High-Level Roundtable with China's Ministry of Ecology and Environment and European Multinational Enterprises in China

On 16th November, the European Chamber and its member companies joined the high-level roundtable with the topic of "New journey, Green development", co-hosted by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment (MEE) and China News Service (CNS). During the meeting, the officials from the Ministry of Ecology and Environment (MEE) explained the spirit of the 20th Party Congress Report and introduced the essence of Xi Jinping's thoughts on ecological civilization as well as policies and measures related to the construction of China's carbon market.

It was highlighted that China will unswervingly promote a high level of opening up and insist on green, low-carbon, and high-quality development. The green recovery of the global economy is in line with China's goal of building an ecological civilization, and there is great potential for international cooperation on green development. China is ready to strengthen cooperation with European companies in China, to jointly participate in the process of building China's ecological civilisation and green, low-carbon, and high-quality development, and to promote the green recovery of the global economy.

During the Q&A session, member companies of multiple working groups proposed their questions and had an in-depth interaction with the heads of relevant departments of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment on topics such as multi-bilateral environmental cooperation, carbon market construction and green transformation of enterprises.
