CHINA will build an "industrial system" and "consumption pattern" with low carbon emissions, Premier Wen Jiabao said in the government work report delivered at the annual session of the National People's Congress in Beijing yesterday.
The country will work hard to develop low-carbon technologies as well as new and renewable energy resources to actively respond to climate change, Wen said.
He also said the development of smart power grids should be intensified.
Other measures to combat climate change include increasing forest carbon sinks and expanding China's forests by at least 5.92 million hectares in 2010.
He promised that China will participate in international cooperation to address climate change and work for further progress in the global cause.
Wen also addressed energy conservation, environmental protection and the development of a circular (recycling) economy.
"We will increase our energy-saving capacity by an equivalent of 80 million tons of standard coal," he said.
