China's double carbon target is carbon dioxide emissions.

China's double carbon target is zero carbon dioxide emission.

The double-carbon target refers to China's goal of coping with climate change, that is, achieving the peak of carbon dioxide emission and zero carbon neutrality. There are the following measures to reduce carbon emissions:

1. Energy saving: improve energy utilization efficiency and reduce energy waste. For example, use efficient and energy-saving electrical appliances and lighting equipment, reasonably control indoor temperature, and turn off unnecessary electrical equipment.

2. Adopt clean energy: actively promote and use renewable energy, such as solar energy, wind energy and hydropower. Choose clean energy suppliers, install solar panels or participate in community energy projects.

3. Choose a low-carbon transportation mode: reduce the use of personal cars, and try to choose public transportation, walking, cycling or enjoying travel. For long-distance travel, you can consider taking high-speed rail or flights with more flights.

4. Waste reduction and recycling: Reduce the use of disposable goods and try to choose renewable resources and recyclable materials. Actively participate in garbage sorting and recycling to reduce the negative impact of landfill and incineration on the environment.

5. Afforestation and forest protection: Trees absorb carbon dioxide through photosynthesis and store it in trees and soil. Large-scale afforestation is helpful to reduce the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and alleviate climate change.

6. Promote a sustainable lifestyle: adopt a sustainable lifestyle, such as reducing the carbon footprint of travel, buying environmentally friendly products and reducing water consumption. Encourage and influence people around you to participate in the practice of sustainable development.

Benefits of afforestation

1. Carbon absorption and emission reduction: trees absorb carbon dioxide through photosynthesis and store it in trees and soil. Large-scale afforestation is helpful to reduce the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and alleviate climate change.

2. Protect soil and water sources: The roots of trees help to fix soil and prevent soil erosion and desertification. Afforestation can also protect water sources, provide forest water conservation function, reduce flood threat and improve water quality.

3. Biodiversity conservation: Forests provide habitats for many organisms and maintain complex ecosystems. Afforestation can promote the diversity of animals and plants and protect rare and endangered species.
