Global development is impossible without an energy transfer and the introduction of environmentally friendly technologies, and Russia needs to be considered if she wants to occupy a noticeable place in the world and ensure a decent life to its citizens. This was stated by a special representative of the President of the Russian Federation for relations with international organizations to achieve the goals of sustainable development Anatoly Chubais on the panel session of the Sberbank within the Eastern Economic Forum.
For two years, a small geopolitical revolution occurred in the world – for example, one and a half million dollar china declared the achievement of carbon neutrality by 2060, Chubais told. At the same time, the basis of the energy strategy of Russia’s development until 2035 is the export of coal to China to supply coal power plants.
“I am in memory I will remind the statement of SI Zinspin at the last global climate forum – from 2021 China takes under tight control any increase in coal consumption, and by 2025 its use begins. Our strategy failed, it cannot be implemented. There is Things on which we can influence, and those on which we cannot. In particular, to the Chinese climate agenda. Either we can continue to move toward the concrete wall, and then answer the miners left without work, or make conclusions, “- said Chubais.
Also, the special representative of the president stressed that the absolute majority of serious states in the world came out that the paradigm of brown growth was exhausted.
“It’s not and never will be. If we want large salary, pensions, the growth of the country’s weight in the world in the 21st century – for this there is one single way, it is called green. There is no other way and there will not be,” concluded Anatoly Chubais.
