What do carbon peak and carbon neutrality mean?

Carbon peaking refers to my country’s commitment that carbon dioxide emissions will no longer increase before 2030 and will gradually decrease after reaching the peak.

Carbon neutrality means that enterprises, groups or individuals measure the total amount of greenhouse gas emissions produced directly or indirectly within a certain period of time, and then offset their own emissions through afforestation, energy conservation and emission reduction, etc. Carbon dioxide emissions, achieving "zero emissions" of carbon dioxide.

Reasons for adopting carbon peaking and carbon neutrality:

Climate change is a global problem facing mankind. With the emission of carbon dioxide in various countries, , greenhouse gases are soaring, posing a threat to living systems. Against this background, countries around the world have adopted a global agreement to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and my country has therefore proposed carbon peak and carbon neutrality goals.

Secondly, we must ensure energy security. As the "world's factory", my country's industrial chain is increasingly improving, domestic manufacturing and processing capabilities are increasing day by day, and carbon emissions are rising at an accelerated pace. However, my country's oil and gas resources are relatively scarce, so developing a low-carbon economy and reshaping the energy system are of great security significance.
