1, "carbon neutrality" refers to the total amount of greenhouse gas emissions directly or indirectly generated by enterprises, groups or individuals through afforestation, energy conservation and emission reduction before 2060. To offset its own carbon dioxide emissions and achieve "zero emission" of carbon dioxide.
2. "Peak CO2 emission" refers to China's commitment that CO2 emission will not increase before 2030, and will gradually decrease after reaching the peak.

In production and life, we should not only reduce the consumption proportion of fossil energy, but also vigorously develop renewable energy such as hydropower, wind power, photovoltaic power generation and biomass power generation, so that the restructuring of the energy industry pattern will be the general trend and will inevitably bring new opportunities and growth points to the economy.
For example, at present, China has formed a complete industrial chain of wind power photovoltaic power generation equipment manufacturing, and its technical level and manufacturing scale rank among the top in the world.
When the era of carbon neutrality comes, the central and western regions of China, where photovoltaic and wind energy are concentrated, will become one of the most important energy exporting places, and the role of the central and western regions in China's economic map will be redefined, and the value chain of new energy and low-carbon technologies will become the top priority.
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" refers to our country's commitment 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".
