"Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets," the famous line put forward by President Xi Jinping in his earlier days as Communist Party chief of Zhejiang in 2005, has evolved into a guideline behind China's quest for a greener future through sustainable development.

Fifteen years on, the visions of Xi, who is also general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, about growing a rich trove of the "invaluable assets" have witnessed the positive change of landscape, as well as far-reaching harmonization of a huge economy and the bountiful nature.
China saw a significant improvement in its ecological environment amid anti-pollution efforts and a push for green development. Its efforts in promoting green ecology have earned global recognition. The United Nations Environment Programme decided to promote China's philosophy of ecological progress in February 2013 and released a report on China's strategies and practices in the field in 2016.
【中华人民共和国国务院新闻办公室|2020-08-17 14:20:14来源:Xinhua】With Xi at the helm, China's green development has picked up the pace and become more prominent in top-level designs and master plans.
During the past few years, the country has adopted more innovative financing models to support a sustainable economy. It has further developed its green bond market, established a national green development fund and launched a national carbon market.
As Xi has required, more should be done to accelerate institutional innovation and strengthen the implementation of institutions to help form a green way of production and living.
Amid efforts to improve mechanisms, the country solicited public opinions on revising the green bond catalog in May and intended to exclude "clean utilization of fossil fuels" from the list, marking an important step in its increasing alignment with global standards.
This was followed by the announcement to establish the country's first dedicated company to raise funds for green development. In July, the National Green Development Fund Co., Ltd. was put into operation with a total registered capital of 88.5 billion yuan (about US$12.75 billion), aiming to support areas such as pollution control, conservation of energy and resources, green transportation and clean energy.
Another innovative exploration of China is the development of a national carbon emission trading market, which was launched in 2017 after piloting it in seven provinces and cities in 2011. The idea behind its launch was to explore market-based mechanisms to control greenhouse gas emissions.
