Historical Logic of Global Carbon Reduction and China's Policy Choice
The formation of global carbon reduction targets is underpinned by an internal logic,manifesting the dialectical unity of necessity and stage.Throughout the long-term quest of advancing carbon emissions governance and reconciling the interplay between development and environment,pioneering advancement in carbon reduction technologies has assumed a pivotal and foundamental role,and market mechanisms have played an effective role in regulation and stimulation.Drawing upon this analysis,it is imperative for China to balance the relationship between development and carbon reduction in advancing carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals.This paper provides the following policy implications:Firstly,grasp the key priorities of the phased goal towards achieving carbon reduction to enhance the coordinated development of economic society,carbon reduction technologies,and the new energy sector.Secondly,handle the relationship between carbon reduction and industrial restructuring to prevent premature serviceization or lightweighting of industrial structure.Thirdly,enhance the research,development,implementation,and dissemination of carbon reduction technologies to better exert the positive influence.Fourthly,deal with the relationship between the government and the market in carbon emissions abatement,fostering the model transformation of carbon reduction.Finally,take an active role in the international domain of carbon governance to augment China's discourse power in climate governance issues.
