Just and fair transitions to low-carbon and nature-positive ways of living need to occur fast enough to limit and reverse the climate and nature crises, but not so fast that the public is left behind. We propose the concept of “Regenerative Good Growth” (RGG) to replace the language and practice of extractive, bad GDP growth. RGG centres on the...

シリーズ激動中国　パリ協定後の気候変動政策：その44　躍進する中国再生エネルギー戦略（2）

In 隔月刊　地球温暖化
Author:
中国には約70万km²の砂漠が存在する。主に内モンゴル自治区、新疆ウイグル自治区、甘粛省、青海省、陝西省、寧夏回族自治区など西北部の省・自治区に分布し、その合計面積は国土面積の7.3％に相当する。新疆ウイグル自治区に位置するタクラマカン砂漠の面積は33.76万km²で、国内最大規模の砂漠であると同時に、世界第2位の流動砂漠でもある。 2023年11月28日、中国政府は、タクラマカン砂漠を封じ込むための総延長3,046kmの防砂グリーンベルトが完成したと発表した。完成まで40年以上の年月を要した本事業の背景として、著しい砂漠緑化技術の発展のほか、近年砂漠地域に着目した中国の再生可能エネルギー戦略の存在も指摘する必要がある。
