White paper reveals China's principles on tackling climate change
BEIJING -- China has formulated new principles on tackling climate change and is contributing its solutions to global climate governance, according to a white paper released Wednesday by the State Council Information Office.
In tackling climate change, China advocates building a strong sense of common community, actively implements the new development philosophy and takes a people-centered approach, said the white paper titled "Responding to Climate Change: China's Policies and Actions."
Regarding the goal of achieving carbon neutrality as a must-do to relieve the resource and environment constraints, the country has incorporated it into its overall economic and social development, adopting a holistic approach and balancing the relationships between economic growth and emissions reduction, the white paper said.
China sees pollution prevention and control as an integral part of the response to climate change, striving to synergize the reduction of pollution and carbon emissions through structural adjustment, optimized configuration, policy synergy and innovative mechanisms, it said.
