The carbon neutrality release event of the 14th National Winter Games (hereinafter referred to as the "14th Winter") was recently held in Hohhot City. The launch event site officially announced the goal of achieving carbon neutrality in the "14th Winter", becoming the first comprehensive winter sports event in the country to achieve carbon neutrality. This move is also an important milestone in carbon neutrality for large-scale activities in Inner Mongolia, setting a new example for promoting green and low-carbon hosting of competitions and providing an "Inner Mongolia Plan".
As the first national-level comprehensive winter sports event after the Beijing Winter Olympics, the "14th Winter" held in February this year covered 10 major events, 16 items and 180 minor events. It is the largest and largest event in previous national winter games. The event with the most events and the highest standards. The government of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region has deeply integrated the concept of green and low-carbon into the preparation and execution of the event and actively created carbon-neutral events. Relevant units and competition areas in the autonomous region have implemented the "14th Winter" carbon neutrality action with high standards and carried out high-quality carbon emission reduction, carbon offset, and national participation. Before the competition, we organized the formulation of the "14th Winter" Carbon Neutralization Work Plan and the "14th Winter" Carbon Neutralization Action Plan ", implemented the path of emission control and carbon reduction during the competition, and organized the preparation of the" 14th Winter "Carbon Neutralization Report","" 14th Winter "Carbon Neutralization Report","14th Winter" Carbon Neutralization Forest Carbon Neutralization Report "," 14th Winter "Carbon Neutralization Forest Carbon Neutralization Report", etc.
According to reports, during the "14th Winter" event, a total of 35744 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent were generated in the Inner Mongolia competition area. Through the 30000 tons of internationally certified (VCS) voluntary emission reductions donated by Inner Mongolia Forest Industry Group; China Green Carbon Sink Foundation, Baotou City State-owned Capital Operation Group Climate Change Investment and Financing Industry Promotion Center, Inner Mongolia Yaxin Longshun Special Steel Co., Ltd. donated 5000 tons of Baotou digital carbon coupons; Ant Group attracted 1.8838 million users to participate through online activities initiated by the "Ant Forest" platform, and jointly contributed 1955 tons of CCER; The 5327 acres of carbon neutral forests built by Hulunbuir, Chifeng, and Ulanqab City Forestry and Grassland Bureaus are estimated to generate 9374 tons of carbon sinks in the next six years. The four channels offset a total of 46329 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent, and the sales volume is far greater than the emissions. The carbon neutrality goal was successfully achieved in the "Fourteenth Winter".
The realization of carbon neutrality in the "14th Winter" is an important opportunity for Inner Mongolia to promote the concept of green and low-carbon development and guide society to participate in voluntary emission reduction. This not only sets a new model for carbon neutrality in holding large-scale events, but also explores new paths for the innovative application of forest and grass carbon sinks in the "double carbon" goal, making the concept of green and low-carbon more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and making the value of carbon sinks more realized.
