China determined to continue climate pact with or without the us

China has reiterated its commitment to implementing the Paris Agreement on climate change, despite the United States' withdrawal from the pact. In fact, China has emphasized that it will continue to work towards its climate goals, with or without the US.

Here are some key points:

  1. China's commitment to the Paris Agreement: China has reaffirmed its commitment to the Paris Agreement, which aims to limit global warming to well below 2°C and pursue efforts to limit it to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. China has pledged to peak its carbon emissions by 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2060.
  2. Domestic efforts: China has been taking domestic measures to reduce its carbon footprint, including increasing the use of renewable energy, improving energy efficiency, and promoting electric vehicles. The country has also set targets to reduce its carbon intensity (emissions per unit of GDP) by 60% by 2030.
  3. International cooperation: China has emphasized the importance of international cooperation on climate change and has called on other countries to join forces to address the global challenge. China has also pledged to continue working with other countries to implement the Paris Agreement, even if the US is not participating.
  4. EU-China cooperation: China has strengthened its cooperation with the European Union (EU) on climate change, with the two sides agreeing to enhance their cooperation on clean energy, sustainable development, and climate action. The EU and China have also launched a joint initiative to promote the development of low-carbon technologies.
  5. Regional cooperation: China has also been actively engaged in regional cooperation on climate change, including through the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). China has pledged to work with other regional countries to promote sustainable development and address climate change.

In summary, China is determined to continue implementing the Paris Agreement and addressing climate change, with or without the US. China's domestic efforts, international cooperation, and regional engagement demonstrate its commitment to reducing its carbon footprint and promoting sustainable development.
