On Saturday, China's Special Representative on Climate Change and chief negotiator Xie Zhenghua praised the adoption 1 of the deal in Paris.
"The Chinese delegation 2 fully 3 supports the joint 4 efforts of the chairman of COP21, negotiators and delegations 5 of other countries. We fully support the final Paris agreement. Although the agreement is not perfect and needs to be further improved, it does not stop us from taking a historic step forward. So we are quite satisfied with the agreement."
Highlights of the agreement include calls for limiting global temperature increases to below 2 degrees Celsius 6 above pre-industrial levels, but it has an ultimate goal of keeping temperature rises below 1.5 degrees.
It has a goal of setting aside 100-billion US dollars a year for developing countries by 2020. The deal also calls for a review of each country's progress every 5 years.
Meanwhile, also speaking in Paris, China's Vice 7 Foreign Minister Liu Zhenmin called the climate change summit a milestone 8 in human history.
"The agreement is a third milestone document reached in the past 25 years by all countries' effort in negotiating on climate change. Its great significance is that the pact 9 has formulated 10 clear plans for the world on fighting against climate change after 2020, and it includes all kinds of work including funds and technology. It also abides 11 by the principle of common but differentiated 12 responsibilities for the developed countries and developing countries. "
In 1992, the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change was formed. Nations were bound to combat climate change, but without a detailed 13 action plan. In 1997, the Kyoto protocol 14 set out to cut global emissions 15 by about 5% by 2012 compared to 1990 levels. Due to disagreements, the pact did not become legal until 2004.
The Chinese Vice Foreign Minister said the new agreement can also help to guide China's future green development.
"As the world is to enter the era of low-carbon development and green development, China also faces the phase of economic transition and is seeking for a low-carbon and green development. In fact, the green development will be listed as one of China's five main development goals in the upcoming 13th Five Year Plan."
Special Representative Xie Zhenhua summed up China's resolve in creating an environmentally friendly future.
"For China, a responsible developing country, tackling climate change is not only the internal need for promoting its sustainable development, but also a responsibility for building the destiny community of human beings. China will actively 16 assume the obligations suited to its conditions and stage of development, continue to achieve the goals of dealing 17 with climate change before 2020, actively implement 18 independent contributions, and reach the peak of carbon emissions."
Nations must next ratify 19 or approve the deal individually.
It will only take effect if it is approved by 55 countries. Those countries' greenhouse gas emissions must represent 55% of the world's total.
