Q

According to the "Office of the Foreign Ministry spokesman's office", at the regular press conference of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on June 15, a reporter from Phoenix Satellite TV asked: According to Bloomberg, a study of the University of Chicago in the United States shows that China has reduced air pollution in 7 years and the United States is in the United States. The decreased air pollution in 30 years has helped reduce the global smog. If this trend continues, the average life expectancy of China's population will increase by 2 years. If other countries implement strong pollution governance policies, it is possible to achieve such achievements in the future. What is China's comment?

A

Wang Wenbin: Relevant reports have confirmed the significant results of China's air pollution governance and important contributions to global environmental governance. I believe that foreign journalists who are resident in China, like us, can personally feel the visible and visible and touching results of China's air quality improvement. The haze weather is getting less and less. The more, the more the people's sense of gain in the ecological environment has continued to increase. I have a set of numbers here: In 2021, China ’s 339 prefecture -level and above cities with an average number of air quality excellent air quality is 87.5%, an increase of 0.5 percentage points over the previous year; cities with air quality in the year accounted PM2.5) The average annual concentration of 30 micrograms/cubic meters, a decrease of 9.1%over the previous year.

Taking this opportunity, I also want to tell you that this week is the 32nd National Energy Conservation Week in China. Today is a national low -carbon day. The theme is "implementing the" double carbon 'and building a beautiful home. " Improve the awareness of energy conservation and energy conservation in the whole society, promote the popularization of green production and lifestyle, and mobilize the whole society to participate in low -carbon operations. It is an important part of promoting the construction of ecological civilization and the construction of beautiful China. China adheres to the concept of community of human and natural life, and adheres to the path of ecological priority, green and low -carbon development. Building a clean and beautiful green home is also the common ideal of the people of all countries. We are willing to work with you, starting from me, starting from the small things around me, spreading the concept of energy concepts and emission reduction, practicing green and low -carbon life, and contributing to the common global homeland of human beings and contribute to the sustainable development of the world.
