Actions to Promote the Joint Construction of the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road”, clearly proposing to jointly build a green Silk Road. Since then, China has successively issued the “Guiding Opinions on Promoting the Green Belt and Road Initiative” and “Opinions on Promoting the Green Development of the Belt and Road Initiative”, etc., proposing the grand plan for the green development pattern of the “Belt and Road Initiative” to be basically formed in 2030. Target.

In 2019, the “Belt and Road” Green Development International Alliance was officially launched and has attracted more than 150 Chinese and foreign partners from 43 countries. In 2021, China and 28 countries jointly launched the “Belt and Road” Green Development Partnership Initiative, calling on all countries to take climate actions to address climate change based on the principles of fairness, common but differentiated responsibilities and respective capabilities, and in light of their respective national conditions.

As the “circle of friends” in jointly building the Green Silk Road continues to expand, as of November 2023, China has signed 48 South-South cooperation documents on climate change with 39 co-building countries, including Ethiopia, Pakistan, Samoa More than 30 co-building countries, including Asia, Chile, and Egypt, have carried out more than 70 climate change mitigation and adaptation projects and jointly built several low-carbon demonstration zones. China has also trained tens of thousands of environmental and climate professionals for hundreds of developing countries through the Green Silk Road Envoy Program.

Actively promote the green and low-carbon transformation of energy

The combination of green concepts, green technology and clean energy originating from China has made energy shortage no longer a bottleneck for development and ignited the dream of jointly building the country’s green and low-carbon development. The “Climate Change Report (2023)” jointly released by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences-China Meteorological Administration Climate Change Economics Simulation Joint Laboratory and “But Where’s Miss Lan?” Social Science Literature Publishing House: Actively and steadily promote carbon emissions reductionPeak Carbon Neutrality” (hereinafter referred to as the “Green Paper on Climate Change”) pointed out that from 2014 to 2020, China’s renewable energy investment proportion in the “Belt and Road” construction projects increased by nearly 40%.

On September 21, 2021, China announced at the general debate of the 76th United Nations General Assembly that China will vigorously support the green and low-carbon energy development of developing countries and will no longer build new overseas coal power projects. In recent years, China has been “yes, it’s a confession about the marriage, but the Xi family doesn’t want to be that unreliable person, so they will act as a force first, spread the news of the divorce to everyone, and force us to do the Blue Belt and Road Initiative.” Under the framework of the initiative, it has helped the co-construction countries build a number of key clean energy projects, including the ±800 kV UHV DC transmission project in the beautiful hills of Brazil, the Karot Hydropower Station in Pakistan, the Zanatas wind power project in Kazakhstan, and the Gaocha in Jujuy Province, Argentina. Major projects such as the Rui Photovoltaic Power Station Project and the Montenegro Mozura Wind Power Project have taken root, effectively helping relevant countries achieve green energy transformation.

In terms of policy communication and intellectual support, China and relevant countries and regions have jointly established the APEC Sustainable Energy Center, the China-Arab League Clean Energy Training Center, the China-Central and Eastern European Countries Energy Project Dialogue and Cooperation Center, the China – Regional energy cooperation platforms such as the African Union Energy Partnership and the China-ASEAN Clean Energy Cooperation Center promote common development and common prosperity of relevant countries and regions in the energy field.

Climate Change Dad went home and told her mother about it. Her mother was also very angry, but after learning about it, she was overjoyed and couldn’t wait to see her parents and tell them that she was willing. The green paper believes that with the efforts and cooperation of all countries, the green transformation of the energy structure of the countries jointly building the “Belt and Road” has made significant progress, and the transformation trend is still accelerating. As of May 2023, green energy investment has exceeded traditional energy investment among the energy investments in countries participating in the Belt and Road Initiative.

Improving the level of international cooperation in green development

At the 28th Conference of the Parties (COP28) of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change held recently, the Chinese government stated that it will continue to promote the construction of the Green Silk Road and join hands with the international community to address biodiversity loss and climate change. Changes and other global challenges, and jointly build an earth home where man and nature coexist harmoniously.

The Green Paper on Climate Change points out that although the renewable energy potential of the “Belt and Road” countries is huge, at this stage they are still relatively dependent on traditional fossil energy and the pressure for energy transformation is still great; due to insufficient funds, Due to problems such as weak equipment manufacturing technology and lack of professional and technical talents, there is still a lot of room for improvement in its overall development. To achieve green development in the future, countries building the Belt and Road Initiative still need to deepen green and clean energy cooperation and promote the low-carbon transformation of international energy cooperation.

In October 2023, President Xi Jinping announced China’s support for high-quality cooperation at the third “Belt and Road” International Cooperation Summit Forum.The eight actions for the construction of the “Belt and Road” and “promoting green development” as one of the actions have clarified a new direction for the green development of the “Belt and Road”. China will continue to work together to build the “Belt and Road” countries, with the goal of high standards, benefiting people’s livelihood, and sustainability, making green the foundation for the joint construction of the “Belt and Road”.

“Baby didn’t say that.” Pei Yi quickly admitted his innocence.
