The issue of greenhouse gases being emitted into the air is becoming more and more problematic as the world is becoming increasingly dependent on fossil fuels. It affects both people and their communities. These nations, influenced by high rates of pollution in the air, face a plethora of obstacles in obtaining a clean and environmentally friendly renewable energy system. Most developing countries do not have the funds to invest in such systems when thousands of citizens are impoverished, and most areas suffer from energy poverty.
Furthermore, science critics view these renewable energy sources, such as hydropower and wind power, as unreliable because of the fact that they are sporadic and unpredictable. The result of these saddening and unavoidable restrictions cause 7.3 million people to die each year because of fossil fuels. The international community cannot permit such toxic pollutants to contaminate the air. In China alone, 366,000 people die because of lethal chemicals spread throughout.
Despite these barriers, the People’s Republic of China has taken an active stance in the past few decades to combat these setbacks by implementing a variety of schemes and laws, cooperating with NGOs, and enforcing international actions. One of China’s priorities is providing access to renewable energy for all the citizens despite their economic status. China’s One Belt One Road agenda is driving the infrastructure investment along the ancient trade routes, which is leading to the country’s growth. As the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis (IEEFA) said, “China is setting itself up to dominate these sectors globally over the next several decades of this century.”

The country’s Five-Year-Plan put in place in 2015, seeks to ameliorate air quality by reducing the energy intensity by 15 percent or more within 2020, and 5 percent has already been decreased in the year of 2016. Because of this plan, China has poured more than 100 billion dollars every year into renewables, making it a leader in the global shift to renewable energy. The Government of China has formulated many comprehensive and integrated national programme’s to provide renewable energy to its regions. Many of these programme’s fund private energy companies to install solar power stations in residential government-owned areas to provide renewable electricity at the same cost.
Despite the efforts lead by the Government, China is having trouble transitioning from non-renewables, making up 75 percent of energy consumption. China is determined to eliminate greenhouse gasses completely and urges the international community to participate in this effort as well. China has worked relentlessly to restore the air in which its very citizens are breathing. Bearing in mind that the lives of our citizens are at risk, China, along with other countries has reaffirmed its long-lasting commitment to the Paris agreement. China has declared their willingness to assist developing countries to promote a globally clean and low-carbon energy transition, especially towards the sustainable, affordable, reliable and modern energy day services.
China, working with other leaders on the matter of global pollution, has also agreed to further deepen the partnership for peace, growth, and reform by comprehensively implementing the Paris treaty to the fullest. While China has not been part of any other agreement regarding renewable energy, China has hosted a multitude of conferences on greenhouse emissions such as the international conference on Environment, Green Energy and Sustainable Development (EGESD) or the international conference on Power System and Green Energy (PSGE). These conferences and other international actions taken by China have had a prodigious impact on renewables worldwide.
