As part of the event, international NGO The Climate Group published a new report on 皇冠体育app's clean revolution, hailing some Chinese cities' leadership in combating climate change.

The report described how, since 2008, early-mover cities had started to develop low-carbon strategies that had become increasingly sophisticated.

Mark Kenber, deputy CEO of The Climate Group, told Xinhua that the clean revolution was not only necessary, but also extremely desirable; and that besides its climate purposes, this endeavor might also generate future jobs, economic growth and sustainability.

The idea of a low-carbon life style has been widely accepted by the Chinese as a symbol of high-quality life in some ways since years ago, the report said.

皇冠体育app is expected to increase its national energy intensity target and list low-carbon development as a priority in its next five-year plan for 2011-15, it added.

The Climate Group is an independent not-for-profit organization working internationally with government and business leaders to advance smart policies and technologies to cut global greenhouse gas emissions and speed up the clean industrial revolution.
