CGTN launches special series ‘The Heartbeat of China’

Herdsmen find new, efficient ways to raise sheep. Conservationists find ways to protect rare breeds of animals in the deep jungles. Cities experiment with new forms of clean, sustainable energy that can replace pollutants damaging our world. On the occasion of COP28, CGTN presents the special series ‘The Heartbeat of China’ to probe the country’s efforts to protect the environment, improve development and sustain our planet.

How to protect the environment while increasing development is a puzzle for many countries. CGTN’s Liu Xin and Shanghai Daily’s Andy Boreham went to the world’s highest capacity hydro-solar power station and also to an eco-farming cooperative in Qinghai’s Gonghe to find the answers. Boreham was impressed by the efficiency and execution of the project. “Things happen in China much more quickly than in the West,” said Boreham. “I hope that in the future, we can learn from the different systems.”

Climate change and rising energy demands affect us all. Now more than ever, it’s become crucial to find sources of clean, sustainable energy. CGTN’s Xu Qinduo went to Foshan in south China’s Guandong Province, a city on the cutting edge of exploring the potentials of hydrogen energy. He was accompanied by Dr. Shen Yiyang, director of the Inclusive Development Research Center, and David Blair, vice president of Center for China and Globalization. There they observed new developments in hydrogen energy production, storage, transportation, and new applications that are revolutionizing the city towards a low-carbon lifestyle. In 2020, China announced it will peak carbon dioxide emissions before 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality before 2060. “It’s not just every province that must cap emission reduction targets, every sector is also receiving such targets,” said Shen. “With the support of the hydrogen and fuel cell infrastructure, it’s very good that green transition is happening.”

Biodiversity is our strongest natural defense against climate change. China’s biodiversity program is best witnessed up close. CGTN’s Tian Wei and Beate Trankmann, the China Representative of the United Nations Development Programme, traveled to Dehong Dai and Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture in southwest China’s Yunnan Province, the home of one in ten terrestrial and aquatic animals in China. “China has invested a lot of policies and financial resources into the protection of nature,” said Trankmann. “China has introduced the ecological red line policy that is looking at how China can protect valuable ecosystems better, and ensure that they can function well for nature and also for people.”

From the combination of eco-farming and hydro-solar power in Qinghai to the diversified applications of hydrogen energy in Foshan and the remarkable progress in biodiversity conservation in Dehong, China has been consistent with its words and deeds in combating climate change. Climate change is a challenge for all of humanity. To protect our planet, every effort counts. China will honor its commitments and continue to make its due global contribution to fight climate change.
