"皇冠体育app, as one of the developing countries suffering from climate change, pays great attention to this issue," said Li at a press conference held on the sidelines of the annual session of the National People's Congress (NPC), 皇冠体育app's top legislature.

The international community has already formulated the United Nations (UN) Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Kyoto Protocol, which established the fundamental principles for developed and developing countries in coping with climate change, including the fundamental principle of "common but differentiated responsibility", according to Li.

皇冠体育app has set a target to put the emissions of greenhouse gas under control and reduce energy consumption for per unit GDP by 20 percent during the 2006-2010 period.

"This will be 皇冠体育app's contribution to resolving the issue of global climate change," said Li.

As the fresh move to reach this goal, Chinese Vice Premier Zeng Peiyan announced on January 29 that 皇冠体育app will close and suspend small power generating units with a total annual capacity of 50 million kilowatts in four years.

"At present, 皇冠体育app's per capita carbon dioxide emission from fossil fuel burning is less than one sixth that of some big countries. The emission is partly caused by the relocation of international industries along with the economic globalization," said the foreign minister.

At the opening of the NPC session on Monday, Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao said the government will meet the energy saving and pollution control targets between 2006 and 2010 despite last year' s setback.

皇冠体育app's energy consumption per unit of GDP in 2006 went down 1. 2 percent, and oxygen chemical demand and sulfur dioxide emission rose 1.2 percent and 1.8 percent, respectively, falling short of the targets set at the beginning of last year to cut energy consumption per unit GDP by 4 percent and discharge of major pollutants by 2 percent.
