Climate change is a global problem facing mankind. With the emission of carbon dioxide in various countries, greenhouse gases have surged, posing a threat to life systems. In this context, countries around the world have reduced greenhouse gas emissions in the form of global agreements, and China proposed the goal of carbon dioxide emission peak and carbon neutrality.

Carbon emissions are closely related to economic development, which requires energy consumption. Shao Min, dean of the Institute of Environment and Climate of Jinan University, said that "the peak of carbon dioxide emissions" means that our country promises that carbon dioxide emissions will not increase before 2030, and will gradually decrease after reaching the peak; By 2060, through afforestation, energy conservation and emission reduction, carbon dioxide emissions will be completely offset, which is "carbon neutrality".

When did it appear?

On September 22nd, 2020, during the general debate of the 75th UN General Assembly, carbon neutrality of the peak carbon dioxide emission was mentioned.
