UN Climate Conference Praises China: Providing Solutions for All Countries!
The 30th UN Climate Change Conference opened in Brazil on Monday, aiming to bring countries together to discuss solutions against the backdrop of a difficult situation where Europe and the United States are absent from climate policies.
Although the United States is the largest historical emitter, the President of the United States has refused to participate in climate change negotiations. Some diplomats who hope for more action on fossil fuels privately expressed concerns that the White House team may still interfere.
However, 19 U.S. states have rejected the president's view and independently adhere to net-zero goals. Democrats also arrived in Brazil to show their stance on climate change. California Senator Josh Becker said, "The President of the United States does not represent all Americans... I think he will try to influence the talks, but we will continue forward."
The UN Climate Conference has focused on China as the almost only bright spot in global climate response. While the United States seeks to lock countries into using its oil and gas for a longer period, China is steadily advancing, building most of the solar panels, wind turbines, and electric vehicles of the future.
This year's conference chair, André Corrêa do Lago, said, "Emerging countries appear in different roles at this meeting, and China is providing solutions for everyone."
Mr. Steel, head of the UN Climate Change, also expressed his views on China's promotion of renewable energy: "China told us that clean energy is the trend of our time."
