Xi Jinping pointed out that climate change poses severe challenges to human survival and development. In the face of unprecedented difficulties in global environmental governance, the international community should, with unprecedented ambition and action, jointly discuss strategies to deal with the challenges of climate change, jointly seek the way of harmonious symbiosis between man and nature, have the courage to take responsibility and work together to build a community of life between man and nature.
First, adhere to the harmonious coexistence of man and nature. Human beings should take nature as their root, respect nature, conform to nature and protect nature. It is necessary to protect the natural and ecological environment like protecting the eyes, and promote the formation of a new pattern of harmonious coexistence between man and nature.
The second is to adhere to green development. To protect the ecological environment is to protect the productive forces, and to improve the ecological environment is to develop the productive forces. We must abandon the development model that damages or even destroys the ecological environment, and abandon the short-sighted approach of sacrificing the environment for temporary development. Vigorously promote the transformation and upgrading of the economy, energy, and industrial structure, and make a good ecological environment a support for the sustainable development of the global economy and society.
Three is to adhere to the system of governance. Landscape forest field lake grass sand is an inseparable ecosystem. According to the inherent laws of the ecosystem, all elements of the natural ecology should be considered as a whole, so as to achieve the goal of enhancing the recycling capacity of the ecosystem and maintaining ecological balance.
Four is to adhere to the people-oriented. It is necessary to explore the synergy between environmental protection and economic development, job creation, and poverty eradication, strive to achieve social equity and justice in the process of green transformation, and increase people's sense of gain, happiness, and security.
Fifth, adhere to multilateralism. We must adhere to international law as the basis, fairness and justice as the gist, and effective action as the guide, maintain the international system with the United Nations as the core, and follow the goals and principles of the "United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change" and its "Paris Agreement. China welcomes the US's return to the multilateral climate governance process and looks forward to working with the international community, including the US, to promote global environmental governance.
Sixth, adhere to the principle of common but differentiated responsibilities. We should fully recognize the contributions made by developing countries in addressing climate change and take into account their special difficulties and concerns. Developed countries should show greater ambitions and actions, and at the same time provide developing countries with financial, technological, and capacity-building support.

Xi Jinping emphasized that China will incorporate the concept of ecological civilization and the construction of ecological civilization into the overall layout of socialism with Chinese characteristics, and adhere to the development path of ecological priority, green and low-carbon. China's announcement that it will strive to achieve carbon peak by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060 is a major strategic decision based on promoting the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind and achieving sustainable development, which requires China's painstaking efforts. China is formulating a carbon peak action plan, carrying out extensive and in-depth carbon peak action, and supporting qualified localities, key industries and key enterprises to take the lead in reaching the peak. China will strictly control coal power projects, strictly control the growth of coal consumption during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, and gradually reduce during the "15th Five-Year Plan" period.
Xi Jinping pointed out that as a participant, contributor and leader in the construction of global ecological civilization, China firmly practices multilateralism and strives to promote the construction of a fair, reasonable and win-win global environmental governance system. China will host the 15th Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity in October this year, and work with all parties to promote global biodiversity governance to a new level. Through various forms of South-South practical cooperation, China has helped developing countries improve their capacity to cope with climate change. China also takes cooperation in the field of ecological civilization as a key content of the joint construction of the "Belt and Road", and continues to benefit the people of all countries participating in the joint construction of the "Belt and Road.
Xi Jinping pointed out that the challenges brought by climate change to mankind are realistic, severe and long-term. I firmly believe that as long as we think and work hard together, mankind will be able to cope with the global climate and environmental challenges and leave a clean and beautiful world to future generations.

Support the success of the 15th Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity in Kunming.
