【新唐人2011年12月13日讯】11号落幕的联合国德班气候大会,最终达成一份协议,决定延长《京都议定书》的有效期。在最后阶段,中国代表团团长解振华因为与欧盟意见不一致,而情绪激动、失态发火,声称:你们有什么资格给我讲道理?下面请看本台记者的报导。
这场在南非海边城市德班召开的联合国气候大会,原定9号结束,但因为与会各国对部分议题分歧很大,引发争论,会议被迫延长。
1997年制定的《京都议定书》,将在明年到期,由于《京都议定书》存在严重缺陷,没有对污染严重的发展中国家做出减排限制,也和目前全球经济格局不符。因此,欧盟提出一份新的减排路线图,计划在2015年前完成,希望发展中国家能够承担相应责任。
这一提议让中国代表团团长、国家发改委副主任解振华大为光火。而解振华的发火,却也不是第一次。在前年(2009年)的哥本哈根联合国气候大会上,解振华就曾经恼火的说:你有什么资格来跟我谈?
大陆官网曾经发表文章“环境污染事故频发 中国人该向谁发火”。解振华发火,不禁引人思考,那些深受环境污染之害的大陆老百姓该去向谁发火呢?
多年来,大陆当局希望通过发展经济保稳定、维持统治,为GDP,不顾老百姓的人身安全和生态保护,造成极其严重的环境污染。 《财经国家周刊》报导,仅长江沿岸就有40多万家重污染企业。 2007年沿岸废水排放量达300亿吨,相当于每年有一条黄河水量的污水排入长江。
沿岸居民受到“怪味”、“恶臭”的袭击,出现各类疾病。江苏常州春江镇新华村共有6000人,从2004到2008年,身患各种癌症的就有近200人,远高于正常人群。而这样的“癌症村”现在已经遍及全中国。
著名环保志愿者胡佳对《新唐人》指出,中国采用的环保标准很低,比如,美国实行空气悬浮微粒PM2.5的污染标准,而大陆则是PM10。他认为,大陆人口众多、能源稀少,实际上最需要节能减排。
胡佳:“国际社会许多其他国家实施的较为严格的,对于我们这样高能耗、高污染的生活和生产方式,有借鉴价值的那些标准,我们现在还没有积极的去采纳、实施。”
《中国新闻网》报导,中国已经成为全球最大的温室气体排放国。大陆气候谈判专家何建坤表示,2010年中国的能源消费占全球比重为20%﹔而二氧化碳排放量占全球比重高达23%。为此,美、欧等发达国家要求中国加入全球减排协议,共同承担责任。
胡佳:“我们的‘万元能耗’,是美国、尤其是日本的5、6倍,我们实在是还有很大的潜力可挖。我们应该跟国际是接轨的,而不是抱残守缺的、非得要一个缓存立限的这样一个宽限期。我们可以尽量缩短这个宽限期,变压力为动力,让这个国家的国民能更早的享受到高能而低耗的能源配给、一种工业结构。”
《德国之声》中文网报导,德班大会194个国家最后达成协议,决定让《京都议定书》进入“第二承诺期”。相对于早就已经接受减排任务的发达国家,中国和印度等发展中国家要到2017年、最迟2020年才会有减排任务。

Durban: Chinese Member Angry Again
On December 11, the UN Climate Conference in Durban
has ended.
An agreement was finally reached,
deciding to extend the validation of “Kyoto Protocol."
In the final stage, Xie Zhenhua, the Chinese delegation head,
got emotionally agitated due to disagreement with the EU.
He said: “What qualifications do you have to talk about
reasons with me?” Here is more from our correspondents.
UN’s Climate Conference held in the seaside city of Durban,
South Africa, was scheduled to end on December 9.
However, there were big differences in opinions
on some issues among the participating countries.
The conference was forced to extend,
because of some controversies.
The “Kyoto Protocol" enacted in 1997 will expire
in the next year.
It has some serious flaws, like emission restrictions
for seriously polluted developing countries.
Plus, it doesn’t reflect the current global
economic situation.
Therefore, the EU proposed a new method for emission
reduction, planning to be completed by 2015.
And it hopes the developing countries
will take responsibility for the relevant duties.
The proposal angered Xie Zhenghua, Chinese delegation head and
deputy director of Chinese NDRC (National Development and Reform Commission).
Xie Zhenghua’s anger is not something new.
In the Copenhagen UN Climate Conference in 2009, Xie got
known for the words: “What makes you qualified to talk with me?”
Mainland’s official website has published an article,
“Environmental pollution accidents happen frequently, whom should the Chinese people is angry at?”
Xie’s anger made people think: who should those suffering
seriously from the environmental pollution be angry at?
Chinese authorities are focused on maintaining stability
and ruling by economic development.
They ignore people’s personal safety and ecological
protection, this leading to severe environmental pollution.
“National Financial Weekly" reported only along Yangtze River,
there are over 400 thousand enterprises of serious pollution.
The wastewater discharge along the river totals 30 billion tons,
equivalent to the annual water volume of the Yellow River.
The residents along the river are subjected to strange smells,
stenches and pollutants, causing variety of diseases.
There are 6000 residents in Xinhua Village, Chunjiang Town,
Changzhou, Jiangsu.
From 2004 to 2008, nearly 200 of them suffered from various
cancers, which is far higher than that of a normal population.
These kinds of “cancer villages” now exist throughout China.
Hu Jia, a renowned environmental protection volunteer,
said to NTD, China’s environmental standards are very low.
For example, the air pollution standard for suspended particles
in America is PM2.5. However, in mainland China is PM10.
He thinks there is a huge population and energy scarcity
in mainland China.
In fact, China urgently needs to take actions
about energy conservation and emission reduction.
Hu Jia: “Many other countries in the international community
implement these more stringently.
For us, living and producing at such high energy consumption
and high pollution rates, those standards are worth referencing.
However, we are not active in adopting
and implementing them as yet.”
“China News" reported that the mainland has become
the largest country of greenhouse gas emission in the world.
He Jiankun, China’s climate negotiator, said that in 2010,
China’s share of global energy consumption accounts for 20%.
While the proportion of total global carbon dioxide emission
accounts for up to 23%.
Thus the US, EU and other developed countries ask China
to join the global emission reduction agreement, and share the responsibilities.
Hu Jia: “Our energy consumption per RMB 10 thousand
is 5 to 6 times that of America or Japan.
We really have great potential to be tapped.
We should consider the international standards, rather than
being conservative, with a long period of buffering.
We should try our best to shorten this buffering period,
turning the pressure into motivation.
It will make the people in this country enjoy an energy supply
with high efficiency, low consumption, and industrial structure.”
Deutsche Welle in Chinese reported, the 194 countries
in Durban finally reached an agreement.
They deciding to extend the “Kyoto Protocol"
for a “second commitment period."
Compared to developed countries that already accept duties
of emission reduction,
countries like China and India will not have emission
reduction duties until 2017, or even 2020.
