The 2024 Third Impact International Climate Innovation Conference recently opened in Haikou. With the theme of "Accelerating partnerships for a zero-carbon future", the conference discussed cutting-edge green and low-carbon solutions and innovative technologies to accelerate the green and low-carbon transformation of the industry and the global emission reduction process.
Mao Dongli, Secretary of the Party Leadership Group and Director of the Department of Ecology and Environment of Hainan Province, said in his speech at the opening ceremony that Hainan is close to Hong Kong and Macao, radiates to the ASEAN market, and is interconnected with the countries co-building the "Belt and Road" in the air and sea.

At the same time, Hainan has the advantages of "three degrees and one color", namely, climate and temperature advantages, ocean depth advantages, geographical latitude advantages, and green ecological advantages. It is an important practice area for practicing the concept of ecological civilization that "lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets" and will become an important practice place to deal with climate change.
On the topic of "how to accelerate the establishment of a carbon footprint management system, form a green and low-carbon supply chain and production and lifestyle, and help achieve the goal of peak carbon and carbon neutrality", He Kebin, academician of China Academy of Engineering, professor of the School of Environment of Tsinghua University, and president of the Carbon Neutralization Research Institute, said in an interview that it is necessary to actively participate in the formulation of international rules, reflect national conditions in the accounting system, ensure consistency between the framework level and international standards, and innovate the old and the new under the premise of the same rules. Propose standards higher than existing international general rules in terms of transparency and representativeness to lead the development of the international carbon footprint system.
