China has taken an active part in global environmental and climate governance. While promoting its own green development, China also shares its experience with the world and provides support for global green development.
It has put forward and is now implementing the Global Development Initiative; it has promoted the establishment of the Global Clean Energy Cooperation Partnership; it was among the first to issue the National Plan on Implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development; it has established the Kunming Biodiversity Fund; it has become the largest contributor to the core budget of the Convention on Biological Diversity and its Protocols.
The list goes on. In joining hands to tackle environmental challenges and promote global sustainable development, China has always been a firm doer of deeds. Dr. Bruno Oberle, Director General of the International Union for Conservation of Nature, lauded China for sharing the concept of ecological civilization, which is yet another contribution that China has made to the world.
Ecological conservation, a timeless theme of human civilization, points the right way forward. Looking ahead, a China that commits to green modernization will provide more opportunities for the world and make greater contribution to the progress of all mankind.
