Academicians Ding Zhongli and Zhang Tao's book "Carbon Neutrality: Logical System and Technical Requirements" was published

Recently, the book "Carbon Neutrality: Logical System and Technical Needs" written by Academician Ding Zhongli, Vice Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, Academician Zhang Tao, Vice President of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and other experts was officially published by Science Press, which was selected as the key publication
of the Central Propaganda Department in 2022.

Striving to achieve carbon peak before 2030 and carbon neutrality before 2060 is a solemn commitment
made by China to the international community.
How to draw a roadmap of carbon neutrality that can be implemented so that China can show the responsibility of a major country while protecting the rights and interests of its own development is a major scientific issue
behind policy formulation.

To this end, the Chinese Academy of Sciences has set up a major consulting project of "China Carbon Neutrality Framework Roadmap Research", and organized more than 100 academicians and experts from multiple faculties to carry out forward-looking research on the theme of "what kind of technical system does China need to develop to achieve carbon neutrality" from the three aspects of carbon sequestration, energy and policy, and summarize and describe the framework roadmap
for China's carbon neutrality 。 The project consulting report provides an in-depth interpretation of the issues of common concern to society, such as "why to achieve carbon neutrality" and "how to achieve carbon neutrality", especially a more comprehensive list of technology needs for research and development to achieve carbon neutrality, which is the first case at home and abroad
.
The project experts supplemented the necessary materials on the basis of the consulting report, and finally formed this authoritative book
on carbon neutrality research.

Starting from the basic logic of achieving carbon neutrality, the book "Carbon Neutrality: Logical System and Technical Requirements" systematically expounds the origin of the problem of carbon neutrality and related concepts, and then shows the cutting-edge technology of building a new power system at the power generation end, the low-carbon technology at the energy consumption end, the ecosystem carbon sequestration and sequestration technology at the carbon sequestration end, and the carbon emission and carbon fixation verification and evaluation technology
in the form of a list of technical requirements 。 The book also briefly introduces the carbon neutrality targets set by major countries in the world, as well as technical, administrative, fiscal and taxation, regulatory and other measures, and puts forward enlightenment
for China's construction of carbon neutrality policy system.
