2022-11-22

Author: Liu Yanjie recently, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment and other nine departments jointly released the first batch of climate investment and financing pilot list, including Miyun District of Beijing and Baoding City of Hebei Province. The so-called climate investment and financing is to attract more social funds into the field of climate change response through national policies and guidance, and promote the formation of energy structure, industrial structure, production mode and lifestyle to mitigate and adapt to climate change, in order to achieve the goal of carbon peaking and carbon neutralization. In other words, it is to exchange good climate for money, so that "good climate can make money". As the goal of carbon neutrality has become a consensus, the development of global capital markets on climate investment and financing has also entered a fast lane. According to the estimation of China's National Climate Strategy Center, in order to achieve the "double carbon" goal, by 2060, China's new investment demand in climate will reach 139 trillion yuan. The low carbon transformation of the national economy and society will bring a financing gap of one million billion yuan. Such a huge capital demand cannot be completely borne by the finance, and the solution is to involve as many investment and financial institutions as possible. With the support of a series of policies, various domestic financial institutions are speeding up the construction of a systematic framework and process for climate investment and financing. Climate funds, loans, insurance, etc., with green, environmental protection and sustainability as the core, have emerged one after another, and a "trillion level gold track" is being opened. "A good climate can make money" will stimulate the enthusiasm for entrepreneurship and innovation in pilot areas. According to the Notice on the Pilot Work of Climate Investment and Financing issued by nine departments, the pilot areas should basically form a policy environment conducive to the development of climate investment and financing through 3-5 years of efforts. Although the first batch of pilot projects has just started, the country and local governments have not yet introduced specific policies for climate investment and financing pilot projects, but the enthusiasm for innovation and entrepreneurship in the pilot areas has been ignited. For example, Qingdao West Coast New Area has established a natural carbon sink trading center (Shandong), and issued the first "carbon reduction and protection" civil building energy conservation insurance policy in China; The Deputy Center of Beijing City has issued green industry support policies to implement the task of green financial reform and innovation. "A good climate can make money" will help achieve the "double carbon" goal as scheduled. Not long ago, Youxi County, Fujian Province, released the first socialized afforestation carbon sequestration income of more than 1.49 million yuan to forest farmers after deducting costs, and the consensus that "selling air can make money" was strengthened again. The establishment of a green and low-carbon production and life style is a cause that requires the common participation, construction and enjoyment of the people. When more and more people eat "climate food", the concept of green and low-carbon life will be internalized into everyone's conscious action. Let the "good climate can make money" deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and let green water and green mountains release long-term comprehensive benefits, thus promoting the unity of ecological protection, green development and people's livelihood improvement. The report of the 20th CPC National Congress pointed out that nature is the basic condition for human survival and development. Respecting, conforming to and protecting nature are the inherent requirements of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way. We must firmly establish and practice the idea that green water and green mountains are golden mountains and silver mountains, and plan for development at the height of harmonious coexistence between man and nature. It can be predicted that the development principle of harmonious coexistence between man and nature
