Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, September 28 (warmth from the reporter) In response to the so-called “List of facts on China’s environmental damage” posted on the US State Department website, the Foreign Ministry spokesman Foreign Ministry Wang Wenbin said on the 28th that it was another farce against China organized by the United States for political purposes. . The so-called “fact list” published by the United States is actually a list of lies.
Wang Wenbin said at the usual press conference that day that the lie would be cleared up by the hard facts. China’s achievements in fighting climate change are obvious to all. By the end of 2019, China’s carbon dioxide emissions per unit of GDP have been reduced by 48.1% compared to 2005, and non-fossil energy sources accounted for 15.3%, exceeding the action target 2020 climate change. Since 2000, a quarter of the world’s new green area has come from China, and China’s current ownership of new energy vehicles accounts for more than half the world. In the general debate of the 75th session of the UN General Assembly on September 22, President Xi Jinping announced that China will increase its determined contribution at the national level, adopt more powerful policies and measures, and strive to achieve its maximum emissions of carbon dioxide by 2030 and will strive for 2060. Achieved carbon neutrality years ago. China has removed more than 280,000 tonnes of ozone-depleting substances, representing more than half of the total removed in developing countries. China has already implemented the “Ambient Air Quality Standards” in 74 cities. The sky is not blue and everyone can see it. China has already eliminated artisanal and small-scale gold mining production processes. By the end of this year, it will also phase out the production, import and export of major mercury-added products subject to the Mercury Convention. China is one of the countries with the strictest legislation and enforcement on wildlife protection in the world. China has made important contributions to increase the development of the world’s forest resources, sustainable forest products and trade. Basically, China will achieve zero solid waste imports by the end of 2020, and the national rate of harmless treatment of urban garbage is close to 99%. Coastal cities have established garbage classification and “marine sanitation” mechanisms. The basis of the construction of the “Belt and Road” is green. We, together with relevant countries and international organizations, jointly launched the “Belt and Road” International Green Development Alliance and issued the “Belt and Road” green investment principles. China’s marine debris is at a low-medium level internationally and in a relatively controllable state. China has implemented the world’s strictest system to monitor the position of fishing vessels on the high seas, with “zero tolerance” cracking down on illegal activities and actively working with the international community to crack down on fishing activities. ” illegal, unreported and unregulated. ” China announced that it will share the hydrological information of the Lancang River throughout the year with the Mekong countries. The six Lancang-Mekong countries agreed to build an information exchange platform, strengthen joint research, and work together to meet challenges.
Wang Wenbin said: “In the face of a series of tangible environmental protection measures by China, the United States is constantly discrediting and attacking China, but what is the United States doing? We should ask the United States why it did not ratify the Protocol of Kyoto. “Withdrawing from the Paris Agreement? When will the United States commit to carbon neutrality? US per capita emissions are three times the world average and more than double that of China. They were once nearly five times that of China, and the cumulative emissions refer to China Should the United States be accountable to people in developing countries severely affected by climate change, especially people in the small island countries? The huge arrears of the United States in the Global Environment Facility and quotas due to the Conventions on Desertification and Climate Change When will it be possible? The United States exports a large amount of garbage to developing countries throughout the year. Should there be a saying? The United States owes the international community an explanation in this regard. “
Wang Wenbin said whoever is acting, whoever is speaking, whoever is making a contribution, whoever is upsetting the situation, people all over the world have an account. Facts have shown that the United States is the greatest destroyer of international environmental cooperation and that the United States is the greatest threat to the global environment. “We urge the United States to stop political manipulation and malicious slander, and do more to protect the global environment and make fewer problems.”
