Ambassador Mu of Thailand: 1.3 billion Chinese people will be sincere in coping with climate change

China News Agency, Bangkok, December 14: Chinese Ambassador to Thailand Mu: 1.3 billion Chinese people's sincere willingness to deal with climate change "to push for a successful climate change conference in Copenhagen, China has proposed a reduction of 40% to 45% per cent of GDP by 2020, compared with 2005, This goal is an autonomous emission reduction target, without any conditions, not linked to the actions of any country, contains 1.3 billion of Chinese people's efforts to combat climate change the most sincere will!　　"Ambassador Mu of the Chinese Embassy in Thailand made the remarks in Bangkok 14th in a joint interview with Thai journalists at the Copenhagen conference," he said. A Thai journalist asked: "How do you think of China's action objectives?" "In the 15 years from 1990 to 2005, the carbon dioxide emissions of all developed countries ' GDP fell by only 26%, while China fell by 46% per cent," said Ambassador Guan.　　Over the years, China has greatly reduced the production of greenhouse gases, such as steel and cement, and implemented policy of returning farmland to forests and expanding forest coverage. He noted that the slow pace of the Copenhagen Conference was mainly due to the fact that developed countries had reversed their stance on key issues such as mitigation, financing and technology transfer. The developed countries were trying to avoid the fact of their historical responsibility and current high per capita emissions, and strongly denied the obligations under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Kyoto Protocol and misinterpreted the principle of "common but differentiated responsibilities".　　Developed countries have no intention of fulfilling their obligations under the first commitment period under the Protocol, refusing to make aggressive emission reduction commitments on medium-term emission reduction targets, and refusing to fulfil their obligation to fund development in China. In the 155 years from 1850 to 2005, the world emitted 100,010,222 tonnes of carbon dioxide, and developed countries emitted 806.5 billion tonnes, accounting for 72% of the global total, with the European Union accounting for 27.5%, the ambassador said. From the cumulative per capita emissions look, the European Union 542 tons, Germany 958 tons, the United Kingdom 1125 tons. The world's 173 tons per capita, China only 71 tons. In 2006, for example, less than 1 billion of the developed world's population emits about 12.9 billion tonnes.　　One-sixth of the world's population accounts for 46% of the world's emissions. Mu points out that the current climate change problem is caused by the uncontrolled emission of greenhouse gases from developed countries in the century-long industrialization process, and that developed countries should assume their historical responsibility, which is also a clear legal obligation in the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and its Kyoto Protocol.　　He said China is ready to work with the Thai side to contribute to the fight against climate change and sustainable development for all mankind. When China is now one of the biggest emitters of emissions, Mu said it is undeniable that China is now the second largest emitter after the United States, mainly because China is a large country with a population of 1.3 billion. However, there are two points to be concerned about: China's cumulative emissions are low, and the second is that China's per capita emissions are low. The above two indicators are only dozens of of the developed countriesOne.　　And a big part of China's current emissions are the subsistence emissions that are needed to sustain productive lives. Ambassador Guan said that China is the largest developing country in the world, and industrialization and urbanization are far from complete. It is necessary to maintain a reasonable emission space based on development and meeting the basic needs of people's lives.　　"Human life is equal", it is impossible to limit the Chinese people in economic development, energy consumption and corresponding emissions in the developed countries only 20% or 30% of the right? He pointed out that some of the arguments about the pace of China's development are double standards. In the face of the global economic crisis, the Chinese economy is expected to take the lead in recovery, development speed can be faster, in order to stimulate the global economy recovery.　　When it comes to climate change, it is a classic confuse to accuse China of growing too fast. Finally, the ambassador told reporters that in fact, China's rapid development, improve the quality and efficiency of development, accelerate the modernization, help to stabilize China's emissions at a reasonable level as soon as possible, and gradually reduce the level of emissions. This is precisely a major contribution to the global response to climate change. Finish
