"Do you know the names of the seven internationally recognized greenhouse gases?" Li Han started with this question and aroused students 'interest in knowledge in the "double carbon" field. Subsequently, he deeply popularized the "double carbon" knowledge from four aspects: "my country's 'double carbon' macro strategic background","climate change response plan","near-zero carbon park construction" and "product carbon footprint". He explained in detail the policies and technical paths to deal with climate change and promote low-carbon development; vividly elaborated on the "double carbon" policy system of the country and Chongqing City, emphasized the importance of industrial parks in the implementation of the "double carbon" strategy, and Chongqing Industrial Park has made remarkable achievements in near-zero carbon pilot construction.At the same time, we shared the cutting-edge practices and success stories of many companies in promoting low-carbon production and finely managing carbon emissions.

In addition, he also popularized the concept of product carbon footprint in simple terms, pointed out the current severe climate change situation and energy consumption and carbon emissions situation, and guided teachers and students of the school to comprehensively understand the carbon emissions assessment system throughout the life cycle from raw material collection to final consumption., enhanced teachers and students 'awareness of green consumption, and has a profound positive impact on promoting the formation of a low-carbon lifestyle and sustainable development concept.

Li Han told reporters: "In the higher education stage, more attention should be paid to strengthening the connection between various disciplines and 'double carbon'and the construction of green and low-carbon related professional disciplines, enhance young people's enthusiasm for the' double carbon'goal, and make green and low-carbon concepts Enter the brain and heart."

It is understood that Chongqing University of Finance and Economics has made great efforts in campus construction in aspects such as environmental protection concepts and energy conservation management. For example, we carry out "energy conservation and emission reduction" themed publicity activities and are committed to building low-carbon campuses with waste-free campuses; organize students to carry out "low-carbon and environmental protection" and "green life" volunteer service activities to keep the concept of "two mountains" in mind, ecological civilization "planting" the heart and guiding students to strive to be practitioners, promoters and advocates of ecological civilization construction are of great significance to achieving the "double carbon" goal.
