Normative expression of carbon neutrality schedule in climate change basic law
The current carbon neutrality work in China is mainly promoted on a policy path,and the relevant legislation is not yet perfect,especially that the lack of a clear carbon neutrality schedule may lead to carbon charging and campaign style carbon reduction in some places.It is not conducive to actively and steadily achieving carbon neutrality goals,and may also bring uncertainty to production and life.The Standing Committee of the National People's Congress proposed to strengthen research on climate change and carbon peaking and carbon neutrality legislation during the 14th Five Year Plan period.Carbon neutrality schedule is an effective method for managing the progress of carbon neutrality and ensuring the achievement of carbon neutrality goals,which is provided in most countries'carbon neutrality legislation.Under the schedule for"striving to achieve carbon peak before 2030 and carbon neutrality before 2060"of China,studying and formulating practical and feasible carbon neutrality schedule legal norms is not only conducive to advancing the legislative process of climate change and carbon peak and carbon neutrality,but also conducive to enhancing the feasibility of carbon neutrality legislation,stabilizing social production and living expectations,and enhancing China's voice in international climate cooperative governance.The carbon neutrality schedule legal norms should be based on China's basic national conditions such as industrial structure and energy structure,combined with needs of international climate cooperative governance,and designed based on the combination of scientific and policy nature,international and national nature,and current and future nature.Through the legislative purpose clause and special clauses on carbon neutrality schedule of the Climate Change Law,the process of China's carbon neutrality work should be incorporated into the track of the rule of law,to give full play to the role of the rule of law in solidifying foundation,stabilizing expectations,and promoting long-term benefits,and safeguarding the basic rights and freedoms of the present and future generations of the people.Specifically,in the legislative purpose clause,the content of carbon neutrality schedule is suggested to state as"to promote the implementation of national carbon neutrality strategy and to promote international climate governance cooperation".In the special clauses,a specific and clear relative short-term carbon neutrality schedule should be provided,phased carbon neutrality goals for medium and long-term carbon neutrality schedule should be designed,and the State Council should be authorized to refine and advance the carbon neutrality schedule during the phased period.
