In the past two days, a ** has become popular on social platforms, refreshing the cognition of many netizens. Some tourists went to Shaanxi to play, and photographed the local Yellow River is actually very clear, and there is a different landscape of "clear stream waterfall". This made many netizens ridicule, "How is it different from what is said in the textbook?"."Jumping into the Yellow River is also washed away."
Some informed netizens ran out to give everyone popular science, it turns out that winter is not the rainy season, and the upper reaches of the Yellow River itself are clear. However, it is undeniable that in recent years, the country has indeed paid great attention to environmental protection, and the vegetation coverage rate on both sides of major rivers such as the Yangtze River and the Yellow River has increased, and the mountains have become green and the water has become clearer.
In the matter of protecting the environment, China invests tens of billions or hundreds of billions of dollars every year, and at great cost, it has returned to lucid waters and lush mountains. Through subtle changes in the surrounding environment, we can improve everyone's happiness and achieve green and high-quality development.
As early as a few years ago, we put forward the goal of carbon peak by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060. Nowadays, the country is taking the lead, and all walks of life are working hard for it and actively assuming social responsibility. For example, in the obvious tram industry, BYD has released a set of data that in 2022, car owners will reduce emissions by 2.38 million tons, which is equivalent to planting 1300 million trees.
There is also the e-commerce industry, which everyone often comes into contact with, and is also insisting on green and sustainable development. For example, JD Logistics has reduced carbon emissions through green packaging and new energy logistics vehicles, among which, as of 2022, the cumulative number of times JD Logistics recyclable express packaging has exceeded 2200 million times. At the same time, it is also proposed to use 100% new energy logistics vehicles by 2030.
Vipshop, another e-commerce platform, many people only know that it has advantages in selling clothing and beauty, but in fact, Vipshop has been insisting on ESG development. From 2022 to September 30, 2023, Vipshop's own photovoltaic power generation has reached 1082292 megawatt hours, including its headquarters office and various logistics warehouses, are vigorously developing clean energy.
In terms of cost saving, Vipshop has developed recyclable green packaging, and at the same time is active. From 2022 to the end of the third quarter of last year, Vipshop** has accumulated more than 43 million cartons, reducing the use of cartons by more than 20,000 tons. It is no wonder that not long ago, MSCI, an international authoritative index agency, also upgraded Vipshop's ESG rating to "AA".
In addition to these examples, there are 1,771 listed companies in the A** market that have disclosed ESG reports, all of which regard carbon reduction as a top priority. This shows that in addition to creating commercial value, more large companies are actively undertaking social value and insisting on high-quality development.
Attaching importance to environmental protection and insisting on carbon reduction are invisible, and the benefits are invisible, and it is a good thing for the present and the future. As long as our homes are becoming more beautiful and greener bit by bit, everything is worth it.
