生态环境部环境与经济政策研究中心党委书记、主任钱勇围绕“解读党的二十大报告精神,介绍习近平生态文明思想核心要义”作主题报告时指出,二十大把绿色发展、生态环境保护摆到了前所未有的高度,中心任务、首要任务和关键环节环环相扣,绿色低碳发展既是重要环节又是推动新的发展、高质量发展的重要内生动力。中国加快绿色低碳发展的理论逻辑、任务逻辑、行动逻辑更加紧密、更加内生、更加融合。
“中国结合自己的国情和实践,探索出自己宝贵的现代化发展道路,既能走得通又能走得好,这既是办好中国自己的事情,也是对全世界重大的贡献。”钱勇强调,中国经济稳中向好、长期向好的基本面没有变,韧性还是比较强,回旋余地还是比较大,外资企业要对中国的发展有信心,中国的大门会越开越大,对在华外资都是一视同仁。
中国新闻社副总编辑兼中国新闻网总裁俞岚在致辞时表示,中欧是世界上两大力量、两大市场、两大文明。中欧强大的经济共生关系不仅体现在传统行业,在绿色能源、科技创新、数字经济等领域的合作潜力也非常大。中新社一直致力于促进中外交流与合作,此次圆桌会是“中新论坛·解码二十大”系列的第二场活动,希望在交流对话中搭建起政府和企业的有效沟通桥梁,为促进欧洲在华跨国企业发展与中欧经贸合作发挥积极作用。
此前,国家发展改革委与美在华跨国企业高层圆桌会在京成功举行。
图为生态环境部综合司副司长张华平作主旨发言。生态环境部综合司副司长张华平就中国环境信息依法披露相关政策措施作主旨发言。他指出,近年来,生态环境部认真贯彻党中央、国务院决策部署,建立了具有中国特色的环境信息依法披露制度。打通市场主体间、市场主体与监管部门间的信息壁垒,引导企业采取环境友好的生产、经营、投资方式,让环保工作突出的企业更好地展现自身,为市场提供能“看得到”、“看得全”、“看得懂”、“看得真”的生态环境信息。
张华平还表示,下一步,将构建强制性与自愿性协同的环境信息披露制度体系与技术规范体系,制定《企业环境信息自愿披露格式准则》,鼓励部分重点行业编制行业性环境信息自愿披露格式准则,开展自愿披露报告编制试点工作。同时,加强环境信息依法披露与环保信用评价政策协同,将企业披露的环境信息纳入环保信用信息,指导和鼓励行业协会商会、金融机构、高校等依据企业披露的环境信息开展环保信用评价,为利益相关方采信提供依据,推动诚信社会建设。
图为生态环境部气候司副司长逯世泽作主旨发言。生态环境部气候司副司长逯世泽就中国碳市场建设相关政策措施作主旨发言。他表示,全国碳市场圆满完成第一个履约周期建设预期目标,建立了制度框架体系,打通了关键环节,提高了企业低碳发展意识,提升了企业和管理部门的能力水平,为下一步健康快速发展奠定坚实基础。
逯世泽还表示,下一步将根据“双碳”目标的要求,稳步推进温室气体自愿减排交易市场建设。无论是配额市场还是自愿减排市场,都是全国碳市场的重要组成部分,也是实现“双碳”目标的重要政策工具。
图为生态环境部环境与经济政策研究中心党委副书记胡军主持圆桌会。生态环境部环境与经济政策研究中心党委副书记胡军表示,绿色发展是国际社会的共识和世界发展的潮流,欧盟“绿色新政”与中国生态文明建设目标总体一致,路径相似,双方有着广泛的共同利益、相似的战略诉求,在新能源、绿色制造、绿色服务等领域已经开展了卓有成效的合作。在新的征程上,我们将更加注重推动绿色发展,加快发展方式绿色转型,深入推进环境污染防治,提升生态系统多样性、稳定性、持续性,积极稳妥推进碳达峰碳中和。
会上,企业代表围绕党的二十大报告相关内容以及美丽中国建设、多双边环境合作、碳市场建设、企业绿色转型等议题与生态环境部相关司局负责人进行了深入互动交流。
生态环境部与欧在华跨国企业高层圆桌会现场。企业代表纷纷表示,通过聆听圆桌会关于党的二十大报告精神、习近平生态文明思想核心要义解读以及中国环境信息依法披露和碳市场建设等方面政策措施的介绍,对于在华深化生态环境领域合作有了更深入更全面的掌握和理解,更加坚定了在华投资的信心。未来将紧扣中国新发展理念和绿色发展主题,积极把握新发展机遇,为促进中欧绿色经济合作走深走实、共同推进美丽中国建设、推动建设一个清洁美丽的世界作出积极贡献。(完)
中新网评:处理核污水绝不是日本自家私事****** 中新网北京1月19日电(蒋鲤)日本政府近日称,将于2023年春夏期间开始向海洋排放经过处理的福岛第一核电站核污水。日本罔顾国内民众及周边国家的屡屡反对,企图将核污水“一倒了之”,把一件关乎全球海洋生态环境和公众健康的事当成了自家私事。 资料图:日本福岛第一核电站。2011年,福岛核电站事故发生后,大量放射性物质泄漏到大气层和太平洋,对周围环境造成了难以逆转的伤害,数十万人被迫撤离该地区。时至今日,作为日本邻国之一的韩国仍未解除福岛海鲜禁令。 日本以核污水存储能力即将达到上限为由,在2021年4月13日,正式决定将福岛第一核电站核污水排入太平洋。过去一年多,日本政府和东京电力公司一直在持续推进核污水排海计划。 日本政府辩称,这些核污水经多核素处理系统(ALPS)处理后很安全,甚至“可以喝”,这样的表态无疑在愚弄大众。 事实上,经过处理的核污水仍含有多种放射性物质,核污水一旦排放入海就无法回收,长期来看,将会给海洋生态带来难以估量的潜在威胁,最终危害人类健康。 因此,核污水排海计划推出后,遭到日本民众强烈反对。日本《朝日新闻》2022年3月公布的问卷调查显示,福岛县、宫城县和岩手县受访的42个市町村长中,约六成反对东京电力公司福岛第一核电站核污水排放入海。日本全国渔业协会联合会也多次申明立场,反对该计划。 日本政府认为,核污水排海是最便宜、最省事的解决方案,但此举却将周边国家乃至全世界置于核污染风险中。太平洋非日本一家之海,核污水会随着洋流流动,其影响势必会跨越国界,危害周边国家乃至整个国际社会的公共福祉和利益。 《韩国经济新闻》发文称,相关研究认为,福岛核污水如果排放入海,约7个月后将到达济州等韩国海域,该国水产业和旅游业将遭受相当大的损失。 德国南极海洋机构也曾发出警告,若日本将所有核污水排入海中,不到半年,整个太平洋都将面临高度辐射威胁,包括远在大洋另一端的美国。太平洋地区人民更是对日本该计划持反对意见。 日本作为《联合国海洋法公约》缔约国,有义务保护海洋环境。然而,在核污水排海方案的正当性、核污水数据的可靠性、净化装置的有效性、环境影响的不确定性等问题上,日本未能作出科学、可信的说明。 国际原子能机构技术工作组虽已三次赴日实地考察评估,但尚未就日排海方案的安全性给出结论,并且对日本提出诸多澄清要求和整改意见。在此情况下,日本仍执意推进核污水排海工程建设,这是极不负责任的行为。 太平洋不是日本的下水道,日本必须正视各方合理关切,在与周边国家等相关利益方和国际原子能机构充分协商后,制定合理的核污水处理方案。日本也要着眼长远,若只顾眼前,执意将核污水排放入海,不仅其自身,周边国家乃至全世界都将为之买单,其后果必将会危害数代人。 Fukushima water disposal by no means Japan’s own business By John Lee (ECNS) -- Japan has announced it will release treated wastewater from the wrecked Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant into the Pacific Ocean this year. Although Fukushima wastewater disposal affects global marine ecological environment protection and public health, Japan has turned a deaf ear to domestic and international opposition to dumping the contaminated water into the sea, treating the "global" matter as its own business. The Fukushima accident in 2011 had sent large quantities of radiation into the atmosphere and the Pacific Ocean, causing irreversible damage to the surrounding