Chinese President Xi Jinping reaffirmed China's commitment to global climate goals and green development while delivering a speech via video link at the Leaders Meeting on Climate and the Just Transition on Wednesday.
Noting that China is a firm campaigner and important contributor to the world's green development, Xi said China has built the world's largest and fastest-growing renewable energy system, established the world's largest and most complete new energy industry chain, and contributed a quarter of the world's total new green area since he announced the dual carbon goals five years ago.
"However the world may change, China will not slow down its climate actions, will not reduce its support for international cooperation, and will not cease its efforts to build a community with a shared future for mankind. China is willing to work with all parties to earnestly honor the principle of common but differentiated responsibilities, do the utmost respectively and collectively, and build a clean, beautiful, and sustainable world together," said Xi.
At the virtual summit on Wednesday, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres and Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva brought together 17 national leaders from major economies and climate-vulnerable countries. The goal was to accelerate global climate ambition ahead of COP30, which will be held in Brazil later this year.
The meeting was part of effort to sustain political momentum during a pivotal year for combating climate change, according to a senior UN official. This year is the 10th anniversary of the Paris Agreement and the upcoming deadline for countries to submit new climate plans.
