On the morning of March 5, the “Ministerial channel” interview activity was held after the opening meeting of the fifth session of the 13th National People’s Congress, and some heads of relevant ministries and commissions of the State Council who attended the meeting as nonvoting delegates were invited to accept the interview through online video. He Lifeng, director of the national development and Reform Commission, said he was confident that carbon peak would be achieved by 2030 and carbon neutrality would be achieved by 2060. He Lifeng mentioned that a 450 million KW large-scale wind power photovoltaic base will be planned and built in deserts, Gobi and deserts, which is the largest scale plan in China’s history.

Reporter: Director He Lifeng, we know that domestic and foreign countries are very concerned about the implementation of the “double carbon” policy. What is the current situation? How to continue to promote?

He Lifeng: Thank you. Achieving carbon peak by 2030 and carbon neutralization by 2060 is a major strategic decision made by the Party Central Committee and the State Council based on national conditions.

First, this is a major event that we must do ourselves. China has a large population, little land and poor resources. We must solidly implement the new development concept, build a new development pattern and promote high-quality development. A very important thing is to promote the “carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals” work. At present, by promoting the “double carbon” work, first, it can create a lot of development opportunities and business opportunities, promote the development of emerging industries on a large scale, and promote the renewal and transformation of old communities on a large scale. These are business opportunities. Second, it can effectively promote the improvement of the living environment in all parts of the country, including rural and urban areas, and improve the quality of life and quality of life of urban and rural residents. Third, we can seek happiness for future generations and protect green mountains and rivers. This is the golden mountain and silver mountain in the future. China is a party to the Paris Agreement on climate change. We will do what we say and do what we promise. By Solidly Promoting the implementation of “double carbon”, we reflect the image of a responsible big country.