environment, and hundreds of thousands of people were forced to evacuate the area. South Korea still maintains its import ban on Japanese seafood from areas affected by the Fukushima nuclear disaster. On April 13, 2021, Japan announced it had decided to discharge contaminated radioactive wastewater in Fukushima Prefecture into the sea due to dwindling storage space, with the Japanese government and plant operator Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings Inc. promoting the release plan over the past year. The Japanese government argues that the water treated by an advanced liquid processing system, or ALPS, is safe and drinkable, which is undoubtedly fooling the public. In fact, the treated wastewater still includes a variety of radioactive substances and can’t be recycled once discharged into the sea, which will pose a great threat to marine ecology and ultimately endanger human health in the long run. Therefore, the discharge plan has been strongly opposed in Japan. According to a questionnaire conducted by The Asahi Shimbun, nearly 60 percent of mayors of 42 municipalities in Iwate, Miyagi and Fukushima prefectures oppose the discharge plan. The National Fisheries Cooperative Federation of Japan has also repeatedly stated its opposition in public. The Japanese government believes that dumping Fukushima wastewater into the sea is the cheapest and most convenient solution, but neighboring countries and even the whole world will be at risk of nuclear pollution. The Pacific Ocean doesn’t belong to Japan and the wastewater flow along oceanic currents will surely break boundaries and endanger public welfare and the interests of neighboring countries and even the international community. The Korea Economic Daily reported that related research concluded that if contaminated water from Fukushima is released into the ocean, it would only take seven months for the contaminated water to reach the shores of Jeju Island, with the country's aquaculture and tourism suffering considerable losses. According to the calculation of a German marine scientific research institute, radioactive materials will spread to most of the Pacific Ocean within half a year from the date of discharge, and the U.S. and Canada will be affected by nuclear pollution. People in the Pacific region also oppose the discharge plan. As a participant of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, Japan has the obligation of protecting the marine environment. However, it hasn’t offered a full and convincing explanation on issues like the legitimacy of the discharge plan, the reliability of data on the nuclear-contaminated water, the efficacy of the treatment system or the uncertainty of environmental impact. Though the IAEA has yet to complete a comprehensive review after three investigations in Japan, the Japanese side has been pushing through the approval process for its discharge plan and even started building facilities for the discharge. It is rather irresponsible for Japan to act against public opinion at home and concerns abroad. The Pacific Ocean is not a private Japanese sewer. The country must seriously heed the voices of the international community and make a reasonable plan for the Fukushima wastewater disposal after full consultation with stakeholders and international agencies. If it only seeks instant interest and insists on discharging the contaminated water into the sea, not only itself, but also its neighboring countries and the entire world will pay for the decision and several generations will be forced to bear the consequence.
