On August 15th, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin presided over a regular press conference. A reporter asked, today is China's first National Ecological Day. What is the significance of establishing National Ecological Day for China's participation in global ecological environment governance?
Wang Wenbin stated that today is the first National Ecological Day. This pioneering and iconic commemoration day reflects the important position of ecological civilization construction in the new era, the firm determination to comprehensively promote the construction of a beautiful China, and China's firm stance to actively participate in global environmental and climate governance and promote the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind.
For 18 years, this important concept has deeply rooted in people's hearts, not only promoting harmonious coexistence between Chinese people and nature, but also injecting Chinese wisdom into global environmental governance. China has firmly established and practiced the concept that green waters and mountains are as valuable as gold and silver. It has coordinated the management of mountains, rivers, forests, fields, lakes, grasslands, and sands, and achieved remarkable achievements in ecological construction and green development. What the world sees is a beautiful China with bluer skies, greener land, and clearer water.
Wang Wenbin stated that in the face of ecological and environmental challenges, humanity is a community with a shared future. China insists on being an advocate, activist, and leader in global environmental and climate governance. China is one of the countries with the fastest reduction in global energy intensity, the country that contributes the most to global ozone layer protection, and the world's largest country in energy conservation and utilization of new and renewable energy. China will complete the world's highest carbon emission intensity reduction in the shortest time in global history.
Wang Wenbin emphasized that the Earth is the common home of humanity and requires joint protection from all countries. China upholds the concept of "a community of life between humans and nature" and "a community of life on Earth", and is willing to work with all parties to implement the goal of national independent contribution, strengthen mitigation and adaptation efforts, and work together to build a clean and beautiful world.
