Introduction of the Forum

Shenzhen National Low Carbon City Forum (short in Forum) was founded in June 2013. Under the guidance of the National Development and Reform Commission, Ministry of Ecology and Environment, and the People's Government of Guangdong Province, this forum has been successfully held for 13 sessions, generating great domestic and international impacts; China's first carbon market set sail from here; and the Blue Sky Award in the Global Green and Low-carbon Field was released here.
