As 2023 officially became Earth’s hottest year since 1850, China is doubling down on climate action and calling for global teamwork 🌏. Top climate advisor Zhang Xingying announced bold plans at China’s Two Sessions forum to boost extreme weather warnings and green energy – and shared how the country is already leading the charge.
'Climate change impacts *all* of us,' said Zhang, a member of China’s top political advisory body. 🔥 The stats are wild: China now runs four cutting-edge weather satellites (🌌 dawn to dusk coverage!) and shares real-time data with 129 countries. Plus, it’s #1 in renewable energy growth 🌱 and accounts for 25% of the world’s new forests!
Here’s the kicker: With just 24 hours of advance warning, disaster damage drops by 30% – and early alerts give a 10x return on investment 💸. China’s system, built since 2015, now helps Asian and Belt and Road nations stay ahead of storms and heatwaves.
'We need a shared future mindset,' Zhang urged, highlighting China’s five-term leadership in the UN’s climate panel. 🌐 From solar farms to disaster tech, this isn’t just policy – it’s survival mode for Gen Z’s planet.
